UK Riots 2011 article

This article represents the British Youth in a negative way, this is because the article only refers to the London riots back in 2011, which only a small number of the british youth took part in. the writer uses phrases such as 'not well-educated rioters' which is very biased as not all the rioters and youth are uneducated. Also the writer has is a retired man, therefore doesn't know how the British youth are now, therefore just implies that if one youth acts up then they are all going to act up in the same way. he then goes on to saying 'the most unpleasant and violent in the world' even though he was no evidence or statistics to back is opinions up. In my opinion, the media only focuses on the things that will make a headline, these are usually the negative headline as they know they will sell. therefore if a youth does something good then it won't get written about because the British youth stereotype is 'knife-weildering children' just like what the article states.
