Somebody else about to go off piste but bear with as I explain the current justification of Raheems allegations against our institutionalised written press.
We all know what he said and what he posted in support which showed how the press report differently on black and white footballers - but he was also alluding to the wider society.
I have heard today how the press seems to have fallen out of love with Meghan ( Markle as was ) and there are claims that in order to make a royal story the press are pitching princess against princess - Meghan vs Kate - with what may or may not be truths about rifts in the Royal household. Now, if you will recall Harry stepped in to rebuff the press when there were stories highlighting his future wife's ethnicity - stamped it down and said he wasn't having racial undertones being raised in his relationship. It seems that, in order to make a story, the press are making one princess the "goody" and one the "baddie" - the baddie being the one who has "joined the firm" and is creating waves. Guess which one is the baddie ? Could it be that the institutional almost unknowing bias have been used in reporting these "stories"? Raheem has more than a point.
That all sounds so wonderfully Disney.
