Leeds Ram Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I am really not surprised, this is the daily mail here, mind you the guardian misinterpreted what the judge was saying and initially came out with a guilty verdict, this was rectified within about 5 minutes i think.

Cisse Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 What kind of journalists do you have there ? They are idiots down here but mostly they understand which way the verdict goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Ram Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 well it depends cisse, we have many bad ones in the tabloids etc and some decent ones usually in the broadsheets,I read the guardian and usually that is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Its not so much the individual journalists, its more the ethic (or lack of it) of the papers owners. The desperation to get it out first (ooerrr missus), rather than be accurate, takes over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisse Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Still that is bad. But they can mess up here also. Our crappiest newspaper did an awful article last month. In Russia plane which was flying an ice hockey team to away game crashed. The whole team died. They had a Finnish goalie coach who had been ordered to stay home and coach the reserve team. Minutes after the crash came public this dude from the paper calls the goalie coach, tells him what has just happened and does a short phone interview. The article comes out the next day. There is an old picture of the goalie coach with a smile on his face and with huge letters text lucky guy ( loses in translation ). The goalie coach who was basically in shock after hearing about the crash is telling how lucky and happy he is. From the text you can see that the interviewer puts the words in his mouth and the coach is so shocked that he repeats everything the paper guy wants him to say. I hope the coach never got to see the article because it made him look pretty cold and I know it all leads to this interviewer being an ********.

Perky1106 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Amanda Knox is hot. But that aside, newspapers are made to make money through outrageous headlines that make people glance at them shop and think "Wtf?" Quality is forfeited and things are rushed, such as this. Doesn't help the Daily Mail's case that pretty much everyone on the internet hates it, apart from middle England housewives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Daily Mail is a rubbish paper anyway, they always spin everything out in the most Conservative way possible. The reading age of that article is about 12. It's not as bad as the Express, they publish some downwright dangerous articles. And I'd love to throw chewits at the people who write in to these papers, blaming absoltuely everything on immigrants. Apparently our bins would be collected more regularly if it wasn't for the Poles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to stay away from any newspaper, or indeed thing, that supported Hitler. And surely if you threw chewits at Express 'journalists', they'd blame it on immigrants, thus worsening the problem?

Ladyram, sort your chewitless life out! And well, yeah, I could, but I don't want to hurt someone badly - just demonstrate my anger at them. Don't want to be done for assault do I, and it would probably defeat the purpose of protesting against people who are for capital punishment if I seriously injure them in the process. The chewit is the perfect weapon of choice for me. Lick 'em before you throw and they're enough to annoy the victim and put a bit of a downer on their day.

Leeds Ram Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Seriously this paper should be called the daily scum, they blame absolutely everything on immigrants and probably think we should live in a pure blood ayrian society with everyone in love with Christianity, i personally would throw a brick at the editor if i could let alone a chewit duracell 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' /> of course this is hypothetical, if i was in the actual situation would probably just get involved in a reasoned debate with them, i can't stand peter hitchens though.

JoetheRam Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 The most conservative, scare-mongering, royal family loving, foreigner hating, working class despising, transfer 'rumour' stirring, young person witch-hunting paper out there. It is on a par with the Sun. Terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangerous Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 The best paper on the stand. I read it every day and although its sport isnt the best,it appeals to me more than the celebrity ***** filled tabloids.

The Daily Mail is right up there with the Sun for un-balanced writing and it's pretty poorly written. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
