  1. Who can take any news source seriously that calls an arab an asian..this to me shows their main focus is surrealism, not news and fact.

  2. How do journalists sleep at night? Is there a special pill they take to help them live with themselves?

  3. Make stuff up that appeals to some people’s nasty views of others - that sells.

  4. But how do you know it wasn’t a hate crime? To be honest it’s more likely than not in Dewsbury.

    And WL Mackenzie Redux, why do you think Amar was an Arab? His family are from Pakistan. Which is in Asia.

  5. The headline reads: “Gang ‘boasted’ about jumping on head of teenager killed in park ‘happy slap’ attack”.
    Was it changed?
