Duggan Case

[Niall]

Ooh, here's another one, why are as a society do we (and the press) focus on what is essentially petty crime, and tend to ignore far more significant crime such as the massive tax evasion committed by high profile companies like Google and our beloved Phillip Green (of Arcadia group).

Because people now days are lazy and believe far too much of what the media say which 9 times out of 10, is never factual. The media will ALWAYS blow things out of proportion or bend the truth to make things seem different. This is proved by the amount of people now days who spend their time slating the government for how they run this country. Where do they get these stats from to base their opinions? News papers and the news which is all just utter bollocks imo.
I always take everything in the news with a pinch of salt because I've seen via my company first hand how they can twist things to make companies and people out to be bad or in the wrong just because they want to spark an argument or keep people interested news. Don't forget, bad news is good news to the media and how often do you hear stories of good news? You don't really because they always want to keep you interested and going back to them for more bad stories just to argue with people over.
