As in Massoud or a forummer?

I will not have you bad mouth Massoud, this guy did the graveyard shift for a month, without pay in order to land his job. It's their bosses who are corrupt, the front line journalist could write a perfectly balanced piece and it will make no difference.

People like Rothfield and Wilson would pitching their own stories though, they would be entirely at fault.

Firstly, it was a question, not directed at you and without prejudice. Secondly, I know Massoud in real life. I've told him to his face what I think of his articles and bias and he knows very well my thoughts; so much so that we are sadly not on speaking terms any more. So back off; you have NFI about my relationship with him.

Massoud can write, and he is very intelligent. I'm well aware of his graveyard shift beginning and was a supporter of his first articles and indeed many of his others as he progressed in the Sports department. But people and their priorities change, and Josh is one of those. To me, he is now part of the system and part of the problem of Journalism in the modern day, along with all other News Ltd staff.

Also, nice work on not naming who you worked for. Its fairly obvious now.

I didn't work for the DT and the intention was to make it obvious without naming it directly.

I never claimed to know anything about your relationship with him, I have never even met him, I just know him to be a hard worker and personally I think it's wrong of you to mention your personal fallout with him on a public forum. But like most people who are religious, you have clear double standards.

I'm not the churchy type cliffy, but I think a deep breath and a stroll around the block would be good for you as well.

No way, trolling religious people is way, way more fun.

Plus, if Drew-Sta thought he had the right to tell me that I should go on meds and tried to make me feel like a bad person for being sceptical of them and now I'm not one to hold grudges, but I think I should return the favour and suggest he determine his own values from scratch and think for himself.

Cliffy, I asked a simple question of Twizzle and you jump on me like I've made some horrid attack on him. You made it personal by claiming 'you won't let me bad mouth him' (which I didn't) then you brought religion into it. Talk about making it personal!

The reason I referenced my relationship with him was to identify that I wasn't being some keyboard hero; clearly you're not interested in being civil though.

I haven't done anything wrong. Why would I stop discussion? Also, why do you feel the need to keep being personal?

If this is trolling, you're doing it wrong.

:lol: Ok, showing genuine interest in your well being is making you feel bad, eh? Nice work Clifford.

Drew-Sta had a meltdown if anything.

:lol::lol: Yes, meltdown. Riiiiiiiiight :roll:

I know you were asking a question, twizz didn't make it clear who he was referring to, hence why I quoted you, if you got your head out of your arse for one second you would have understood that. Then you got all pissy about your right to diss him, like knowing someone personally gives you the right to attack them publicly and now you talk about being civil. Lol

Not taking interest, you tried to push me to take medication as if it was the only option and suggested I was hurting the people around me by not taking it.

You acted like an authority on it based only on the fact you had a friend who suffered from it.
