why do people misquote stuff???

[Juelz]

like the papers ETC

EG they say jade said "go back to the slums"

when actualy she said she SHOULD go and visit the slums, and see what its like, because then maybe she would realised people are not all as well off ETC, thats what she meant

also the **** off home thing has been blown out of proportion too.

its a shame, because people who dont watch it, but JUST read the paper, are going to believe what it says, and think its much worse........which is why all this fuss has been made in the first place........

why do u feel the need to defend jade so much? the majority of the country cannot be wrong!

[Slartibartfast]

Sensationalist journalism mate, unfortunately there's nothing new about it. Read the Guardian instead, it's slightly better. Plus it's nice and "lefty" as well.

It goes Worldwide as well

that was harsh, he can support who he likes...

[rex3]

he can try and defend who he likes, but at the end of the day if there werent any racism there, then there would be none of this

[Slartibartfast]

Like Dermot said on BBLB last night, he heard some guy on the radio complaining that they couldn't believe the BBC were doing this!!!

It's the whole "Mary Whitehouse" Phenomenon, she constantly campaigned against videos and things on TV without ever actually watching any of them. We can thank Mary Whitehouse for the fascist Video Recordings Act 1984 and the creation of the BBFC :bored: :rolleyes:

But all they care about is having a "good" story.. and the more shocking the story the better it is for them...

I've always had a healthy disrespect for parts of the media, don't know what's so funny about it now.

yeah you would point out, at one point in your life, how that muslims get treated unfairly around the world and with media and politics, I was reading the metro newspaper, one person said that muslims are getting too much attention to in the media, and its unfair.

You would complain about the freedom of speech, but not when someone disses your relations.

yeah you, point out, like you did with jade, that muslims get treated unfairly around the world with media and politics, its funny you put on the diplomatic face, when a debate comes up

I have no idea what you're talking about? :puzzled:

I've never made a post on this forum about muslims, ever. Maybe you got me mixed up with someone else?

EDIT: I see you have amended your first post, which I'll assume means you did have me mixed up with someone else. Good job I quoted your original post otherwise I'd look pretty silly, now the person who looks silly is..... :wink:

All the mis-quotings of Jade will cause an awful lot of hype and attention, but it will turn out that Jade will not be found guilty of racism when the quotes are analysed in court.

The media wins.

If there is a consolation, Id say its that we get to debate a serious issue that needs debating.

[Donkeylegs]

call call.

It opens up a debate that ppl are scared of interveing in, becuase it s serious and not many peopl understand it or may care to.

Though jade HAS said some remarks, i actually think Danielle and Jo have been worse. (This specifically on the racism question)
