Average immigrant hate piece by the sun

Upset at a rapist? No.

Upset at a newspaper? Yes.

Okay.

Ignore them, they react with anger because they cannot spend 5 seconds thinking about it.

Why not both?

Ask them why they didn’t do the important one?

If you don’t want people to be distracted by shitty right wing sources, the easiest solution would be using better sources…

Ginja@lemmy.world on 12 Oct 23:08 collapse

The source is fine, it’s your priorities that are wrong.

givesomefucks@lemmy.world on 12 Oct 23:11 collapse

The source is fine

It’s literally not…

It’s fine. You just hate it because of it’s right bias.

Left or right doesn’t really enter into it from a moderating standpoint, but yeah, tabloid articles tend to lean into sensationalism over facts.

Not as bad as AMERICAN tabloids which would be flat out removed:

But man, things like the Sun and the Daily Mirror do walk a thin line.

I’m following the list you gave, so I’m trying my best here. It’s the exact same rating as the Guardian.

The only difference is left/right.

Oh, I know, which is why I didn’t remove it.

I’m just saying that the British tabloid press definitely has a reputation, and because of that, you will get complaints.

They aren’t as bad as the US tabloids, but still. If you find a good story on a tabloid site, you might want to consider finding it through a different source.

I have the same problem here in Oregon. KPTV is and has been an excellent news source, but they’re also a Fox affiliate, so I’m always like “Yeah, better see if I can find that from somewhere else…” Same problem with Sinclair stations.

Rapists are bad and I am glad this guy is heading to rot in a dark place. but the Sun does a great job of highlighting in every paragraph and the cover photo that he is non white for transparent reasons. They spend endless hours also posting articles about “woke agenda” bullshit.

I think this is the second day in a row I’ve seen you posting anti-immigrant tabloid stories.

Ginja@lemmy.world on 13 Oct 03:24 collapse

Your welcome to post pro-migration stories.

Yeah, is this really “world news”? smh.

“I am pleased that justice has been served for them and for the wider community who will be protected from this dangerous offender for many years.”

The seems pretty tone-deaf by the detective.

I don’t think either raped youth is satisfied with the "justice served’ in this instance.

is this real?

BBC is reporting on it also:
