How the media LIED about the cost of living crisis ... and why Scotland isn't buying it

Editor Laura Webster sits down with Dr Catherine Happer and Dr Lluis de Nadal Alsina to discuss how the UK media have told the story of the cost of living crisis, and what that has meant for people in Scotland who are living it every day. They unpack years of research into press and broadcast coverage of the crisis: who gets to speak, which sources are treated as “expert”, and how journalists frame the causes and solutions.
