Compare and Contrast: the Damian Green debacle
According to the BBC: "The Tories say they understand counter-terrorism officers were involved in searches of his home and offices."
The "Tories" "say" they "understand" According to the Guardian:
"counter-terrorism police arrested the shadow Home Office minister, Damian Green"
"nine counter-terrorism officers conducted simultaneous searches at four locations: Green's constituency office and home in Ashford, Kent, his office in the House of Commons and his London home."
Sounds pretty factual to me.
The same BBC that can give us accounts of mistreatment in Iraqi jails, can report endlessly on injustice in the US system cannot verify and report as fact the misuse of power in the nation's capital. Why? Save Gordon.
(anyone curious why the Guardian should be a repository of fact on this topic should consider that the Guardian actually needs to be credible to retain paying customers, and has often made its way from being anti-establishment rather than just leftist.)
