Media Dishonesty: Interview Cut Short To Hide Truth About Racism/BLM in UK…
Comment:
The above interview followed riots in London at end of June. It took a very different turn to what the interviewer, Adam Boulton, expected. Adam doesn’t hide his views on anything – he was openly anti-Brexit, for example, and it showed throughout his reports and interviews post-referendum result. Now, he’s, once again, on message, not keen to challenge the popular media line about racism in the UK. Mr Hurley’s factual account of what is going on is clearly not welcome at Sky News. Is anyone surprised at the way this interview was unceremoniously ended?
The implications are very serious for a media which cannot be trusted. If we suspect that we are not dealing with truthful reporters and interviewers, respect for journalism is lost. Poll after poll shows that the public do not trust news outlets – while, at the same time, they seem to (in fact) believe what they are being fed by news outlets, print and broadcasting. What is going on here? What is the truth about fake news?
Very importantly, too, consider the fact that the points made by Kevin Hurley apply across society. He highlights the normalcy of single-parent families; this is a problem which is not exclusive to “black communities” and which is having a detrimental effect on both the children raised in these families (generally speaking – obviously, there are exceptions) and in wider society. Again, is anyone surprised at the way this interview was unceremoniously ended? Why do those with media influence want to cover-up the truth about the dire (and often dangerous) state of everyday life in the UK?

That’s typical Adam Boulton. He just can’t resist putting his tuppence worth in. He must think everybody wants to know his opinion. Or is it worse than that, does he think he’s “correcting” his guests, like that ex-Met Police Chief, to make sure viewers are not “misled”?
Whatever it is, we are not getting any alternative views to the media narrative. The officer did extremely well, considering. Anyone hearing the points he makes, will think carefully – unless they’re really stupid. Then it’s a case of “stupid is, as stupid does”.
Lily,
You are right about Adam Boulton’s anti-Brexit interviews – used to drive me crazy.
I haven’t seen Sky News for a good while now, but yes, that is how I remember Adam Boulton, LOL!
The police chief was speaking the truth about society and about Black Lives Matter. He should have known better than to accept the invite onto the show!
What I mean to add there is that someone ought to ask those protesters why they don’t look for another place to live where there is no racism against black people. If Britain is so bad a place to live, why not move, instead of rioting and making life unpleasant for everyone, yourselves included. That’s what I would do if I was living in a country that I thought hated me for my race and wanted to ruin my life. I wouldn’t protest, I would just buy a ticket to a more civilized country.
Nicky,
You’ve said what an awful lot of people think but are too scared to say in case they’re accused of being racist. It stands to reason that if somebody really believes they’re living in a country where they are hated or discriminated on account of their skin colour, they’d go someplace else. That’s why I think a lot of this protesting is about posturing. I bet a pound to a penny that if these BLM people were asked to name the country they’d prefer to live in and their fare would be paid, they’d stay put here. In the meantime, the rest of us are walking on eggshells not to offend them.
I haven’t met a lot of black people on a social basis but the few I’ve met are not screaming racism. They’re friendly people who seem well balanced and normal. I think these campaigner types are not typical of most black people – at least I sincerely hope not.
As for Adam Boulton and Sky News – the least said, soonest mended!
Josephine (and Nicky),
BLM is about something far more sinister than posturing, although posturing certainly comes in handy (they call it “virtue-signaling” over here) when you want to present a certain veneer. If you look at the main BLM website, it is pure Marxism, cultural and otherwise, dedicated to the overthrow of what’s left of Western Civilization.
In short, BLM is a hate group – though you’ll never see them described as such (i.e. accurately) by the teleprompter readers in the media. That’s because those teleprompter readers are no longer journalists, they are leftist activists, whose paychecks depend on mouthing the party line without deviation.
Deviate? You’re out on the street!
I’m hoping that Pres. Trump will soon declare BLM, as he already has with Antifa, a domestic terrorist group, though he would certainly catch all manner of hell from BLM’s bedfellows in the media, academia, and of course, the USCCB.
Well as you say, that interview was indeed cut short. Just as the policeman was talking absolute sense with a refreshing honesty. Am I surprised it was curtailed? Sadly not a bit.
I’ve not watched this particular “Fireside Chat” but I searched for it because on racism Dennis Prager is very good, has facts and figures on the subject to hand, as well as plenty of common sense. I’m looking forward to watching this one myself later…
I’ve now watched this Fireside Chat – excellent. Dennis really does talk a lot of sense… (although there are things he says in some videos with which we would not agree as Catholic – or many non-Catholics, as well, actually… but we’ll leave that for now…)
And also for now – an excellent fireside chat. He hits a lot of nails on heads…
Editor,
You watch so many of those fireside chats, I’m beginning to wonder if there is no heat in your flat….
Editor,
Having now watched the video, I agree wholeheartedly: excellent, and a masterpiece of common sense, basic values…and well-controlled indignation at leftist lies and degeneracy.
I think the reason why many people are now turning to social media is because they can air their views with more freedom than any news channel on TV will ever air them, although even that outlet is now slowly being shut down to truth. The simple fact is the News media is largely owned by an elite of wealthy people who are no friends of God, country or morals. I never watch the TV news.
News media corporations such as the BBC and SKY lead the charge against the so call war on social injustice, in reality they are the brain-washing tools for attacking the family nucleus. The above clip with Adam Boulton shows that freedom of speech no longer exists in this country, unless as Athanasius says, we go to social media blog sites such as CTS. BLM is a typical tool to fit their agenda and the ex-Met chief obviously didn’t know we no longer live in a free society and have freedom of speech.
We see this in all areas of life and not just in media interviews. Soon we will have the “Health Passport” see the following link

We all have to be on alert to media dishonesty and the cutting short of interviews as with the above example, is a sad sign of their dishonesty in action. World events are happening at an even increasing rate can be shared on platforms like CTS and we can never be complacent to any Adam Boulton or Politician!
Came across a little good news this evening: Nick Buckley, founder of the Mancunian Way (whatever that is), was fired by his Board for telling the truth about BLM. Well well well, a threatened lawsuit has resulted in him being reinstated, and for good measure, the cowardly Board members who fired him have all resigned.
Nice deal, Nick!
Perhaps the lockdown protestors should look into hiring this Geoffey Davies, who represented Mr. Buckly pro bono…

RCA Victor,
Brilliant! Just shows, it can be well worth challenging this kind of bullying.
Here’s the President of the Portland, Oregon chapter of the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) taking the “white progressives” of BLM and Antifa to task for hijacking legitimate civil rights issues!

Hah – I bet George Soros didn’t expect that one!
