They quoted lines from actual articles. Broke it down. Did you do the same?

And I read that article you posted. Have you?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh and no I haven't read the times article simply because I can't be arrrrsed to register.

Mentions 48 surveys, does say who sees who what way, rather just generally say White men in their 20s are seen as having the worse traits.

Now you asked is this fueling racism. No it isn't. It's a report on how a random group of people see people in general. The lack of information in the article is telling.

You will see that the survey shows generally older people are viewed favourable and younger people aren't.

And the point of the article is?

My point is we can all find articles where a particular race is mentioned in a negative light. Point is it has nothing to do with the actual thread does it

That article isn't reporting young white man in a negative light.

What's the difference between that article and the one you brought up regarding the Asisn naked and priest exactly?

Why were the race and religion mentioned of the teenagers when other have done the same without their race and religion coming into it? What they were doing had nothing to do with either.

And I could quite easily ask why an earth that survey was publicised. For what reason exactly? What does it prove? Certainl people's opinion?
Is that not racist in itself?
See we can all find articles from somewhere

I'll add that the Telegraph article you linked to can't be compared to the article I mentioned.

One is about a survey, lacking details on what exactly and who were asked, saying that young white men (and other young people in general when you look at the charts they used) are seen in a poor light (by who? We don't exactly know as that isn't mentioned).

The other is a story of drunk teenagers. Who had their offense somehow related to their race and religion.

No we don't however is that relevant as to who it was. Fact is title of the article is young white men are most derided.
Now swing that and if it were to say young back men are most derided i guarantee you there would be more of an outcry. Anyways you are deflecting from the actual thread itself

Have you read the article you linked to?

The article itself doesn't say anything negative about young white man. It says they're seen in a negative light in a group of surveys. Now, if an article did come out about black men being seen negatively with the same level of reporting on this, there would be an outcry but level headed people will look at how the information was presented.

Now, what's the point of pointing out the race and religion of drunk teenagers when what were up to had nothing to do with either?

Since you brought it up, at least finish it. Answer the question.

Also, second on that list is young Caribbean men. But old white folks are all right.

Are you going to post a link to this article

You can't be bothered to register to read the Times article but expect me to jump through hoops to link a website to you? And if you're not sure what hoops I'm talking about, take a look at my name and take a decking guess.

I am not the one trying to prove a point. Don't try and prove a point then expect me to register with the times just to read an arricle I probably wouldn't agree with anyway. You are trying to prove a pount about some news article you can't seem to find or don't want to post

I can't post it due to where I am located and having read the article in the paper. Google is blocked here. Yahoo is hit and miss when it comes to working. And Bing, well, might as be an English Baidu for what use its worth.

So in London, all the crimes are by black people. OK. Got it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree with a lot of your points but to deny there's a massive gun and knife problem in certain parts of London is plainly denying facts. These areas are more populated with "people of colour" and they are unfortunately an outcome of their area, upbringing and a failing system. It's not their colour though, it's their environment but that doesn't change facts about demographics

I'm not. I was intentionally acting like Manc Python.

Proof of what exactly? The whole media are racist in your own warped mind?

posted on 15/12/18

Having managed to get onto the sun website, I searched key words and names and also got nothing. It was over 10 years ago, so they may have not kept it in their archives.

So I'll use a different example. Anyone remember that a 5 year old "Christian" girl was fostered by Muslims in Tower Hamlet(https://www.theguardian.com/society/2017/aug/29/london-tower-hamlets-council-questioned-after-placing-christian-girl-with-muslim-foster-carers)? Why was there such an uproar about that? Why was misinformation readily believed? Why did the mail get images from gettyimage and alter them? Why did the times keep reporting it as their victory when the girl was placed with her grandma (who turned out to be Muslim and unable to speak English) when that was the intended action of the council after she had been vetted?

https://www.theguardian.com/media/2018/apr/24/complaint-upheld-over-times-story-about-london-girl-fostered-with-muslim-family and https://www.theguardian.com/society/2017/nov/01/inquiry-rejects-press-claims-about-christian-girl-fostered-by-muslims https://www.theguardian.com/society/2017/sep/01/muslim-fostering-row-media-times-mail-skewed-portrayal Other reports of what went on. Read it and see why people here are saying they fuel racism.

You haven't found the article

Now you are posting on an incident to provide evidence that 'The Media' are racist or fuel racism. Oh you are comedy gold.
Like i said we can all go back and find incidents reported negatively about all races

Secony the desperation is so clear. Providing one story completed unrelated to Raheem Sterling just to try and back your claims up haha

Love it

You asked for an article of where my story came from, I could not find it after searching for key words on the sun website, wasting time using VPN to do so.

I posted another example where I could find a articles to link to. You have failed to read them.

You failed to read the Times article with the lame excuse of registering. And you link to an article in the Telegraph that doesn't prove a point you were trying to make.

Yet, you're unable to answer my question.

You're thick as bricks.
