It happens from time to time. Lazy journos and tabloid press seem to have something in common.

I got quoted once by the Sydney Morning Herald. I'm still waiting for the cheque. lol

The thing that makes me laugh is they rarely mention the source. That is apart from saying its from the evil 'internet chat rooms'.

James Hooper is another lazy journalist. I am surprised that Mascord would lower himself to scouring forums, but I guess that's what happens when you leave Fairfax for News Ltd...

The pressue must be on when you are looking through internet forums for a story.

lol Gregstar I never get anything published either...maybe we just dont have what Hollywood directors refer to as 'it'.

I was a little disappointed in the context they were quoted, that stuff can look bad for saints fans in general. To say it like I was trying to incite a violent act against someone from channel 9 is ridiculous.

There's a big difference between giving someone a verbal spray and beating up Joe the cameraman......

Doesn't surprise me at all. He's a pony tailed little chat that looks in need of a good TUB, and has a head like a twisted sandshoe.:crazy:

This morning I endured the misfortune of 2KY's Big Sports Breakfast (car pooling - it has drawbacks), and the so-called issue was touched on again by Terry Kennedy, who referred to unofficial internet forums as the "scourge of society". I disagree - as far as I know, that honour still rests comfortably with talkback radio.

It is TK you're talking about Godz. A good wholesome family man who wouldn't say sh*t for sixpence, and still part's his pubes with Californian Poppy.

Its a control thing. Only the mainstream media are allowed to talk sh*te.

There are some decent ones offcourse, they're usually stuck out the back blocks of the ABC trying to provide balanced information. Meanwhile their overpaid colleagues (usually in the commercial networks) are reaping the benefits of acting like complete tools.

I swear that some of these so-called experts know SFA about rugby league... which is unfortunate becuase they probably had a handle on things once upon a time.

I'm not talking about opinion, its when they just start talking absolute bullsh*t and quite frankly, they embarrass themselves.

I'd rather read a typo-infested match report from a level-headed fan any day of the week.

It's amazing it's perfectly allright for Roy Hardley and his bunch of merry men to sit around and sprout any old bullsh*t and that team is not on their own but the moment we fans,The people that make this special game what it is voice our opinion we are nothing but league satanists.

You know what,all you media trolling pricks can kiss mine and every other supporters arse if any person or orginisation are league satanists it's you bunch of news ltd soul selling arseholes.

Its 'Media Watch' - and they wouldnt bother with a dodgy hack who only does half arsed 'football' stories about what someone may have inferred online somewhere once upon a time.
Not a bad watch though
