Wonder how they can reduce our 'dedicated' reporter? 0 minus 0.5....

Trouble is what is replacing the MSM are just YouTube/Podcast fanboys who are not better.

Simon Mullock and Jeremy Cross also in the firing line.

Reach have put them in to pods, essentially telling all their writers to fight to the death and justify their existence.

Reach using the same writers to fill all their shite titles.

It was always gonna end up this way and thank fuck I saw it long ago.

Says it all. Less reporting on 115. Maybe the result is known or at least the way the wind is blowing to favour City.

City only mentioned in paragraph 2, from what I can see and it seems fair enough.

“The former Blackburn Rovers, Rangers and Manchester City defender, who led the national side at the 1998 World Cup, pleaded guilty to harassment without violence at Preston Magistrates Court.”

Main headline link to the story.
