The article uses information from an article previously published in the AFR that did use data tables compiled by me from VOZ - and I didnt require credit for, as its not why I do this. In both articles, they got data from Seven and Nine directly, but nothing from Foxtel.

With me its a case of saying heres the data I have, this is what it says, this is what other media releases have said from the broadcasters and Nine and letting them find their own conclusions.

I dont require citation or credit when I assist a journo, although sometimes they do it anyway. Ive had journos from NRL.com, SEN, News Limited - including the Telegraph, Nine newspapers including the SMH, the ABC, and the Guardian ask for information or just clarification from time to time.
Is this account run by that obviously biased AFL fan that runs the “sports industry” Twitter account?

In the old days .. these AFL flogs used to get banished to the Fightclub sub forum where they could be avoided …reading his dribble doesn’t do much for “serious” discussions elsewhere on the forum ..

This jerk is a racist misogynist flog but the mods do nothing. Go figure?

So you are an anti semitic troll mate? Well played!

Try not to make this thread political petal.
Not anti semitic or a troll, just allergic to dumb hypocritical pricks like yourself.

Usual conservative move as well, putting that as your avatar is a political in itself. You’re right though this isn’t the forum to have a proper political conversation.

So you go ahead, lie about me and engage in political conversation? What a bloody hypocrite. I like the way you’ve put me in a little box to make yourself feel smug. You have no idea at all what I think on any political matter. But go ahead and label me mate. It must feel so good and all :)

The flog accused abdos figures of being exaggerated

Disagreeing with head office doesnt make you a flog. It means his analysis dosnt quite line up with the official line.

With so much at stake cutting through the spin can be difficult. An analysis of the official numbers suggests they might be smaller than claimed by head office. But Mr Abdo might still have a point on who is the biggest.

Now we know his sources we know why he said that

All of the information in his article came from official sources. He did not get data from me at all for this article. Numbers came from OZtam, Nine, Seven and Abdo - as indicated in the article.

Why did he accuse abdo of lieing ?

Breh could you be anymore hypocritical. Complaining about being labelled after calling me anti semitic and the other poster a racist mysoginist.

I don’t feel smug btw. I don’t like people being massacred nor those who support it and I’m happy to call people out on that.

I think you’ll find you started this discourse by falsely labelling me a racist. You then chose to claim to know my political allegiances.
On both counts you are wrong. You don’t know me.
If you want to carry on like this then grow up and cart your smart little ass off to the four corners circle jerk.
You’ll be quite at home with that morbid pack of whingers.
Off you go laddy.

He didnt really. He said that his analysis of the data showed that it might be an exaggeration.
So he just made something up with no proof ?

The funniest part of the article was where the afl declined to comment on the ratings disparity

Luckily Andrew abdo knows what the real ratings are he’s not waiting for pro afl sources and pro afl journos to give their biased takes
