Lucy Dalglish is remarkably ignorant. However, ignorance, bias, laziness, and carelessness seem to be rampant amongst the members of the press these days.
I think you are far too kind to attribute her speech to ignorance, carelessness or laziness. I think she is giving us the leftist propaganda line, and in doing so, hoping it to make it the "truth" as the public sees it. Unfortunately, this has and continues to work well with many who are too ignorant, careless or lazy to think for themselves. Remember, the truth is "relative", and therefore can be manipulated as needed to bring about the "correct" conclusion. Very ugly stuff.
