What we found (1)

LBC gives sustained space to researchers affected by the ILR changes and attributes the warnings of an exodus in its body to MPs, Universities UK and the researchers themselves. Its headline puts in quotation marks a sentence nobody in the article said. The nearest is Jai Wei Lee's question, which LBC rewords while keeping its sense.

  1. Headline goes beyond the article

    Minor

    “How am I meant to rebuild my whole life again?”

    Why this matters
    LBC puts "How am I meant to rebuild my whole life again?" in quotation marks as if someone said those exact words.
    The impression it gives
    A reader believes an interviewee said this sentence word for word.
    The context
    The nearest quotation in the article is Jai Wei Lee's question, worded differently. The sense is close, so the reader is not misled about what was meant, but the quotation marks hold words nobody in the article said.
