The BBC is failing to properly inform viewers about the realities of the climate emergency, choosing instead to follow the lead of rightwing newspapers owned by billionaires, Zack Polanski has said.
However, I suspect that while the media will cover climate issues for clicks (which they have to do to survive), they’ll ultimately continue furthering their own interests as a class by publishing content that delays action.
Most media is owned and staffed by people who will have to give things up if we’re actually going to tackle climate change.
So fuck 'em, unfortunately. Like this summer shows; we don’t have time to wait for them to get on board, and we can’t count on them to help.
Definitely vote green 👍
