So who is worse ?

[OVP]

Rebecca Wilson or Danny Weidler.

 

[Charlie124]

Rebecca Wilson - everything she writes/says about the game is negative.

Danny Weidler - everything he writes/says about the game is inaccurate.


So id have to go with Beccy on this one.

 

[aqua_duck]

danny does come up with a few scoops once every blue moon, whilst wilson's knowledge of the game is limited to say the least, all she does is run her agendas and bag out brian smith or malcolm noad

 

[Timmah]

Wilson. Weidler attempts to be an investigative journalist... Wilson is just a hack with a column.

Wilson's last straw was her pathetic diatribe on Elka Graham last week on Today Tonight.

Mogsheen Jadwat.

 

[Lockyer4President!]

The first three replies have said it all tbh.

 

[Tom Shines]

What about the fourth?

 

[adamkungl]

Hmm depends what you're talking about. Weidler's a worse journalist, as he actually claims to be reporting news. Bec is a hack who somehow ended writing sport instead of gossip stories about Tom Cruise in the back of MX

 

[Packy]

Wilson by a mile.

Weidler looks like he might have played a game at some stage.
Wilson looks like she was run over by a train at some stage.

 

[Mr. Fahrenheit]

first 3 responses for mine.

Beccy is to the news industry like Tasmania is to Australia. The Hemroid hanging out at the bottom.


Sorry Tassie, im just kidding.

Wilson's last straw was her pathetic diatribe on Elka Graham last week on Today Tonight.

I didn't see Today Tonight, but I was unfortunate enough to read her column about it.

She has the hide to come out and say that she doesn't believe Elka Graham, and that it's all just attention seeking rubbish!! On what grounds is she basing this? Disgraceful, disgraceful attack on a person's character.

Rebecca Wilson is the worst hack to ever be pushed upon the public. She's got no idea whatsoever. I just hope that Willie Mason gets into some controversy involving her next year, I want to see one of the players truly speak their mind about her.

Up until the Elka Graham attack the worst thing I saw from her was her column in the Telegraph's Christmas/End of year round-up. When everyone else was talking up the good things about the year, her highlights contained 3 anti Sun-Herald/SMH comments, and 1 more direct attack at Phil Gould.

Never has there been a nastier, more agenda-driven piece of ignorant trash then Rebecca Wilson.

As for Today Tonight - lol. I've never watched it, but they are constantly lampooned on The Chaser, and from what I've seen I'll never watch that show for a second. Garbage.

 

[smeghead]

Wilson is the bigger git. But the more she talks on other sports the more credibility she loses.

Weidler for mine is the more dangerous of the two for the game as he has been presented as "one of the boys" through the footy show.

Both pale in comparisson to that waste of a carrier wave in Channel 7

 

[_Johnsy]

Wilson by a country mile. This hags name is enough to make me want to vomit, such is my disdain for her "work".

Wilson was enough to stop me buying the Tele, I will not ever buy it again while she "writes for it".

Danny well he is much like an ingrown hair, annoying, slightly painfull and you can function normally with it. Wilson I liken to a tooth ache, at the time there is nothing worse and want it gone, like 6 hours ago.

 

[Join The Bandwagon]

i like danny weidler

 

[Godz Illa]

The headline to her Elka Graham story was a concise description of her entire media career.

Attention-seeker and under-achiever.

 

[The Preacher]

I think replies #2 and #5 have it all parcelled up.

 

[HevyDevy]

I think all replies on this thread are valid.

The thing that bugs me most about Weidler is how he always writes:

"Two weeks ago I broke this story ..." or "I spoke to (insert name) exclusively this week and he told me "

Such egotistical rubbish, especially when half the time the story was broken by someone else midweek anyway.

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

I think they would make a great investigative team. Especially if they were posted to somewhere like the Sun.

Weidler would say something like - "The big story coming out of the Sun this week is that it's not actually a star, but rather a very warm planet!" (He couldn't even get that right)

And Rebecca Wilson's next headline would read - "Is the Sun really that hot or is it just overated? I'm going to find out."

Look Wiedler atleast can get you interviews (e.g nathan Merritt), he can get you scoops (e.g craig gower), and he has less of an agenda, he's just an egotistical moron. Wilson will never get you a scoop, never get you an interview sjhe just gives her 2 cents worth to everything, and for some reason people listen/read to her stuff when there is no factual base behind it what so ever.

I liken wilson to smoking, people know its bad for you but they still do it, in wilson's case, people know its agenda driven rubbish that'll lower your IQ if you read it but they still do
