One thing is clear:
We know not to come to you lot when we want something done.
You are so busy P!issing on each other you forgot about everything else, then wonder why things are so crap for you.
Anyway, you need to focus and refuse to accept these things. YOU ALL are the papers customer.....THEY WORK FOR YOU!?
Its a simple case of how you think.
When you have a purpose in life, it provides direction for you
Then:
You think.....what you think about is what you act like.....what you act like is who you become......who you become is the one single thing that determines the quality of your life.
It all starts with having a goal and thinking.
Two reasons why you still after all this time see this stuff from wilson. 1. Because someone, maybe your closest friend, is reading and accepting these stories in their reality. 2. Organizations pay the paper to put forward such stories for their own gain. One would think they oppose your favorite sport and want it to suffer. Maybe the paper took a chance because being in America, the game would be little known of in Australia, therefore with your supposed ignorance, such a story would be taken as truth. Wilson just hates league and they mucked up, blinded by her hate, and look like goofs because things didnt turn out how they thought.....but during it, they made league look bad. You choose which scenario. I know its the first. People pay money for this kind of thing. Opinion is bought in papers. All the hate coming at Wilson helps make her popular ----> you buying paper to read more of it.
Everyone's happy! Right?
Wrong....anyway again, i wrote a letter saying they didn't do their sums right. At least let them know you are ticked off. They work for you, because without you, THEY DONT EXIST.
26th January Rebbecca Wilson says attempting to expand rugby league is a futile exercise
Surely there are more financially sensible ways of making a dollar from a party other than pushing a line onto people, or creating a bias that simply is not representative of reality.
I don't know who pays who to write the things that Wilson has written about Rugby League, or how far up the line it reaches. But what I do know is this: the organization has just now recently crossed a line. No one was there to tell you or to celebrate with you your milestone. But it has come, and passed.
These false impressions writers give about topics may pay off in other areas. The war in Iraq and govt elections for example. Your paper is a business that generates advertising dollars. Congratulations. But you are in fact pushing away the rugby league audience.
I'd just like to let you in and be a fly on the wall of our thoughts. We know what happens at papers. We know about the business side of things, we all know about Murdoch and how he likes to push his views onto people. We know why Wilson writes these things. But what you dont know is we laugh at her as well as loathe her.
We are uninterested in it as much. We are not tired of these stories because of their content or the fact that they have been done 100 times before. We are tired of these stories because they take up the space of stories that may put out good vibes about rugby league.
The stories of this nature by Wilson are unattractive and repulse the long term reading and buying habits of readers. All human beings crave information But we dont need to buy your paper when we can go online. Once there, we dont even need to look in your paper. Our information comes from other free sites. I have not bought a paper for years. The only time I see the telegraph (after years of poor coverage) is when someone posts such a scathing and infactual story such as the one written by Wilson.
Is it not in your best interest to stop such stories. It may attract people in the short term. Maybe your your research was wrong. Such stories do nothing for the long term benifit of your paper. Print media is a sinking ship for its poor value. 100 pages of effort (buying it, sitting down to read it, getting rid of it, every day). You make it the poorer in our eyes for this kind of thing. Why will we come to you in the future given the sheer diversity of the internet and its web pages? We wont. And we will remember this kind of thing as the thing that drives us away from you.
Whoever is paying you to push this kind of thing is doing you a disservice on many fronts. I am sure your business is the weaker for it.
You reap what you sow. Thats a fact.
Sincerely,
****** *******
