Who do you believe to be the most trustworthy reporter on this mess?

[The Prosecutor]

The only ones worth listebning to

Bec Wilson
Caroline Wilson
Patrick Smith
Tim Lane
Roy Masters
Damian Barrett
Baker and McKenzie


I wont read anyone elses articles as the rest of the media are all paid mouthpieces for the AFL and/or Bombers

Especially avoid SEN and Channel 7 at all costs

The cognitive dissonance is amazing in this one.

What sort of pyschosis causes people to believe that reporters always tell them the truth ?

Surely CAS with have to wait to read this before they can reach a decision?

Chip has had a good run of guesses or leaks. But I'm not buying it without the last page.

His articles have just been teasers for the HTB , the juicy allegations against former parties will be the intresting stuff.

Good resource for the CAS members to SWOT up on.

Latest WADA piece on the role of media and anti-doping:

https://www.wada-ama.org/en/media/news/2015-05/wada-op-ed-media-the-4th-estate-in-anti-doping

I liked this component - not sure how much of this we have seen, from most of the AFL-accredited journos:

"There are two other areas where media can really have an impact on the anti-doping cause. Firstly, in reporting instances of doping publicly at the appropriate time, and with the athlete having a fear of being “named and shamed”, the media can help significantly in deterring athletes and their entourage from doping in the first place. WADA believes that, in many instances, the thought of being announced as a doper would strongly dissuade athletes from contemplating doping. In other words, the risk would outweigh the reward.

Secondly, media can also play a role in promoting the positive initiatives in anti-doping. We are beginning to see this more and more. Athletes across the world – through bodies such as the WADA Athlete Committee and through Outreach initiatives – are communicating the clean sport message to thousands of current and aspiring athletes. They are letting these athletes know, not only what their rights and responsibilities are, but why doping is dangerous and wrong; and, that there is a better way: the clean sport way. "

Robbo's article this morning, did him no favours on this ladder of merit.

Yup - I nearly posted that link in the Robbo thread. But whilst very topical to the way that Robbo doesn't report (with another good example to foam over), seemed more relevant here, as none of the AFL accredited journos are any where near this, at the moment.

Which is further example of the distance between what the AFL says (to ASADA/WADA) and how they actually run their dirty, little circus.
