Re: Decent Journalism

It is very easy to have a pre-concieved notion on a player or team or even a tactic. What is clear is that these so called journo's allow their preconception to cloud their objectivity. As fans we watch matches from a different perspective. A player who was crap in the previous game is not "prejudiced" in our assessment of him for the current match. How often do you hear fans, whilst watching a match, critisize player x who happens to be having a "bad game". Very rarely will you get the same comment being made game in and game out. (except in the case of Salif - he he). However with a journo he set his sail in a particular direction and almost trys to "shift reality" to suite his opinion on a player, tactic, manager etc.. shame..
