Thanks for the comment. You can show me a link to a story about an allegedly false claim of harrassment made by a Muslim which has not yet had a verdict delivered in court. That story looks accurate – good for the Telegraph in that case. But you are taking a single example and drawing a conclusion as to both process and content, because that single example appears to match a particular view.

I’ll raise you a false claim about ‘refugees taking local people’s places in the housing queue’ made on a leaflet in the 2009 Norfolk ByElection, and completely demolished by Cath Elliot in another example of targeted blogging, here:

The account I’ve cross-posted shows that sufficient context is not always provided, and I’m asking the question how opinion and reporting can be integrated appropriately.

A similar question is relevant – for example – when campaigning organisations publish “research reports”.
