Abstract

The Guardian and BBC are both reporting figures that ‘disprove’ the ‘migrant crime myth’. The allegation is that immigrants have been portrayed as more criminal than they really are. Papers like the Mail have even been threatened with legal action by community groups who feel that they have been misrepresented by sections of the British media.
