I agree that its a bit of a dry subject, but unfortunately it may be that at some point in the future it becomes a very important issue, and what is happening here may determine how much local media outlets stand up to the future Diamandis or Jeds who run this club.
I hope the nodding symbol means that Sam is working with his colleagues so that we can talk more about the footie again!!
Eh? I can't remember the Adver crusading against the greasy Greek, or Jed. Maybe I'm mistaken? |

They didn't "crusade" against Diamandis. But they did a damn good job of reporting on the whole sorry saga and letting people make up their own minds. The point sheldon is making, as I did the other day, is if the club now have the whip hand over media outlets, and that means the media are intimidated away from reporting negative news by this kind of ban/un-invitation/whatever, then that's not necessarily a healthy thing for us or the club if a Jed or similar crops up again in the future. |

What's stopping the adver from reporting negative news when they are 'banned' anyway?

The club haven't, and couldn't, put a gagging order on the Adver - they can still write and publish STFC-related stories

Exactly. A supposed 'crusade' against Diamandis by the Adver has been mentioned, yet were the adver not banned at that time as well? |

Andy Cryer was very good in asking the questions that Diamandis hated to answer. Much more effective than Ritson who preceded him. |

Nothing, but it's clearly a punishment for reporting news the club would rather not have reported on. As such, the intended effect is, clearly, to deter the Adver, and any other news outlets who might consider doing so, from reporting news the club would rather not have reported on. |

No. And the person who mentioned the word "crusade" did so in saying he didn't remember them doing one. What they did do, was be very effective at simply reporting what was going on, even if it was perceived as "negative" by the club who would rather they hadn't done so, as it shone a wider light on the shambles at the time. |

Are we allowed to mentioned that when the Adver were taken in by Jed that Sam was at the paper? He does seem sainted by some. |

Other outlets have reported on the same things that the adver have, they've not been 'banned'. I think he just doesn't like them, Paul. They're not exactly in everybody's good books right now are they? |

In fairness there was a large percentage taken in by lovable Jed and geezerish charms. |
