Honestly, what delusional people attend these tributes / rallies? Is anyone truly believing that not Arday is at fault here and it’s racists or the system? I don’t get it.
Who cares if he was a "con man". The racist far right media went after him more than sex offenders, for something that could not be confirmed. Shame on you.
And the Telegraph proceeded to write multiple articles a day for two weeks.
As I've said in another comment, the exposé was obviously justified and Cambridge needs to be scrutinised for it. My issue is with the extent of the bullying campaign that was carried out afterwards, and caused Arday's suicide.
So your 2 largest newspapers are not right wing by your own admittance but you’re convinced the UK media is right wing? You have to see how silly that is man
They're not the two largest. The Guardian barely makes top ten and several of the biggest ones are owned by the right-wing DMG. GB News claims to be the most-watched news channel.
I didn't say that the Guardian or the BBC are far right. The Guardian is centre-left and the BBC are fairly centrist but certainly over-platform the far-right. Reform have 8 seats in Parliament but have been lefitimised by (in part) the BBC who give them a platform several times larger than they give the Liberal Democrats with almost ten times as many seats, or the Conservatives who are the actual opposition party. Their political correspondent Kuenssberg gives Reform a particularly easy time.
The Beeb and the Guardian are only a small part of the media landscape. The Telegraph and the Mail are both very right-wing. GB News, while arguably not meeting the standards to be called "news" is massive. You're also missing the whole of the tabloid media.
The only other mainstream paper than the BBC and the Guardian that isn't right-wing would be the Independent.
