The Death Of TV Drama...

Much like the lack of rights and representation in criminal justice, people bereaved by murder have no voice. And yet some members of the media industry continue to exploit the murder-bereaved and victims of crime in pursuit of entertainment. Surely the law needs to change in a way that enforces the human right to privacy, especially in a time of such vulnerability. Victims and their families need more options to express their voice and have more rights over their “story” and the narrative of their loved ones.
Anyone asking just how that could ever, in any conceivable reality, work in practice is on a hiding to nothing:


The SJWs have another hobbyhorse, and they'll ride it until the poor beast collapses in exhaustion...

    Try naming a Savile victim and see what happens...

    On a more serious note, whatever happened to the dramatic "Disclaimer" whereby all similarities to people living or dead is coincidental? What seems to be the driver here is that "Drama" seeks to represent "the truth" as if it were reporting the news.

    As opposed, say, to personal suffering being exploited for "power, glory and smug self-satisfaction in politics."

    If this is SJW led then I need to set up a party as for the first time I am in agreement.

    I suspect though that we will disagree significantly on the details on how this will take place.

    This of course from the paper and readership which relished all 10 hours of The People vs. O.J. Simpson, praised Dominic West as Fred West, Maxine Peake as Myra Hindley, Reece Shearsmith as Malcolm Webster in The Widower....

    "...whatever happened to the dramatic "Disclaimer" whereby all similarities to people living or dead is coincidental?"

    Maybe there's no time for it now they have to fit in the Snowflake Warning ("This programme contains distressing imagery...")?

    "I suspect though that we will disagree significantly on the details on how this will take place."

    Undoubtedly!

    "This of course from the paper and readership which relished all 10 hours of The People vs. O.J. Simpson..."

    Oh, indeed!
