First of all, i would like to say my thoughts go out to the family and friends of Darlene Horton, the woman who lost her life and those who were injured in the horrific knife attack in Russell Square on Wednesday night.
BBC News reports:
A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a woman was killed and five injured in a knife attack in Russell Square, central London.
A 19-year-old man was arrested at 22:39 after a Taser was discharged by an officer. The Met said mental health was a “significant factor” in events.
Metropolitan Police Service say Mental Health played a significant part in this incident. Nowhere do they say that it was terror related, yet the editors at The Sun never fail to amaze us with the headline – “RUSSELL SQUARE BLOODBATH Woman in her 60s knifed to death and five injured in possible terror attack in central London as man, 19, is tasered”
The story should read – Man murders one and wounds others in Russell Square Knife attack.
I am all for free press when reported correctly, but after the vote for Brexit, the country needs to heal and come together, The Sun continue to spread hate and divisive headlines which injects more panic and fear into our society.
The Liberal Democrats need to tackle this and make a stand against this right wing media coverage, which some people I know are starting to believe. I see them quoting stuff from the sun as though it is fact and it is deeply worrying.
This creates further hate and only exacerbates hate crime in the long run. When can the Sun be held accountable for these outrageous headlines they keep printing?
