Crazy how Mehdi Hasan is just such a flagrant liar when he knows the other guy can't prove him wrong. Claiming "London is a very British city", that the British aren't losing their culture, or that the English aren't a minority there are just not true statements. Despicable.

After a stabbing targeting two Jews in London, Mehdi Hasan went on British TV and called Jewish support for Israel a “problem” and "a conversation that has to be had." Really? THAT'S the conversation we need to have? Not the people who are stabbing Jews in the streets, but the fact that there are Jews who support Israel? It's always the Jews fault, isn't it, Mehdi Hasan?

Mehdi Hasan's full interview on Sky News this morning Where he introduces Mehdi Hasan "There's a gap in this market. There are underserved communities, groups, voters, readers, viewers, who aren't happy with the British media" "I'm not anti mainstream media.. We can compliment what mainstream media is doing in the independent space" "It's what you're not doing well that we want to do better" "We see media playing both sides journalism on issues that are not really both sides, like racism, the genocide in Gaza, and right now the war in Iran" "This isn't a criticism of individual journalists, we're here at Sky where I think Alex Crawford has done a fantastic job covering the middle east" "But overall institutionally if you look at outlets coverage, it's not been as blunt about what is going on" "Lots of journalists think we are raising the bar, raising the standards, we are also about media accountability" "We journalists talk about finding the truth, that is what our viewers want, but then we hit certain topics and say we can't say the truth because it might upset this or that faction, this or that person in power" "We have this fake definition of impartiality, we must always say X says something, Y says something, even when when Y is lying" "We get to a point where we need to call out lies" "We see that in the coverage of Gaza, in the US with Trump. The media really struggles with a president who lies every day" "People are fed up of that" "Allowing the right to turn the murder of Henry Nowak into an immigration story when the guy who killed him was born in the UK, his father was born in the UK" "It's a real problem when one side is just lying about what is going on" "We shouldn't pretend impartiality means we should take a middle position between two sides" "Take the genocide for example. The number of times Sky or other broadcasters have given Israel a pass. Or taken an Israeli denial as fact, when we know its not fact" "The humanising of one side of the conflict. I think it's undeniable. The British media humanises Israeli victims of violence more than Palestinian victims of violence" "I'm worried about the state of American democracy"

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Mehdi Hasan destroys fmr Israeli ambassador Danny Ayalon on Gaza famine Ayalon denied any famine in Gaza and blamed everything on Hamas propaganda. Mehdi hit him with the IPC’s official famine declaration in Gaza City, using the exact same criteria they used in Sudan last year. When Ayalon claimed the IPC “changed the criteria,” Mehdi kept pressing: “What criteria did they change?”. Then Mehdi dropped the hammer: over 100 major humanitarian groups, all say Israel is blocking aid trucks and baby formula at the crossings. Ayalon’s response? “They’re all wrong. They’re naive. They’re using Hamas data.” Mehdi: “A hundred aid groups are all wrong, Danny? Do you realize how silly you sound?” Brutal. Mehdi is a beast. Source: zeteo on YT / Writer: Sol

Jant Brown on Albertans "And there is a big group of voters out there who don't necessarily want to separate from Canada, but neither are they happy with Alberta's relationship with Canada now." "Here is those voters who aren't sure separation's the right idea but aren't really happy with the status quo either. "...One of the interesting findings was if you look sort of down at the economic breakdown of groups, separatists tend to be people with high incomes who are having difficulty meeting their month expenses, people who are doing well but want to do better, people who just feel that Canada rules regulations, impact on the oil and gas sector, things that are hampering economic growth." Perhaps Janet could poll about perceptions of how CBC anti-Alberta coverage is weighing on those decisions Janet Brown
