Is there any other daily paper up there in Brisbane?
Response from David Fagan
Dear (name removed),
I'm not sure which day you refer to but afl has a strong following in queens lan so would be well representdnin the paper. I'd be amazed if it exceeded League coverage on any day. Tell me the date and Ill double-check hownyou allegedly red the paper.

Not sure that a newspaper editor should be allowed to reply to someone with such terrible grammar and spelling, but it was lovely to receive a response accusing me of lying.

More importantly, did Fagan actually write that? I have a hard time believing an editor in chief can't construct a proper sentence or spell properly.

so who's Fagan's boss?
I don't believe it!!
There was no fumbleball on the Sydney Ch 10 news tonight.
Morgan asked Fagan about the difference between the Mail’s print and Internet editions and how much of that was explained by editorial influence. Fagan said ten percent of newspaper content ends up online. He said younger people prefer to read the online edition. It was a matter of experimenting he said, trying and failing new things.
We are having a go at the Daily Telegraph for printing bias anti AFL propaganda or none of it whilst posters on LU are pissed off with the Courier for printing articles on Aussie Rules![]()
So when they feel Aussie Rules gets more "air time" then RL, they even go as far as posting the sports editors email link on a thread and urge other posters to send emails. So a Sydney RL supporter will email The Courier newspaper even though he never reads it and states in his email that he will never buy the paper due to Aussie Rules articles...a bit far fetched you would think
In the past they have done this for MPs, tv presenters ie the insiders etc
But what I do is also email these people (thanks to them posting their email address) and give them support, also explain why they may be getting some "extra" emails from League fans with a link to the thread on their forum....
Love my work...
Anyway regarding the Daily Telegraph it will eventually come to its senses...popularity will force it...
