I was looking for the Guardian's and Independent's report on it.

[dannyk13]

What about La Monde and Das Speigel?

Why those two?

Why not the Telegraph, Express and Times?

Poor lady, I hope progress will be made in this case after this new appeal.

[sp1814]

Are you trying to make a point about the reporting policies of different newspapers?

If so, what point is it?

What is it about the papers that have and have not carried the story that you would like to say, especially as there is no correlation between the types of paper that have carried it, and those that have not.

I don't know about you but I am English.

[dannyk13]

Just thought that you wanted it widely reported.

Because just like on here, It would have been interesting to see the Left condemning such racist brutality.

But it seems that just like some on here, they are more selective on who they condemn.

anyone would condemn this on AB or outside..

Is this not a case of pot & kettle?

Read what I put:
"More Widely Reported By The National Press" not the International press.

You would think so emmie, but unfortunately judging by some replies, there are some on here who seem reluctant to do so for some strange reason.

I see the usual "attack the messenger" not the message in an attempt to detract from an unpalatable truth.

No change from the left there then.

[Mamyalynne]

Regarding the wider point of your OP, I have no idea how certain outlets choose their News - maybe they were waiting for CCTV etc which so far hasn't materialised (hope it does).

There must be a way to ask them directly.

I hear there's a petition been set up on Nikki's behalf too.

The Mirror has reported it.

It’s a left leaning newspaper.

The Telegraph and the Expresd [i]haven’t[i] reported it. They lean to the right.

Could it be true that the reporting of this story is not dependent on the political and social stance of the journal concerned?

[sp1814]

You question is about reporting. You were not asking anyone to condemn the attackers. In fact, as we don’t have any evidence that there was an attack, who could we condemn?

Media Editors do seem to make some strange choices at times, don't they?

It is to be hoped that the people responsible are found quickly and dealt with accordingly.

danny can't you just answer the question without verbally attacking aog ???

[douglas9401]

Just a though but, maybe the bravest and the best of reporting talent has been sent to the four corners of our land to report on the forthcoming snowmageddon and the tribulations of citizens as they try to get to bingo or look aghast at the mounting inch of the white stuff that can cripple our great nation.

Or that everyday tale of rich bloke gets together with fruity rich gal.
