I'm getting a bit confused now. You said earlier that it wasn't in the press, but now you're saying you only found out about it because of the press?

Re: Protesting, and the power of the media.
Has the turnout by Plymouth fans to protect the Churchill statue in Plymouth had a mention? That’s taking things to another level now. Far right getting involved too, during a pandemic. Crazy

I found out about it because of social media, I looked at the press at the time and found nothing, just like tweeters were saying.

There's stats upon stats, cases upon cases to back it up, whereas what you've got is an incident in Ireland that Karen from Dublin and John from Wexford have shouted WHITE LIVES MATTER at on Twitter, and you've tried to shoehorn that into a debate on the Black Lives Matter movement and you've made yourself look a bit silly.
You are not giving this guy a fair trail already, previous cases not involving him does not necessarily mean this case is racially motivated, it might turn out that way, but you don't know that.

There is no American collusion with Russia, Russia just won that particular espionage battle and influenced America and American voters to do what Mother Russia wants.

Churchill monuments you would expect would be a target as that guy has an abysmal record on race.

I've just signed out to have a look. I can see trending items- the top three are K-pop, then it's Vietnam and then Jake (I don't know who Jake is but it's listed under celebrities).
Underneath there is some Covid news and then some other American news - all of them have photo credits from news agencies, so I would assume the stories are also from mainstream news outlets.
So how are you getting your information? Are you just searching things like "Irish boy stabbed" and hoping to pick up a story?

Not far off actually, I will put something in their search engine, Portland riots or Churchill statue for example and go from there, i was reading about the BLM riots when I seen something about the Russian model, obviously I had to check her out as there are some smart Russian ladies about and Russian involvement in disrupting America by getting involved with black causes etc has been documented by some observers, while surfing that story I then seen somebody say about the problems in Ireland, all interesting but disturbing stuff.
Check out seasoned journalists like Frisk and Pilger, check out RT and Press TV for a different perspective, check out Al Jazeera and Vice tv, don't just listen to Fox news and the British broadcasting company, get a range of news and views is the way to go butt.

Fox News are generally unwatchable, but they were the only news organisation in the world that covered the Obama administration's attempt to overthrow the Trump presidency, which tells you a lot about the current state of the media. I think you could go as far to say that they were even trying to cover it up.

Generally unwatchable you say, yes exactly.
