Hull Daily Mail

Terribly misleading headline in the HDM, saying Fleetwoods owner taking a swipe at Hull City continueing the bad blood between the 2 clubs. But, when you read the article he was just saying the likes of Fleetwood, Hull City, Grimsby etc are in danger of going to the wall without government assistance and a rescue package.

 

Just read it John
Terrible journalism

 

Like you and Chazz I've just read that article,it's just dreadful! Doesn't anybody edit local news these days?

 

It's just click-bait journalism - it's the future don't ya know?

 

I stupidly read it. I should have ignored it because it was in the HDM. It's complete rubbish. How can they suggest he was taking a swipe at City? If so, he clearly wants a fight with all the other teams who were mentioned. What's worse is that he is probably right. Any club can go to the wall. We are not immune.

 

We aren't immune, but we are without a shadow of a doubt in a better position then probably 95% of other clubs

 

Apparently he was also having a go at himself as he mentioned Fleetwood in the list of clubs.
The HDM has won awards. Makes you wonder what the ones lower down the list are like.

 

He's got two hands. He can fight himself.

 

Most local newspapers are the same, often literally.

Once googled a local news story and it turned up on virtually every town and cities local paper, here's why.

This Cod Army...how many is in it?

I wouldn't fancy their chances against a 1985 pre match Silver Cod

 

You're all making good points but the only thing I'm going to remember from this thread is DMD talking about donkey genitalia with a quizzical farmer.

 

The appalling click-bait journalism of the HDM is finally starting to be challenged by the following twitter accounts @nohateintheHDM backed by @hullisthis and councillor @aneesa_akbar.

 

The guy behind @hullisthis is a definitely one of the good guys.

 

I managed to have a look and first post I saw said this
Write about us and for us, but never against us. If you do that, you’ll be doing Hull an excellent service, and not sinking to the despicable depths of that other lot we were once proud of in this city.


easy isn’t it

 

From what I've seen, he's no tame mouthpiece, and will be critical where it's needed, but only to highlight an issue that needs more thought or to offer a wider viewpoint, and he does it in a constructive way, rather than simply to create a fog of argument.

 

I also think Barry Cooper, the new City correspondent, is doing a grand job. Plenty of stories, seems to call the games right, and generally a good egg.

 

HDM predictably reporting on empty shelves in supermarkets thus fuelling panic buying in a pandemic when most people aren't even stocking up because they can't hold family gatherings anyway.

 

Twitter calling them out as the empty supermarket shelves pictured are in Wales.

Utter ****s.

 

Does Wales have supermarkets?
