Exposing the hypocrisy of journalists

Why isn't Ewan Mckenna boycotting Twitter?

He urged City fans to boycott City because our 'owners' (by which he means the UAE Government I assume) are contributing to the war in Yemen. Yet one of the biggest shareholders in Twitter is part of the Saudi royal family and has tweeted that he will reward members of the Saudi Air Force with 100 Bentleys for their involvement in the conflict in Yemen.

If he was a man of principle like he claims to be, he'd do us all a fucking favour and delete his account.

Because he is a hypocritical twat
 
The independent finally got around to correcting Delaney's 'i hate city' article on the treble to correctly differentiate Etihad and Emirates. Of course the footnote is still wrong, as they have both claimed we're sponsored by Emirates, and then claimed that Etihad sponsored the FA Cup.

What's notable, however, is that at no point did Delaney admit to his lying, actually insisting he'd never claimed it.

Also, I do have to wonder what the effect of private eye contacting them about the article had, as that's what happened per the PE journalist i'd been speaking to and suddenly the article was corrected. Obviously a complete coincidence.
 
'Kin ell. Just been reading through MacKenna's timeline. He's obviously in the wrong business as he hates sports. Within the last few days someone has pissed on his chips over: the Cricket World Cup Final, Dublin GAA, City, Megan Rapinoe and Flamengo. He must have been the fat kid at school who was picked last in literally every single PE lesson.

Nah, he's the kid with a (badly written ) excuse note from his Mam explaining about Ewan's small testicle.
 
Anyone who wants to boycott City because of the UAE's involvement in Yemen should also be boycotting anything with links to Saudi Arabia (the major coalition partner) or the United Kingdom or the United States (principal suppliers of deadly weapons including bombs that kill little, innocent children). So that's all of us boycotted, basically.

The hypocrisy stinks all the way to heaven. In any other context, if you protest against the violence of states towards civilians, they call you a Commie, or something equally derogatory. Say it in an anti-City context, and it's fine. Hypocritical ****s - they are like vegans who eat meat 6 a days week.
