The centrist moral arbiters who destroy any opportunity for real change. The supposed voice of the soft left who are riddled with hypocrisy. The once proud newspaper now on its knees in the eyes of those who desire something different.
With all the controversy relating to the twitter… outburst by Wiley attacking Jewish people and then the consequent piece by Owen Jones explaining why he took part in the 48 hour boycott and then low and behold the ultimate irony. They post an image of another black artist who is not mentioned once in the piece in place of the one that is. Wiley becomes Kano in a heartbeat.
Yes of course it was a mistake. There is absolutely no evidence that it was anything else. However, if one is discussing racism and twitter boycotts one really should pull all the plugs out not to look incompetent. It is bad enough with the likes of Jonathan Freedland on the payroll without then looking like a pig in a sty at a wedding reception.
The Guardian is of course defended by liberal centrists as it is pretty much all they have but it is looking more and more like an apology for journalism than a serious model to precipitate social change.
I feel sorry for you Owen having to rely upon them for a pay check.
