    Dear @nytimes, The UK is mourning, angry & defiant but we're not "reeling". Report the news don't crassly & insensitively define a nation.https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/871271064386625537 …

      The Times is a Goebbels-esque administration rag anymore. It has zero credibility. I read Teen Vogue for real, hard hitting journalism.

        Of course the UK is reeling, what country wouldn't be? There's the trope of the 'stiff upper lip' and then there's simply ignoring reality.

      Only the UK can define the UK. Certainly not a newspaper. Millions of us here in the USA stand with you.
