Part 2 of our statistical analysis of the UK press focuses on how it amplifies the UK military/intelligence establishment.

Here are some of the findings.

See thread.

1/ Regimes favoured by the UK government, such as Saudi, Bahrain and Egypt, are routinely called “governments” by the UK press. Whereas those seen as enemies are more often called “regimes”. The figures are striking. bit.ly/2ICgoDF
2/ The crimes of the UK government’s enemies are covered much more by the UK press than those of allies. Around three times the number of UK press articles mention war crimes in Syria as war crimes in Yemen. bit.ly/2ICgoDF

THREAD. We analysed UK press coverage of various UK foreign, military and intelligence policies.

Here are some of our findings in Part One on how the UK press is misinforming the public and failing to report key issues.

bit.ly/39C1JUX
1/ UK press has failed to report properly on GCHQ’s covert online action programme - JTRIG - revealed by E.Snowden in 2014. An example of how inconvenient truths are buried by the ‘mainstream’ media bit.ly/39C1JUX
2/ Former OPCW director Jose Bustani has noted “irregular behaviour in the OPCW investigation” of alleged Syria chemical attack in Douma and “doubts and suspicions” on the claim. His comments are reported in only one press outlet – Mail on Sunday. bit.ly/39C1JUX

Thread of 17 UK foreign/security policies violating domestic or international law.

But are there others? Tweet us if you think so (must be in same foreign/security policy areas not other domestic issues, and must be ongoing not in the past).

bit.ly/376rCtG
1/UK operates its own drone war and supports that of US, which has killed 100s of civilians and is widely regarded as illegal, breaching fundamental human rights.

2/UK is defying the International Court of Justice and UN by refusing to end its occupation of the Chagos islands.
3/ UK is defying UN Committee on Decolonisation demands that it seek a negotiated settlement to resolve the dispute over the status of Falklands islands. bit.ly/376rCtG
