ITK, no doubt some negatives do, and will occur in all walks of life, even (heaven forbid) in some press-media cesspit circles ?
So, constant refs to-and-from PROVEN unreliable Mob Rule tabloids distorting-not-reporting, just feeds their profits made by climate-of-fear Mass Deception, not for Public Protection.
To be open and honest, personally one does also refer to such sources, but only as a start-point/opening gambit, certainly not the final word.
As earlier and often rightly stated on this fine not-for-profit KinOfHit$ Chan - the prime purpose of news-media is not to report news, but to 'sell media'.
Of course there is "spin" but any news organisation that fabricates the news will soon be discredited.
The "spin" with the Olympics is usually PRO - not anti ! (For example the BBC have told staff NOT to be negative about the Olympics as witnessed by myself backstage at the recent Radio One Hackney weekend where all performers were warned not to say anything that was not supportive to the event).
If the word on the street is "chaos" AFTER the spinning (in order to find some positive) ... oh my gawd !
Shows EXACTLY what's largely hidden now from the greater public in almost ALL publicly-funded & commercial media, supposedly 'open', in fact pre-set TV & Radio debates; including phone-ins/phones-in.
Amounting now to 'Totalitarian-Tabloid TV & Radio' plus print-and-online crims & pimps, of whom Putin might be proud.
Rightful insights also endorsed by another too rare, truthful rebel, true Brit/true-Scot St. Galloway of Dundee (and all-points global) after 'Live' on-air trashing both Newsnight/Paxman ("don't insult the people of Bethnal Green"), and ITN ("Ur a bunch of liars").
He announced: " Commercial media and the BBC are now just two cheeks of the same backside - breaking wind ! "
