Lets get one thing straight here, the Beckhams have used the media for publicity since they got married. I dont care for either them or their private life but it is unrealistic to think that the things that DB has gotten up to would not make the news. Whether we like it or not some people want to hear gossip and speculation, however true or untrue, on the back and front pages of the papers.
I dont buy any papers, i do agree that they print what they like [tabloids mostly], half truths and innuendo as i was on the receiving end myself once. I cant speak for anyone else, but i would like more mature coverage and analysis of sporting events meaning i dont just want to know what happened and who was to blame, but why things happened. It was refreshing to see referee mark halsey explain his decisions even though i disagreed with his reasoning and some of his decisions.
If anyone is into american sports they will understand what i mean, they analyse everything but at least you get more understanding. One last point, i missed all the coverage of David James in the papers, was it really that personal? He is a crap keeper but he would not deserve that type of treatment, no one does. |
