Daily Telegraph quality journalism
So .. I was in a coffee shop yesterday and foolishly picked up the Daily Telegraph. Skimming through the pages, a big bold heading caught my attention, "Lebanon vs Korea ... (and I forgot the rest)" it says. The story was about this Lebanese kid who got killed in a gang brawl between the Lebanese and Korean gang in Liverpool. Odd, that's the very first thing that came out to my mind whilst reading the article. Korean gang in Liverpool, is that right?
I continued reading the article and it goes on explaining that there has been tension between the Lebanese and Korean community there since a Lebanese kid was killed a few months (?) ago. It then goes on the murderer has been arrested blah blah blah. But most interesting is the person's name, which I couldn't remember now, but it was clearly a Vietnamese name. Now .. that make sense. Two more kids have been arrested and both have Vietnamese name, while the article keep saying that those are Korean gangs. The word Korea & Korean were mentioned multiple times in the article and so no it wasn't a misspelling.
There you go ... makes you wonder what kind of "journalist" work for the Daily Telegraph that couldn't even be bothered to check the fact.
