1/6 Let me tell you of the guy for whom Ed Sheeran ditched his longtime pal Macklemore.
Robert Kraft, billionaire owner of the New England Patriots and of their stadium (where Sheeran/Macklemore were to play), was arrested in Feb. 2019 over visits to a Florida massage parlour.
Jason Arday was hounded by the British media to death.
188 articles in 9 days.
249 articles in 22 days.
Over plagiarism controversy.
Nathan Cofnas—a sacked Cambridge race-theorist—started the allegations.
As someone who has experienced a smear campaign, I can tell you with full certainty that it can take you into total darkness.
They forget they are dealing with a human being. They forget it is someone's entire life they are tearing apart.
This is what sinister journalism does.
Shame on the British media.
A teenage boy who has been described as 'truly one of a kind' has died following a two-vehicle crash in Coalisland on Thursday.

Israel dropped a bomb on Mona’s home in Mansouri, South Lebanon, today.
Mona is not a fighter.
She is an environmental activist who dedicated her life to protecting endangered sea turtles.
Because of Israel, Mona is now fighting for her life in a hospital bed.
This is beyond horrifying.
New data shows Israel has killed over 680,000 Palestinians in Gaza.
Among them:
• 380,000 infants under 5
• 99,000 children over 5
That’s 479,000 children murdered by Israel.
Israel isn’t “defending itself.”
It is wiping out Palestinian life.
I lived and traveled in Iran for months. In Tehran I lived with the family of a retired bank worker who saw me looking for housing. I roomed with his son for months, ate all my meals with them, and they never accepted any money. Once I was sick and throwing up and they all came into the bathroom and the dad stroked my head while I barfed and told me “Aybi nadare” (no shame, it’s ok). I traveled around most of the country by plane, train, bus, shared taxi, etc. Eventually I stopped booking hotels because I’d always meet people on the train, bus etc who’d insist I stay with them. The family of Iran/Iraq war vets from Yazd who took me to Taft for bbq in the mountains. The taxi driver from Rasht who made a bed for me on the floor of his tiny apartment because all the hotels were full. The only time a police officer talked to me was once to make sure I was ok. I never felt in any danger day or night. The land of Iran is as incredibly diverse as its people. There are mountainous rain forests and desert salt flats. I met among the most liberal and most conservative people there, and everything in between. Everyone was so kind it makes me cry with shame.
A group of Israeli settlers have cut down dozens of olive trees in the Palestinian village of Minya, near Bethlehem – the latest in a series of near-daily settler attacks in the occupied West Bank, reports the Wafa news agency.

Keir Starmer sent a UK spy plane over Gaza for Israel every day from 3 July to 25 July
But there hasn't been one for 3 days now
Could it be because a BBC journalist finally asked David Lammy about the planes last week?
This was the first time in 20 months that a UK minister has been questioned by media about them
Lammy, caught off-guard, had to lie. Now they've stopped
Once again: establishment journalists are complicit in the genocide. By refusing to cover British participation in the annihilation of Gaza they have ensured it has continued for nearly two years
@Keir_Starmer How do you live with yourself @Keir_Starmer , sleep or look at your wife+children knowing you have actively participated in the ongoing genocide in Gaza and did everything possible to prevent a ceasefire. You are flying spy planes over Gaza! I hope your trial will be televised.
The Today programme on @bbcradio4 A discussion around Russia and Ukraine. You might be surprised to learn that a positive from the war is that European countries are now taking defense seriously so will be spending a lot more money on "defense". Analysis on the BBC. Warmongering.
Wondering why @EvanHD is questioning a doctor in Gaza about some random letter from a listener querying why people in Gaza aren't thin enough!? You could hear the bafflement and disbelief in her voice after she had described in detail how horrific the lack of food is. #bbcbias
Yesterday, he denied that RAF surveillance flights share information with Israel.
This is false. He is lying.
Lammy is panicking because he knows prison awaits.
All these kids in the photo were killed by Israel!
Israel killed them a few days ago, along with their mom and dad, Suhaib Al-Qarnawi, in a strike on their tent.
The only "inaccuracy" in the confected row about the BBC's Gaza film is the continuing lie that the young narrator is "the son of an official in the militant group Hamas".
No, he's the son of a scientist who directed agricultural policy in Gaza's government, which is run by Hamas. There's zero evidence that Ayman Alyazouri was ever a member of the militant wing of Hamas. He doesn't even appear to have been a member of its political wing.
So why does the BBC keep repeating this completely false claim?
Lisa Nandy smiling bashfully in a photo op with the ambassador of a country gleefully carrying out a genocide is so genuinely horrifying & yet so Labour 2025 .
Defence secretary @john_healey_MP on @BBCRadio4 gaslighting the public by saying the Prime Minister is working with the US and other countries around what is happening in Gaza. The US is funding the Gaza genocide and providing the weapons! No real push back from the interviewer.
