Roast The media....*Shakes Head* Part 5

[bomberclifford]

Not surprising really you only need to see who Ali Clarke, the presenter of the program this subject was raised on, is married to

Hold on, isn't she one of the many AFC Ambassadors in the media?

I don't believe she has been made an official ambassador yet. I'm not sure if being married to a Crers' employee disqualifies her from an Ambassadorship.

Nah instead he got puff pieces from the footy experts & his mates like David King about how any amount of game suspension would be too harsh a penalty similar to when he rammed Chad's head into the point post, hypocrisy at it's finest.
No doubt Jars stuffed up but it's been massive overkill from the rabid media, from pitching tents on Gus' property to ambushing the players at training you wonder why these people can't do similar to actual criminals considering there are far worse things happening at the moment in this state that are being downplayed.

With this happening I'm starting to think we should go back to the days when we told the press bugger all and if one of our guys screwed up we kept it within the club, who cares if the great unwashed of SA thinks the punishment has been enough.
Daniel Talia's speeding 36 over the limit was not reported day in and day out even though he kept on reminding us of it himself by taking it through the courts with his 'vomiting cat' defence. Matthew Jaensch was another who there were minimum stories about although he blew .0137 and on another occasion was involved in an assault case at a pub.

Are you trying to suggest with a straight face that they would have an issue with conflict of interest? Really

Yeah, it's like rain on your wedding day.

Prefer Marx Kretschmer's (alleged) technique of throwing News reporter Lawrie Jervis under the showers.

or a free ride when you've already paid.

It must be xmas time I am going to send myself to the corner to think about my behaviour

The lack of Jaensch coverage is the clearest proof of hypocrisy.

Ben Cousins is in the news again. Interesting how they call him 'troubled' whereas Jarman is labled as 'out of control ' lol

What crime did he commit at VRO Beach?

Was his dog off the leash?

He swam outside the flags, allegedly.

Very poor effort with the Westhoff article.

Instead of reporting on The Big Issue program and the people it helps, Adelaide gets another pointless article on Impey.

Obviously the two page spread and McDimwitts article weren't enough for what surely must be the most important breaking news story in the world today.

 

[bomberclifford]

So they take the name of a social cause NFP (Big Issue) and use it to have a dig at Port because Port players are doing something to raise awareness for said NFP.

Classy.

 

[Quadzilla]

You got a pic of McDimshit article on leniency?

Feel free to tweet him...

I just tweeted him

@ChrisSMcDermott disgraceful Mr Mac

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. Remember your bucks night at Planet nightclub in 2000?

 

[Quadzilla]

2000 ... Chris McDermott's bucks night at the Planet nightclub incident when he was arrested and charged with assault, resisting arrest and threatening life, yet in todays paper he slams the "leniency" handed to Jarman Impey.

An eyewitnness at the time said "he got some mighty good punches in on the coppers as well as they were dragging him out"

Everything about this media campaign has been 'classy.' A high caliber of Journos at the Advertiser.

Now that is what this thread was created for. What a disgrace.

Cannot believe that Sean Fewster has compared what Jars did to the actions of Eugene McGee.

Remembering that Mcgee got pissed, hit and killed a cyclist, didn't stop, dumped his car, had his brother drive him through a police roadblock direct to his lawyers house where he could remain until after he knew he could not be breath tested. Yeah - sounds exactly the same...

What a headline grabbing scumbag.

Sean Fewster had previously always dealt in facts as the Advertisers' court reporter but now it appears his bosses have got to him and are getting him to write pieces for people to salivate over.

lmao at the two page spread, that's like a joke someone here would make, "imagine if next wednesday there's still double page articles about this"

I tend to agree. Tell them nothing.

When is the last time the advertiser ran a story about bullying and the possible consequences to the victim of such bullying?
