Hmm over 100 ? That's 3 examples. You'd crucify anyone else for a similar crime of ocerexaggeration. Source

Sam Bright. Trustworthy? Also involved with Byline Times, Bullingdon Club Britain and the DeSmog. I know nowt about these 3 organisations, ditto with Substack. Maybe on of my fellow posters can give me a truthful, unbiased view on the veracity of these 4 organisations.

Byline Times is a monthly newspaper which claims to search out the truth the more official media suppresses. De Smog claims to investigate the real impact of climate change and Bullingdon Club Britain is a book by Sam Bright about how the rich elite have infiltrated various UK institutions to inflate their own power and wealth.

All sound intelligent and reputable, as does Sam Bright. That’s just first impressions and you can never be too careful, but I’d say they seem like sources worth taking notice of.

Indeed RA, but then I guess that depends upon whether one holds the view that a paper which regularly publishes inaccurate, misleading views is being a touch hypocritical when attacking the BBC or if your more concerned with nit picking on details and ignoring the basic premise?

Of course if said person has a track record of being pedantic and ignoring the main issue, then its quite easy to reach a conclusion.

This seems to be a bit of a non sequitur. I wasn’t commenting on either the Telegraph or GP’s defence of it. I was just attempting to provide clarification over the four publications MA raised awareness of yesterday.

They are reasonably trustworthy, though one does have to as always exercise due diligence. But the claims re Torygraph are a matter of record, either those of the regulator or the Torygraph and reflect what Private Eye has often reported.
