forlanssister 3,114 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Journalists usually understand how to make up a story out of "next to nothing" and sell it to their editors and the audience. Hence, they understand quite a lot of things, not least those circling within their heads. And what circles within their heads is - more often than not these days - not exactly true or based on fact. I generally assume that no such motives drives genuine supporters of the club. Understands is merely a caveat it's being used in this instance for exactly the same reasons newspapers use it, as cover your arse. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_2010 0 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 The devil is in the deatail. like the spelling? (sorry, no offence, just found the misspelling of detail ironic given the context ) I still cannot fathom how the SPL have any claim on Rangers media rights?! Will be great news to have it resolved, but I do fear at what cost... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His, not mine. BTW, ... the word is: SPL have bought the rights off the SFL - can now sell complete package. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

calscot 0 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Understands is merely a caveat it's being used in this instance for exactly the same reasons newspapers use it, as cover your arse. I think the point is that there is a legitimate use to cover your arse in case you end up getting the wrong end of the stick, compared to completely making up a story that has a tenuous relationship to the truth to further your agenda - be it to disparage a party or to sell newspapers, and using it as a get out clause. Which is which and to what degree is subjective, but the distinction is worth pointing out. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 makes sense for the SPL. what would be really nice is if no one bought them from the SPL but we still got the cash. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinker 887 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Understands is merely a caveat it's being used in this instance for exactly the same reasons newspapers use it, as cover your arse. Yeah, but there's a difference between someone trying to pass on information for no personal gain (as in the VBs' statement) and a journalist using "understands" to present unsubstantiated evidence in order to sensationalise a story. Either the VBs are right or they're wrong in what they understand. They're not trying to insinuate anything or alter anyone's opinion. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
