News Broadcast 2
The headlines have now changed to 'UK riots' and although they are interviewing from the other point of view they are not talking directly to the youths themselves, she also keeps interrupting him whenever he says something she dislikes or disagrees with. Darcus talks about how his son and grandson knew that the riots were coming as there has been great unrest among youngsters due to the cuts being made in Britain, Darcus claims that the government should've listened to the warning signs and would've been able to prevent this. The reporter is quite biased and almost makes Darcus out to be a thug himself, suggesting he supports the violence and may even be a rioter himself. Her views target the Afro Caribbean community and Darcus reinforces this by telling us about how his grandson often gets stopped and searched simply because of his colour and age. The questions asked are mre like attacks on his beliefs and Darcus is hurt and feels disrespected by her comments.
