Community'' [https://www.york-me-community.org/tag/unrest/ Unrest List of Articles] ''Unrest'' also led to groundbreaking and unprecedented positive media articles for ME sufferers in the [[United Kingdom]] which documented the history, politics and denial of the biomedical evidence for psychosomatic theories and the involvement of insurance companies and psychiatrists in the disease of ME. This information was available on the internet but had not been published in the mainstream media as this had previously been impossible due to the power and influence of the [[biopsychosocial]] psychiatrists and [[Science Media Centre]]. On 2 November 2017 the Huffington Post UK reported [http://m.huffingtonpost.co.uk/dr-simon-duffy/uk-establishment-me_b_18375968.html 'Will The UK Establishment Finally Stop Denying The Reality Of ME?'] which in a first examined the injustice faced by ME sufferers due to the British psychiatrists and the largest research trial, the [[PACE trial]]. On 7 January 2018, ''The Independent'' published [http://www.independent.co.uk/news/long_reads/why-patients-me-demanding-justice-millions-missing-chronic-fatigue-illness-disease-a8133616.html 'Time for Unrest: Why patients with ME are demanding justice'] which also investigated in-depth the history of the injustice faced by ME sufferers and the involvement of certain psychiatrists and insurance industry and Dr [[David Tuller]]'s expose of the [[PACE trial]] which was also commented on by the film's director. <ref>{{Cite news | url=https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/949819417927540737.html | title = Thread by @jenbrea: ".@_NathalieWright's withering @Independent piece lays bear the gaps in how is viewed on either side of the pond and the vested intere […]" #mecfs #pwme|access-date=2018-10-14|language=en}}</ref>
