  • I’m American

    Here we go.

    so I don’t understand why the UK has a ‘Ministry of Truth’

    Ofcom aren’t a ministry of truth, they’re not affiliated with the government in any way. They are an independent regulatory body. Surely as an American you’re familiar with your own FCC, yes? They serve the same function.

    As for the content of the article itself, I agree that Ofcom should investigate. I don’t see the problem having clear lines between politicians and news anchors. I actually don’t think a politician should have any additional job or career that could cause a conflict of interest.

    Edit: After perusing your comment history you’re clearly a homophobic, transphobic climate change denier who just loves posting in communities you disagree with to engage in bad faith arguments. Thus I want nothing more to do with you and have blocked you.

    While the infographic certainly gets its point across I don’t understand why the author felt the need to use a slur in the name calling section. Feels very unnecessary when literally any insult would have worked like arsehole or even something simple like idiot or moron.

    Edit: I’ve struck-through my ableist language as opposed to outright deleting it as to not try to deny any wrongdoing.
