Bit annoying that we're collateral damage there. Contacted them?

Re: Good article, wrong photo?
My personal thoughts on the picture and article/paper is that certain news outlets do such things on purpose the so and so's(I wouldn't mind adding a Sweary Dave word of choice here but I'm restricted). BBC do such things quite alot (again just My opinion and there are others) and I'd put my money on it that the photo has a hand of the rich and powerful behind it.

Re: Good article, wrong photo?
BIt harsh that - we all know that certain newspapers have an agenda and will attempt to portray certain types as the problem and the cause of woes
I have not read this article so cannot comment further but the general point about the media being controlled by the wealthy who have their ownn agenda is a firmly established fact rather than a conspiracy theory
He may or he may not be correct on this article/publication but claiming it is hardly so outlandish it requires a tin foil hat reference [IMHO]
For balance its also possible that its a stock picture chosen by an algorithm and no real thought went into it

Re: Good article, wrong photo?
I could be wrong.. just a general trend I've noticed over the years. Maybe just a totally innocent stock photo!!

Tend to agree With you there, The press and the BBC are renowned for having narrative, especially up here.redefined_cycles wrote: ↑Sat Aug 08, 2020 3:00 pm I could be wrong.. just a general trend I've noticed over the years. Maybe just a totally innocent stock photo!!
