NathanScottPhillips posted:Thanks but that's not the same? We were talking about people being murdered since 2005 by Islamic terrorism. Can we stay on topic and talk about Islamic rapes and sexual violence since 2005? I think there was a big story about the police protecting child abuse because of fears about being labeled "racist." As someone who recently was called racist by UK citizens for not even mentioning race in any way, I sympathize with that hesitation. have you tried not being a massive oval office?

Alchenar posted:If you want to know more, the Home Office publishes quarterly statistics here. Terrorism is a real ongoing threat and we've gotten very lucky over the years. Hmm, average arrest numbers are slightly higher than one person every two days but only 1 in 5 is convicted of anything. That's not great really, given the general atmosphere of fear and excessive surveillance we have.

Hey guys I have some very strong opinions about a group of people based on facts which I have assumed but can't be hosed to actually look up for myself. I know what I said is true though because I said it. No I don't know what word you could use to describe prejudice in a racial context, why do you ask?

If we don't have arms..... how are we typing?nothing to seehere posted:I know that at least in one seat the local Labour party were out campaigning today and got some disapproval over it. I guess today is perhaps a little poo poo if they're in Lancashire but otherwise gently caress it, politics hasn't stopped, the election isn't delayed and the Tories are going to delay as long as possible it seems to avoid having to defend their terrible record on everything.

To survive, you must become the most aggressive story hunter no matter the cost. It's more important to write the story first than it is to have the most accurate or most indepth one.

Also the every day street paps will endanger lives by driving dangerously pursuing famous people, break laws to get topless pictures and corrupt the police just for a bit of info so yeah journalism is neither a principled nor reliable profession.

Even the most idiot loving sovcit fortunately doesn't seem to want to spend four hours explaining the intricacies of Condition 4 (b) of the shotgun certificate to security at Tesco's. (Also it contains 'reasonable' a lot, so they'd be hosed.)

I mean, I knew people who wanted to become journalists. They wanted to be part of the political process, or be watchdogs searching out corruption or injustice, or something like that. I don't ever remember "I want to be a journalist so I can make a woman who's lost her family cry live on air for ratings".

Who becomes a journalist to torture the victims of tragedies? Door stepping is the worst. Unfortunately for the most part the two types of people who end up doing it the most are the interns and young reporters who are compelled into doing it due to a toxic culture that treats it both as a right of passage, and also the understanding that if they don't do it then their careers will come to an end at that point, and the true scumbags of journalism - those who have proven to have some skill at doing it and have no qualms about doing it. The first group are seen as being unfortunate, but most journo's have that sort of complex where they've been through the same process so it's normalised to them. The second group is pretty much reviled and treated with distrust by other journo's - but for various reasons seem to be the ones who in turn end up taking up editorial positions. Journalism is pretty toxic.

Everyone goes into journalism with these big idealised notions of what they're going to do, but they all end up making compromises because they feel like this is the thing they have to do as a trade off to get to the stories that matter. Eventually they end up becoming desensitised to it, and the big ideals they had get replaced with cynicism and self justification.
