Although Barnfield had never suggested a causal link between TV and happy slapping, the press release sent out the night before the programme was shown on May 12 claimed he had, and it was on this that the BBC and other media based their stories.

 The dope sheet that duped the world

Either way, the trail of paperwork from Trnopolje to ITN's HQ on Gray's Inn Road and beyond suggests that those who want to know the whole truth about the camps story will have to do more than round up the usual suspects among the tabloid press.

Mas o fenômeno do 'happy slapping', na opinião de especialistas como Graham Barnfield, professor de Estudos em Mídia da Universidade de East London, é uma conseqüência muito mais direta da popularidade de programas de “pegadinhas” ou de cenas de dor e humilhação, como “Jackass” e “Dirty Sanchez”, atrações dos canais da MTV.

The craze has been blamed by an academic, Graham Barnfield, on shows such as Jackass TV and Dirty Sanchez who says that these shows promote copy cat attacks.
If you actually examine what Graham Barnfield (of the University of East London - my old University!) said, he merely said that happy slapping was a sympton of an increasingly voyeuristic society - but that it was a non-story which had hardly reached epidemic proportions.
