Summarization
The tweets discuss the lack of coverage by media outlets on the recent trial involving Alex Salmond and a sexual misconduct case.

There is also criticism of the Scottish MSM's handling of the case and their shock at the recent developments. Some imply that there was a fix, resulting in only the prosecution's case being reported. It is suggested that in the coming weeks, more information may be revealed. Finally, there is criticism of the BBC and other media outlets for their coverage of the case.

Emotional Analysis
The tweets express a range of emotions, including frustration, anger, and disbelief. The tweeters are questioning why the media, particularly Radio Tay News, did not report on certain information related to a trial involving a woman identified as 'H.' They speculate that the media is part of a larger cover-up and express disappointment in the Scottish journalistic community. Some tweets express empathy for the accused, Alex, who they feel has been wrongly vilified. Other tweets express a lack of trust in the justice system and highlight the need for accountability for those who have committed perjury.

1637405477867757569 | @RuralLeader @RadioTayNews Because the fix was in. Only the prosecution case was reported in all its lurid fantastical detailโฆ | 4 |

1637412381885169666 | @RuralLeader @WingsScotland @RadioTayNews I mean, that entire thread is completely laughable but Alex is still vilified and shunned by all and sundry. Scandalous. | 1 |
1637469966545956869 | @andrewgmorton @RuralLeader @pilaraymara @RadioTayNews Iโll be honest, I still have no idea of who any of the alpha-Bettyโs are. What I do know though is that, even without that knowledge I was able to clearly see the fabrication of it all. And for those that committed perjury an appropriate jail sentence should be applied imo. | 1 |
