Surely that graph is meaningless as you would expect more incidents in London, owing to population, than anywhere else

And a lot more brown folk to shout at.

Local media is biased against Sunderland.........AGAIN. Whether its Look North Korea or Tyne tees, they just love running defamatory stories about Sunderland. Quite pathetic really

It really isn't. Jeff Brown, presenter of Look North is constantly banging the drum for Sunderland. Not only on the show but by turning up and supporting nearly every cultural event going as well as presenting and even writing a play about a Sunderland player.
Not the behaviour of someone who is biased against us.
Loads of local media people live in and love Sunderland, I've met many of them and following them on social media backs this up. It would be bizarre to then get into some conspiracy at work to slag off the place they love. I'm still at a loss why local media would choose to alienate a large proportion of their population.

He'll shout at someone and aim a thinly veiled threat then run off like the coward he is.

Haway man the usual suspects of let's put Sunderland down don't want facts. A tiny number of arseholes you find in every city in the UK mean Sunderland is a massive hotspot of racial tensions. Get with the program.

How do you explain a program like the one about to be broadcast tonight then? Based on social media posts - talk about barrel scraping. The number of messages that must be posted every day across the country on Twitter/Facebook and the like must number in the thousands.

You want them to do a documentary about the SMB?

I've just been watching the HoP on 'the Sun' live stream and it's full of them in the live comments at the side

while most areas saw an initial rise in race hate crimes following the referendum they did subsequently drop...... however in sunderland they continued to rise. Also the polling figures of extreme right wing candidates in various elections cannot be overlooked.........if it walks like a duck.......
It's a one off programme on Inside Out which is basically a localised Watchdog show trying to make drama out of not very much. It's on every week and focuses on towns and cities across the North East and Cumbria. It's been going for years, every now and then Sunderland is going to be shown in a bad light because unfortunately, we do have our fair share of knackers who like to make a load of noise.
It's not biased against Sunderland, just a fairly low budget, low rent 'current affairs' show and we happen to be the focus this week.
Edit: Next week is about rough sleepers in Newcastle
