The Wicked Press Or The Wicked Politicians

The Government hack into phones, poke their noses into our personal affairs and misuse the information they obtain.
Governments break up families in secret and hold increasing numbers of trials in secret, too.
Governments sell information about us to outsiders.
They record our emails, spy on our rubbish bins and use airport x-ray machines to look at our naked bodies.
They know what we earn, where we live and monitor our medical records.
Newspapers don’t bomb Belgrade or Baghdad or Tripoli, or invade Afghanistan and then forget why they did it.
Newspapers don’t waterboard people, or bundle them off to clandestine prisons.
Newspapers don’t release hundreds of convicted terrorists on to the streets nor thousands of convicted ordinary criminals either.
Newspapers don’t open our borders to hundreds of thousands of unchecked migrants.
And the Government have ordered a Judicial Inquiry into the wicked press.
Shouldn’t it be the other way round?
