I have to agree with Bella Caledonia on Twitter last night ie Has anyone at STV read this ? Seems to be a blog post masquerading as 'commentary' is this the editorial view of STV or are they allowing correspondents to do this as they see fit ?

Next week Sean Batty on the Autumn statement.

Some good some bad in that article. I've read worse. I wish modern journalists would stop the deliberate misrepresentation that seems to be everywhere these days. Tariq Ali was in no way saying 'jews are to blame'. A shocking and offensive distortion. Just argue your case without being a tit.

If he's actually serious about Charlie Hebdo's cartoons being racist thats a poorly reached conclusion.

If not, as I hope, then what's the point? Does it only matter when "it could have been us?"
