🟣Media coverage tends to focus more on the victims rather than the perpetrators, with 75% more mentions of victim attributes, highlighting personal aspects such as age and profession, rather than the aggressor's actions. It is time to change the approach by adapting a gender perspective, promoting media coverage that educates and encourages real change. #THEPURPLECHECK 🆕https://lnkd.in/gFHFZMMQ

CEO & Editor-in-Chief, The Bureau of Investigative Journalism ~ & Chair of the Board at Leeds Playhouse
Reinforcing democracy and transparency are core principles at The Bureau of Investigative Journalism One of the reporting strands we launched last year focuses firmly on mis-information ~ exposing hostile agents pushing dangerous narratives in the run up to a UK general election. Led by our formidable Big Tech Editor Jasper Jackson [and now that a date of 4 July has been set] you should definitely take a read of our new years blog from The Bureau’s Editor Franz Wild about the importance of this work. Civic engagement is equally important to us, so we also launched a Social series on Insta & Tik Tok. And, like any good citizen, we care about working alongside communities, and we set up a WhatsApp Influence Ops tip line to involve them in our work. The Bureau is an independent newsroom with amazing talent and high ambitions. We are also a non-profit organisation and your support ~ by becoming a Bureau Insider ~ will help us keep going with this kind of deep, public interest journalism. https://lnkd.in/eJd2TQSC https://lnkd.in/erDV_R56 #transparency #accountability #misinformation #democracy #elections #community #publicinterestjournalism

There are a few stereotypes about Gen Z out there: they’re TikTok obsessed, chronically online, and uninterested in politics. There’s some legs to the last one – they’re the generation least likely to list politics/social issues as an interest. 🤳 Of course, interest differs by country. Turkish Gen Z are the most interested in politics, wanting a bigger say in politics after citing dissatisfaction with current economic conditions and job prospects. Gen Z as a whole may be less interested in politics, but those who care are noticeably vocal. As the generation ages into the workplace, become parents, and have more skin in the game, we may see their interest and passion for politics go up. Get weekly insights with our newsletter.

💡A Must Read Story We (Female Journalist) need to bring some of these issues we face in private to the lamplight. Silence often strengthens the perpetrators but speaking out not only brings solutions to problems but equally heals our mental health. #SpeakOutAndSilentThePerpetrator

The recent YouTube premiere of the BBC documentary “Burning Sun: Exposing the Secret K-pop Chat Groups” has stirred intense emotions in Korea. The documentary, which aired last Sunday, provides a chilling account of the Burning Sun scandal, featuring eyewitness testimonies and exclusive footage. As of Tuesday midday, it has garnered over 3.4 million views and 21,000 comments, predominantly expressing outrage. Viewers are particularly incensed by the light sentences given to the scandal’s main figures—Seungri received 18 months, Choi Jong-hoon two years, while a key police figure was acquitted. These sentences starkly contrast with the severe nature of the crimes, including sexual assault, illegal filming, and police collusion. Many believe the true tragedy is that such an impactful documentary was broadcast by the BBC rather than a Korean network. The scandal, initially uncovered in 2016 with Jung Joon-young’s indictment, resurfaced in the documentary, revealing disturbing new details. Evidence showed Seungri coercing women, highlighting ongoing systemic issues in the entertainment industry and society at large. SBS reporter Kang Kyung-yoon, featured in the documentary, noted, “I feel that what’s happening in this industry is like a microcosm of our society: money, power, women, sex.” The documentary also acknowledged late singer Goo Ha-ra’s role in identifying a key police collaborator. Despite the arrests, the documentary suggests that little has changed in Gangnam clubs, implying that similar abuses continue. A poignant moment featured a victim expressing a wish for her perpetrator to feel perpetual guilt—a hope that seems unmet as figures like Seungri resume public life. This powerful documentary has reignited a vital conversation about justice and gender issues in Korea, with many demanding systemic change and true accountability for those involved. #BurningSunScandal #Kpop #JusticeForVictims #SystemicChange #BBCDocumentary #Thesocialtalks

You won’t see us here on LinkedIn today, on Tuesday 2nd of July – or any other Tuesday in the near future. We, and many other users, are protesting against this platform’s #censorship and constraints to #freedomofexpression, around the violent occupation in Palestine and connected issues. 🆓🇵🇸🍉 Countless advocates for ending this genocide have been ousted, restricted and #shadowbanned, including our corporate account, for nothing more than telling the #truth. LinkedIn is targeting anyone who reports truthful facts about this inhumanity and asks for institutional accountability. The negative publicity LinkedIn attracts with this controversial policy largely outweighs benefits generated by leaving open space on its platform to Zionist propaganda. This stance does not make even business sense, as it tarnishes their corporate reputation as a ‘professional’ social platform. Perhaps if we all refused to pay for premium services on this platform they would start listening, A professional social media platform should not filter and select content based on political bias. Individual followers can decide with their own minds which content they want to see, based on their choice to follow certain accounts and reacting to content they wish to see more of. Who would store personal and sensitive data on a platform that actively promotes arbitrary #politicalcensorship and is politically aligned? This has to stop. Immediately. For the sake of the business future of this platform and the freedom of expression of its users. We request that these arbitrarily restrictive policies are abolished. We users have experienced the impact on our posting of such policies all from personal experience, for which we now have irrefutable #factualevidence. We are collectively willing to share such evidence with interested parties and the press. Every week tens of thousands of people around the world see these protest messages, react and comment, as proof this is a real issue for many LinkedIn users, even if this a challenging topic to talk about. A professional social media platform cannot promote censorship and forced political alignment, it goes against their professional ethos and reputation.
