You mean how actual journalism has been taken over by small mom and pops organizations while the Boomers still think News Media on TV is relevant. The problem wasn't how Journalism was done, the problem was it was bought out by extreme political parties *on both sides*. This is actually your fault Boomer, years of news perversion was done *BY YOUR GENERATION*. We're just trying to fix everything you guys fucked up while you side behind me screaming "I DON'T LIKE CHANGEEEEE".

I was in a video archive in Brussels and watched the footage of Bloody Sunday taken by foreign correspondents. Unedited recordings. So when I see English versions it is disturbing to see how deceitful the BBC can be. Having grown up in the Soviet Union I can recognise lying government propaganda. No surprise then that a mostly mono lingual English population has such delusions about the World and their relative position or importance. Their government controlled media and ruling class has carefully lied to them their entire lives. George Orwell only had to expand this a little to imagine 1984.

Many comment here that modern mainstream media do not run informative and seemingly unbiased shows like this anymore. Much of that has to do with the viewership itself. Very few seek information and the depths of complex issues. Instead they prefer to be entertained, to have small portions of information (the gist of it) and the worse part is that they seek trusted pundits to help formulate their opinions for them. Dissent and curiosity is become rarer and it is not from any wide conspiracy or cabal of elites, it is driven from the common person who has themselves to blame for what it is they seek.

Libya's hatred for Britain moved them to send the AK's & explosives. This officer was so wrong. The loyalist's only had a small amount of weapons donated by the army & some bought with drug money.

@BemusedBarfly Do you actually think the average irish person had a clue what lisbon treaty was about? You're the parrot it would seem. Ask any irish person why they voted for lisbon. Honestly mate just be real and ask. Dont kid yourself. Anyone reading this ask someone irish why they voted for Lisbon treaty. The answers will make you laugh out loud. Im not being smart. Just try it. See how many will say they were concerned about neutrality first time around. We've nothing to be concerned about now cos the f ing country is out of our control . We're neutral now alright 😂. Dead in the water. Lisbon was rerun cos they didn't like the outcome. Its an amazing claim to say what you just said. Can you provide some evidence for your claim?

The one issue that I always had with British journalists and Ireland is their constant inaccuracy in refereeing to northern Ireland as 'Ulster'. The six counties are indeed part of Ulster but the province consists of nine counties, not just the occupied six.

He/She who ignores history is condemned to repeat it. The English have never learned that if any bad decision on policy returns to bite them in the arse, it's North of Ireland. Sadly that is becoming evident to us right now as the intent to make an open access/Irish identity has backfired enormously due to Brexit.

@@jumbojiggalo9576 - in a way, I hope you're right. Here in Leeds we have our differences, we just get on with them best we can by comparison. Much of it involving North of Ireland I agree had been a propaganda war; a classic example being the BBC and World in Action Footage of The Maze/Long Kesh in 1980 which was turned on it's head for use in Pro-Republican Murals and other material. It was left to people's imaginations that all people locked up at Long Kesh were killers, many of them though were not, merely convicted for handling/possessing weapons and explosives. Dangerous yes, but not quite to the extent that was suggested or generalised.

Brian - as a rule, The English colonized lands that were divided or in factions. That way they met no real mass organised resistance; Scotland being among them with clans. Many wonder how they achieved such power and status, well, that's how. At least The Germans were brave or even reckless enough to meet organised resistance despite the atrocities they themselves committed. In the case of North of Ireland, even though it isn't publicly stated, Dublin wouldn't wish to inherit it as it would breed another troubles due to Loyalist resistance and the whole 70's cycle is reborn. Something as incurable as this can only be left to dissolve of it's own natural accord i.e. folk get wise to it and ditch the thing. Many people in England settled from Irish Catholic North never speak about returning there. It is a huge, bitter political irony that they feel safer, saner and more warmly received by people in "The Land of The Enemy" free from Hyperbolic Propaganda put about by opposing sides.

No one side was perfect, after WW1, those returning Irosh soldiers who had fought against the Germans were shunned and most had to move, either over to mainland Britain or to a less hostile part of Ireland. Even after Irish independence, there was a movement that rose up and became the IRA (this differs from those who gained their independence in 1922, they stopped any campaign against the British).
