The Manchester Evening News

[Bournemouth Blue]

As a resident of Bournemouth, I don’t tend to follow the MEN, but after the last couple of weeks I was somewhat shocked how anti-City the local rag is these days. They seem to be so biased towards the Salford team. Do they really seem to want to alienate a huge proportion of their potential readers? Mods might wish to transfer this to the media thread, but I think this deserves a discussion of it’s own.

It's a pile of shit full stop.

It's not local anything. It's part of the Reach aggregators stable.

MUEN, written for Rags by Rags and has been for years.
I wouldn't wipe my arse on the printed version and won't click on anything posted on line.
The sooner this shitstain of a publication goes under the better.

Not looked at it for years. I haven’t missed it and enjoy the thought of their ‘journalists’ getting laid off through lack of engagement.
The printed press is dead.
Tinternet will be dead for them if they don’t get engagement.
Simple view but I’m much happier for it.
Give it a try.
Sack the MUEN.

Not bought one since the Pink finished and will never, ever buy another. It’s a pile of shite written for shite readers. Does anyone buy it these days?

If you walk through town they struggle to give the shite away.
