I won't keep harping on this, since I don't know anything about the incident beyond what the article says, but I just glanced at it again, and it really reads like the writer is trying hard to give it a certain spin: in the opening sentence, he says, 'one group of Croydon Morris dancers was banned from a pub ... after culture killjoys reported their "offensive" routine to police' - but later in the article, we find out that, rather than "culture killjoys" reporting an '"offensive" routine', it was ONE neighbour making a noise complaint. And while "offensive" is presented in quotation marks, it does not appear to be an actual quote.

Blatantly irresponsible journalism gets in my craw. I'll stay out of this now, and let those closer to the action have their say.
