Mediawatch special: Clickbait and the tragic death of a child

When Mediawatch writes interminably about clickbait, it generally means f*** all. But then this happens and the tears flow.

Well done Mediawatch. This shameful clickbaiting needs calling out more often.

Fucking scousers, no shame!

That’s a low cheap shot when all they have had for 10 years is dreams. Thank Christ they havnt been delivering trophies

Now if fed ex or the royal mail had any sense they'd be on this with city as official partners.

When it's just too important to leave to your imagination, choose us. Delivering results, not dreams.

Absolutely nailed it. And even offers a ‘mea culpa’ on the redshirts while some on here still deny it goes on

Yes. Apart from the countrywide reach they have the unnatural grouping of the former Mirror Group papers with Express Newpapers which take opposite political views but altogether they can influence their hard of thinking readers without them even realising it.
But it is football where their combined might affects us as they are so heavily biased towards the Redshirts. Worst still, both the Mail (Samuel excepted) and the Sun get into the same bed. As a result the country as a whole does not have a satisfactory coverage of the game it exports to the world.

I worked in news print and media in the very early days as this insidious entity began to grow. I don’t think many people (me included) recognised just how fast they would evolve and become so influential.

They also hold the keys to the People and the Star, so their influence on the knuckle dragging and football news hungry fan is really substantial.

They also run a large stable of some quite unexpected brands and publications like OK Magazine and the quaintly titled Black Country Bugle.

As they grow the market constricts still further. Information is power and all that.

Absolutely pathetic by BBC.
Clubs PR should be all over this, tell them to fuck off with interviews on MOTD like the Rags used to.

And now:
Not a £100m finish that.

He's got previous this Hafez fella. A quick glance at his twitter account shows his allegiance to all things Rag.

But the good old BBC give him a platform to take the piss.

Again, never 75 million Jadon Bencho is it

It's proving to be a frustrating night for City.

The £100m man Jack Grealish is playing as a 'false nine' but has made little impact on the game so far.
