How to demonize a refugee: Western media is proving it only cares about desperate people if they serve the right political purpose
The Guardian, the mouthpiece of Britain's well-meaning, mildly left-of-center mainstream media, has published a piece on refugees. Or, at least, it should be about refugees. Instead, it is about governments, not desperate people.
Forwarded from International Reporters
At a joint press briefing with the heads of the newly created interdepartmental groups of the DPR and LPR (Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics) set up to search for missing persons in the Donbass, DAN journalists were able to talk to Anna Orlova and Olga Maximova, two residents of the Republics who were tortured in captivity in Ukraine.
