radar Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I heard him being interviewed on R4 this lunchtime. He sounds like he found it all quite amusing at the time (the made up celeb stories). I've not bought a newspaper for years, not even a 'proper one', for this reason. Whats the point, if you cant believe whats written? The Daily Star had apparently had 48 libel cases in 4 years! He says he is now collaborating on a TV sitcom about the newspaper business, the cynic in me is saying that this is some 'good' publicity for him. I heard that interview too and interesting how he said they had twenty minutes to come up with a story and so he claims he made one up there and then. The best of it is he got £150 for the lie he created, amazing journalism. Their main target seems to have been Muslims, just the sort of crap that then gets repeated by the bigots on here virtually word for word at times.

Jason Bourne Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 What motivates them to generate the racist rubbish they come out with, and why do we let them get away with it? I can think of six million reasons why our pro-Israeli media demonise Muslims, but I can't mention them lest I be condemned as an anti-semite. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mj.scuba Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Lol so the press publish negative stories about Muslims because the Jews want them to, not because Muslims ever do anything bad. Ever. That would be funny if you were not serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mj.scuba Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 It is alleged that the media demonise Muslims because of a perceived pro-Israel agenda. Some negative stories about Muslims might be made up, don't pretend they all are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some negative stories about Muslims might be made up, don't pretend they all are. i for one have never stated they ALL are made up, however ive always had the notion that NOT everything in the media is how it seems and should be taken with a pinch of salt, i dont live my life according to the news........unlike some. and sadly NONE of us will ever know whats the truth, whats lies and whats partly true so............. is it fair to HATE all muslims cos of things we read, that may or may not be true? seems like fools folly to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vResistance Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Daily Star reporter Richard Peppiatt has resigned in protest at the paper's anti-Muslim propaganda. Then the reporter starts to get abusive messages from the racists:roll: http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/mar/08/ex-daily-star-reporter-hate-messages Interesting.
