Media bias against City

Status
Not open for further replies.
This is the biggest tin foil helmet thread ever.

The media exists to sell itself. They want to appeal to the masses. There are more United and Liverpool fans than City fans. They are going to post more articles in their favor than they will about City.

Who cares what Martin Tyler says - I can't hear it when I'm stood in the SouthStand.
 
Jesus, where's the alzheimer's meds when you need them. That's right, he knee'd that one in didn't he?

Ha, it can happen to the best of us mate. I used to be able to effortlessly remember details of games stretching back decades (well, to the late 80s when I started going, at least), yet the other day I couldn't for the life of me remember our game at White Hart Lane last season.

Anyway, back on topic.

So, today's evidence of an agenda against City is Sky Sports News (correctly) pointing out that Jurgen Klopp would be only the second German to manage in the PL after Felix Magath, and Martin Tyler (correctly) pointing out that the last time United were three goals down at half-time was against Middlesbrough in 2005.

Compelling evidence.

George has it bad though tbf.
Like the politics thread, this one will always have the odd one who stretch the extreme as far as they can.
 
Had to laugh at 5Live this morning. Regarding interest in signing Coutinho, that comes from MCFC 'and other clubs'. Clearly, insert the name of the devil first for maximum effect.

Have we had any update on column inches in the Manchester Evening News for the last three month period?

I think on the last count it was running 60-40 in Uniteds favour. Not had an update on measurements from that poster for a while.

I know I take the mick a little (as many do of me) but I genuinely hope their 'Agenda' at finding slights against City is not detracting enjoyment, for them, from what a wonderful time this is to support City

The Uwe comment and United being 3-0 down at half time (which have both proved accurate) shows the desperation to be outraged by the media.
 
If we're gonna be outraged at incorrect information in the media, can we at least get our facts right on here?

There's been a few facepalm moments in the last 3 pages. ;-)

First time I have looked at the hard edition of the MEN for over a year this morning while sat in a reception and I did notice the rags had two pages for their match report as against one page for the City match report, which funnily enough had me immediately thinking of this thread.

As for finding slights, this week on the worlds biggest sports radio station I have heard from one of their announcers "Everyone is sick of City because of the money" and "Pellegrini is on his last legs".
I await to see if these comments are proved accurate or they can be filed under Media bias against City.
