Media thread 2022/23

[awest]

The media have figured out they get a lot of ratings if they reinforce people's hateful feelings towards their target despite what the reality is.

This tends to happen in the political channels a lot and it never receives pushback.

The only time I've seen a media body held to account is the 787 million dollar settlement by Fox News. But make no mistake.. they probably made 10-15 times that much if they can afford to write a check of 787 million dollars for it to go away.

That very strategy is being employed by Sky/ BT and other media outlets who now know they can make a lot of money airing City hatred to the masses and this will make them major money.

It's like a drug to a drug addict.. reinforcing their validation of hate. And good luck trying to convince a drug addict that the drug is bad for them.

It won't really stop till City actually go to court and show damage to their brand with tons of proof, and wanting money for damages caused by libel and defamation!

Are we the Donald Trump of soccerdoo?

Nothing about method so I suppose it is as informative as Nick Harris's Twitter polls,

Well if 50 per cent did understand as Prestwich Blue has pointed out a lot of the charges are immaterial even if proven and from years ago so if they did understand they wouldn't want an asteria, it doesn't follow. So that's flawed as well.

His time line is retweeting rag propaganda and the occasional dig at Newcastle and their owners.

Totally independent journalism.

It's just ridiculous. No-one knows what the club has been charged with, not even the best informed on here. All anybody knows are the rule breaches, which don't tell anybody anything really. They must be stupid putting that in their "survey" because it totally undermines the validity of the other responses.

I’ve been reading this thread for months and haven’t got a scooby.

Did they get Nick fucking Harris to do it? He is the expert at meaningless Twitter polls.
