Comments on: Terry’s terrible Tuesday: how the media botched a Tiger (non) sacking http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/05/19/terrys-terrible-tuesday-how-the-media-botched-a-tiger-non-sacking/ now with extra source Sun, 12 Feb 2012 08:14:27 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Marcus Seal http://www.crikey.com.au/2009/05/19/terrys-terrible-tuesday-how-the-media-botched-a-tiger-non-sacking/#comment-26913 Marcus Seal Wed, 20 May 2009 01:56:58 +0000 http://www.crikey.com.au/?p=59449#comment-26913 I'm no Tigers supporter but can the media just leave Terry alone and let him get on with the job. For any journos thinking of filing some inflammatory story perhaps check out 1997's Year Of The Dogs and have a look what the man did with that club in the face of incredible adversity. I think it's really poor form to treat anyone in Terry Wallace's position the way the Herald Sun did, not to mention the other outlets who are fuelling this "story". I bet Malthouse can't wait for the next few months. I’m no Tigers supporter but can the media just leave Terry alone and let him get on with the job.

If he was man about things he would just confess his stuff up and we'd all move on... the fact that he isn't man enough to do it leaves every story he writes from now on in clouded with uncertainty...

Take a small event (some players not turning up in the morning), and blow it out of proportion. If its true, the Hun looks like a genius. If not then people keep coming back to check on the 'developing story' which is actually a non-story. I know I got sucked into checking out the reports in the morning. Good article and good work capturing the variety of news banners. Seems like the usual slow-news day tactic.
