Re: Where be monsters?
What an interesting article. The themes regarding demonisation and 'evil' are particularly true. Over the past few weeks, the furore over Carr has been ridiculous. She's a moron - plain and simple... and she probably deserved a slightly stiffer sentence, but the writer is correct to suggest that the media has wanted to turn her in Myra Hindley. What makes me laugh is the fact that the talking heads on the news were casually dropping the 'H word' into the chatter... only to later report on the 'development' that the public consider her on a par with Hindley. A messy cause and effect.
