I love the way they go foraging for racism and act like they have struck gold when they (think) they have found it so they can go into outraged mode. 

Its the ones with the guilty feeling who go chasing to be called a racist you have to look out for. "what me??!!" "No not you" "Oh but you mean me" "Nobody gives a fuck what you think" "Shitbag" "Ok" "See coward" "Why are you so bothered?" "Just say what you mean shitbag" "You're a bit of a dick?" "See shitbag" .......

She is very convenient for centrists and right wingers though , as despite only being the co-editor of a self started insignificant news outlet she would appear to represent the views of every person who can even spell socialism.

 

Urgh!

 

Come on, right wingers are facists, EDL, Five Star Party, and Nazi's, the Bolsanaro's & Orban's of this world not someone who hold vaguly similar views to you, but deviate on the fine print.

The back peddling has been hilarious.  Loads dived straight in and then had to resort to ‘don’t be mean’ after calling him all sorts. 
 

Although when he dies and stories about him fiddling with kids come out they’ll be back saying ‘told you so’. 

I alwys thought (well, since Frost) he woudl be great as Josef Fritzl.

That Kerry-Anne Mendoza has a tremendous success rate of being wrong about everything.

Just look at her follow up after being called out on it.

 

Rather than say “sorry, I got this one wrong” the people pointing out the truth are in fact part the issue.

I’ve just had a read through some and it’s astounding the levels of shifting, turning and absolute nonsense being spouted.

That is your definition of right wing ? You don't think there are lots of right wing people in this country at the moment , starting with the government , who are happy to use idiots like Mendoza in this spurious ' attack on woke ' ?

Yes, and we’re doing their work by using such nonsense terms to define against each other.

Smug, self-righteous 'I care too much' dickhead. She wouldn't know what to do if she had to leave her 6th form college bubble.

A bugbear of mine is when the likes of Mendoza are called journalists, same with Owen Jones. There's a big difference between writing and being a journalist, the latter have to serve their time learning a trade and part of that is being able to be dispassionate, objective and checking facts. Having your own mouthpiece isn't the same thing.

Absolutely. One have a trade the other is a gobshite making a living off being contrary when you know

deep down they don’t even believe their own spittle. See Owen Jones, Hopkins, Lawrence fox, Larry Elder .....

I'm embarrassed that Owen Jones is on the left. Cannot stand the guy. 

 

Unfortunately all you need to become a journalist these days is some embarrassing levels of self worth, delusional and toxic character traits, an internet connection and a Twitter account. 

 

Fact check stories? Nope. Just push whatever angle you can and hope throwing shit sticks to the wall.

Totally agree though there seems to be an inevitable career  arc with opinion writers where they say more and more extreme things until they libel somebody and get sacked.

Seems to be loads of them now, virtually every one of them hideous. That said you’d be hard pressed to find anybody who talks as much shite as Hitchens. He said the other week that Blair was “Olympically dim” Now Tony Blair is many, many things dependent upon your viewpoint but dim is quite fucking clearly not one of them.
