A few quotes from the report published today:
"When assessed as a whole, the evidence of discriminatory,
sensational or unbalanced reporting in relation to ethnic minorities,
immigrants and/or asylum seekers, is concerning."
"[The conclusion that] Muslims, migrants, asylum seekers and
gypsies/travellers ... targets of press hostility and/or xenophobia in the
press, was supported by the evidence seen by the Inquiry."
"...some newspapers expressed a consistently clear view
on the harm caused by migrants and/or asylum seekers (often conflating the two)
and ensured that any coverage of the issue fit within that narrative."
"It is important to reiterate that the evidence was not
all bad: there were many examples of titles with responsible and positive
reporting on these issues, and even within the section of the press identified
for criticism, there was evidence showing a complicated picture."
