Disection of balance in a media 'storm'





Here's a link to an interesting and informative article from Newsnet, one of the independent media sites in Scotland, reviewing how BBC Scotland reacted to former First Minister and current SNP MP Alex Salmond answering a direct question from a BBC politics journalist in London.  It's worth a look.

    Interesting read... though to be very honest, had worked the salient points out for myself when I watched the news last week - saw the interview, saw the subsequent reporting and any thinking person would have realised there was 'cherrypicking' going on. Learned long ago not to take anything the media tells me as a fact... YAM xx
