Does the media report climate protests responsibly?
How direct action stunts grab headlines over coverage of Cop27.
How should journalists cover climate protests? The climate conference Cop27 ends this week. But you might have seen more about the activists who threw oil on a Gustav Klimt painting in Vienna yesterday. Or the protesters who brought the M25 to a standstill last week.
