    2023 Journalism = Churnalism
    .. They take PR material that pushes agendas
    & lazily cutNpaste it into articles
    “left Italy’s ski resorts”
    changed to “left French ski resorts”

    Has anyone seen anything about this book. “Undercover Killers at the BBC” author Paul Atkinson?

    https://northwestbylines.co.uk/lifestyle/undercover-killers-at-the-bbc-by-paul-atkinson-a-review/

    There was a vicious murder in Cheshire. Two of the killers had carried out work for the BBC, notably an episode of “Crooked Britain”. The killers had “set up” the owner of a print company into printing forged banknotes in order to secretly film him for the BBC. There seems to have been improper use of Police data etc etc, please read the link.

    The murder of Brian Waters was particularly brutal.

    The BBC article implies the Barrow woman Ellie Williams invented a made up Asian grooming gang and smashed herself with a hammer.
    Guilty of 8 counts of perverting the course of justice.
    Including one she plead guilty to.

    It did seem remarkable at the time that the police said they didn’t believe her.
