star Dylan Page has called out News for ‘spinning the story’ during his interview.

The personality, who is best known for covering shocking news and current events, revealed he was contacted by the broadcaster and the team complimented his online content.

However, he expressed his shock when he noticed the edited interview was ‘different’ to his initial conversation.

In his latest TikTok, Dylan said: ‘As soon as we open the first sentence is just straight bullets.

‘They say teenagers get their news from TikTok more than anywhere else, and yet Dylan Page is a one man band reporting to the masses from his flat in Devon.’

Dylan quipped that he actually lived in a ‘very nice’ three bedroom house and urged the channel to not treat viewers like they were ‘stupid.’

Referencing a chart used in the segment highlighting the percentages of people that get their news from social media, he noticed that the channel missed everyone between the ages of 25 to 54.

‘Despite them cutting and not showing my answer to misinformation on social media, they play this man’s answer which is just overwhelmingly negative.

‘They then talk about TikTok’s connection with China and then frame it like they’re getting this news from the app itself.

‘Framing it like that just discredits all the amazing creators we have on there including professionals like doctors, dentists, lawyers, journalists and let’s not forget ITV themselves.’

Dylan’s followers weighed in on the situation, with one person writing: ‘This is why we don’t watch news on TV.’

While another joked: ‘They really thought they did something.’
