The results of our water samples from the River Wensum show very high levels of E.Coli bacteria present, resulting in a very high risk level. These high levels of E.Coli stem from sewage being spilled from combined sewage overflows. More must be done to prevent this.

I asked ChatGPT this question. It didn’t understand and compiled an essay on using the press to win legitimacy and to win support for laws, rather than using the law to win good press. Imagine a media organisation downplaying its influence!

Jacob Mukherjee@DrMukhers

📢NEWS! I’m doing a series of videos called Keywords, each on a concept to do with power, politics, media. Aim to be simple, clear, useful to students / interested people. Will do one for each letter - not in order but starting with A for Algorithm: youtu.be/XWm1xNsq1d4 1/3
