There were those who were investigated in the UK not so many years ago when the frenzy of 'Operation Yew Tree' was up and running. Some of our journalists had them tarred and feathered even when they weren't charged with any offences! DISGRACEFUL! In some cases, the US Criminal Justice System has already become a media circus and a farce. Yeah, it was a joke. The media were salivating when the police visited Cliff Richard's house. They were livestreaming it from above and everything. The bloke never even got arrested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw an article in the news about Russell Brand the other day and the headline said something like "Disgraced Russell Brand speaks out". He's not even been charged by the police, let alone appeared in a courtroom. Seems to depend on whether or not the right wing tabloids look at you favourably witness the now unchallenged and accepted paradigm that Corbyns Labour Party was a hotbed of racist antisemitism without the slightest evidence of it being so. Russell Brand was hated by the right wing tabloids Edited April 29 by Ridgewalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
