Imagine a story - surplus vaccines were not wasted. Any spare vaccines due to no shows were given to the most suitable recipients we could find at very short notice.
This is not the sort of story the media want to use. The media feed off controversy and conflict which sells column inches and maximises TV audiences. If there isn't a good story, they will simply invent one, or at least skew any reporting.
By distorting stories, selective reporting, political bias or skewed unbalanced analysis the media are failing woefully to use the power they have responsibly.
