Many people have complained to @AdamWagner1 @EachOtherUk (formerly Rights Info) about whether the charity is fulfilling its purpose of human rights education (letter from some here - still no response), particularly bias in their coverage of gender & sex
The answer you tend to get is "RightsInfo is a small news organisation with limited resources, and is not able to cover all stories, with the editorial team taking decisions on a day-to-day basis."
Things that don't get coverage -- serious legal analysis of the conflict of rights that arise from proposed reforms to the gender recognition act (despite several offers)
They have never reported on the bomb threats, masked protesters, physical attacks and threats to peoples livelihoods for attending meetings or expressing gender critical views on social media .... this seems like a human rights issue 🙄
Harry Miller's case and my case both got have not had a word written on them (they did find time to write about the ethical vegan belief case)
It can't have passed them by..... particularly after JK Rowling made it an international news story?

Sarah Wishart CEO of Each Other found time to retweet various tweets calling me and JK Rowling a bigot.

But informed analysis of the legal issues on the website.... nope.
So what kind of stories are big enough?

When Linda Bellos was accused of “threatening or abusive words or behaviour likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress” Rights Info ran two whole long stories

In fact the case was taken over and dropped by the CPS . There was no harassment or abuse.

Another story that got extensive coverage was Caroline Farrow, investigated by Surrey police for tweets complained about by Mermaids CEO Susie Green (Rights Info's CEO at the time Alex Bryce is a Trustee of Mermaids) eachother.org.uk/catholic-journ… No charges were brought here at all
Tweet something to which someone takes offence & you can be recorded as committing a "non crime hate incident"

Or if reported to yr employer u could lose your job.

A human rights charity should be reporting on this chilling erosion of free of speech
