Synopsis

"Shame on you" The chant that echoed off the walls of BBC offices across the nation in early 2022, as protests broke out over the prospect of vaccine mandates and vaccine passports. During what was arguably the most tumultuous and challenging period of our lives.

Many believe that journalists in the mainstream media failed us - right when we needed them most.

Sensing that something was amiss, former BBC and ITV journalist Anna Brees took the decision to put her media training work on hold to report on the goings-on of Covid-19.

This is a story of her personal experience during that period - not only as a single parent of three children - but also as a professional journalist. It's a treasure trove of anecdotal evidence, including conversations she had - both on and off the record with other journalists from the likes of BBC, ITV and Sky News.

On her search for answers, Anna asked the question: why did they abandon their journalistic ethics and fail to provide fair and balanced reporting during the Covid crisis? Exclusive conversations with some of TVs most prominent editors reveal the reasons behind the lack of balance in their reporting. Posing the question of whether it's necessary to betray the confidence of a source, especially on a subject of immense public interest.

First review:
"Shame captures the raw fear, panic, stress and anger many of us felt back in 2020. Anna's journey from then until now gives it an unexpected and powerful twist."
