And who owns The Spectator? Our cuddly hedge fund GB news owning master.
The Spectator questioned our journalism and our public funding. It is entitled to do both.
But scrutiny works both ways.
Its account of who controls Bylines Network, how we operate and what our funding supports is wrong. So we're setting the record straight.

Journalism is nothing without facts, and the Spectator has got its facts wrong
Bylines Network is opening journalism to thousands of citizens. Readers deserve an accurate account of our work, independence and public funding

Spectator is Lying, More At 11

This is obviously just racism from the Spectator, and also a sign that even someone as hateful and xenophobic as Mahmood will never be racist enough for the Spectator and the other fascists.
Spectator cover image of Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood with a trojan horse of terrorists.
Trojan horse metaphor + image depends on a premise not just of risk but that it arises from knowing subterfuge + subversion by the government minister, to trick her MPs/fellow citizens into taking terrorists

A ten-year sentence for rape and sexual assaults against multiple victims, and the Spectator decides it's time to scold the victims.
Burn it all down.

No Spectator, there is not a political element to Russell Brand's downfall. It is not a social media frenzy. It is the law.
We don’t need another #MeToo moment
The first outbreak of ‘#MeToo,’ which began with the downfall of Harvey Weinstein, showed just how dangerous a social media frenzy can be
