Media Discussion - 2023/24

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

The problem is with the digital sports team where banter culture has destroyed any effective editorial control of content. The BBC has severely damaged its own brand by allowing its own staff to repeatedly publish their biased personal opinions on social media platforms. It is an abuse of taxpayers' money.

Full of Rag's and Dipper's.

The way they 'sanitise' the comments on the sports pages would put Joseph Goebbels to shame.

Fucking hell, whoever Kevin Garside is on inews he really hates City. One of the worst articles I have ever read about us. Presumably he is a rag? Sorry don’t know how to post links, and not sure I’d want to, the bitter ****

You can tell that some writers are fans of rival clubs and just can't get over that.

There are clearly plenty of things fucked up about football these days, and obviously some legitimate questions about City, but the relentless nonsense you get from some writers is ridiculous. It's like using bluemoon, redcafe or rawk as your impartial worldview.

Never a surprise when you google them and find out they've written books about United or Liverpool.

I hope our press office and legal team are aligned and storing up these hundreds of deliberately misleading, hateful, often racist, articles so they can go to town on the cartel-loving cunts when we are exonerated.

Garside is a total moron. He thinks we are funded by a Sovereign Wealth Fund. Not even Der Spiegl accused us of that. If we are funded by a Sovereign Wealth Fund then why has the PL accused Sheikh Mansour of inappropriate owner investment?

don't give them ideas

Hope so. I’ve been hoping that for a decade!

Sorry no.This as good as it gets for me,I cannot speak for others like you seem able to do.

Same as. I have tried and its a drag tbh. I am not that savvy. Anyhow the more content I could put up the more ban hammers I wpuld probably get

Not a chance. Unfortunately.

So many things plainly wrong in that Henry Winter piece this morning.

Hate to say it, but the Athletic have been pretty even-handed about this, explaining why these routine PSR cases are different to ours.

There is an undercurrent of anti-PL feeling in all the other articles which makes me more suspicious about press motives than some cheap shots at City.

Now, who benefits from the PL losing some of its sparkle, I wonder?
