I’ve listened & I feel sick.
It tells human stories behind dangerous extremists who hunt people at Dover.
The producers make every mistake whilst the racists pull every trick to seem reasonable. Money couldn’t buy publicity like this.
No one involved is qualified to do better https://twitter.com/gracedent/status/1316280388625592321

One extremist says he grew up in care and was abused. The producer asks if he thinks that’s why he holds these views. Amateur hour.
There’s no reporting on the facts. You won’t hear from experts. Just broadcasting dangerous people to millions.

Naturally I didn’t expect more from a show fronted by @gracedent who isn’t equipped to write about vulnerable children or adults. https://twitter.com/sarah_woolley/status/1098126699944968192
There is a library’s worth of material out there to help BBC producers and freelancers understand how to cover extremism. Lesson one: they don’t shake your hand and say, “Good morning I’m a fascist.” Sky History learned that one.
This isn’t a blip. @BBCSounds also put out ‘Scarlett Moffatt Wants To Believe’: a show discussing conspiracies like “the Illuminati” with people woefully unqualified to know how dangerous this crap is.
Donate to @seawatch_intl and @Right_to_Remain if you can.
Honestly, what did I expect from Grace Dent though. Amateur hour. https://twitter.com/sarah_woolley/status/1098133699743363072
