Had a great chat

As for Antonio the wheely-bin, he is deafeing in his silence about whether he thinks it is appropriate that the Telecrap finds Carney's drinking more deplorable and newsworthy than someone hitting his girlfriend and mother of his child TWICE??

Twice?
That's what reported. Historically it would be a common thing, me thinks

Twice as in it has happened twice in the last 12 months. He was charged after Mad Monday last year with the same offence but it was dropped I think because his partner didn't go through with it. May be wrong on that though.

Absolutely spot on!
There is no need for the colour of the skin to be raised. Lui is scum - plain and simple. I would never refer to the colour of anyone's skin no matter what they've done. He is disgusting, revolting, foul scum for hitting a woman TWICE in 12 months. The colour of his skin is neither here nor there from my point of view. And unfortunately when people revert to racist descriptions it does deflect from the issue at heart - which is he is SCUM!

Lui's actions, if proven, are reprehensible, and of course they are significantly worse than Carney having another bender. The coverage each will attain in the news though is dependent on other factors. Carney has 50 times the profile Lui has. Every media outlet in the country, not just News Ltd, would have given Carney significantly more coverage than Lui. That's because he's more well known, and as such more people are interested. If they want to devote more column cm to Carney that's their business, and who really gives a fark? No-one does, apart from the barking mad flips who frequent this joint. If it worries you that much, sit at home all day like the oldies and pump out letters to all the papers, and all the TV networks, and all the radio stations, and tell them how upset about it you are.

What can't be argued though, is that to refer to someone in the way PG did, is also reprehensible.

Sorry, should have explained myself better.
Historically if the police are involved it is usually after a string of violent incidents.
This guy has a problem & obviously thinks it is ok/normal to beat on your partner.
NO, IT'S NOT!
And the big problem for police is that it takes so long to get to the courts. In that time the creep has sweet talked his girl around to telling a different story as to what actually happened. Cops usually won't proceed unless they have the full co-operation from the victim.

That is the biggest load of BS i've read on the issue..

There is no justifying the silence on the Lui issue..

And your deflections & excuses only make you seem more pathetic..If that is possible..

No it doesn't worry me that much. I just find the hypocrisy very frustrating but typical of the sesnationalist sections of the media. You are right, Carney is better known and therefore they know they will sell more papers by having him and his acts of stupidy all over the pages of their papers / TV shows / radio broadcasts etc. It doesn't make it right though and me complaining about it will mean nothing when people will still buy the paper. Nor does it make it right that Lui, who has allegedly committed a serious crime TWICE barely rates a mention.
And as I said I do not and will never tolerate racism or racist language.

Crap! The SMH didn't order reporters and photographers to follow Carney & Myles around after their indiscretion and publicise the
fact they engaged in retail therapy, caught a flick, followed by how many coffees that had etc...That's stalking, trivial and above all
trashy.
IMO, the SMH reports the details without over-sensationalising or overdoing the story.
Wheelie, you should be ashamed being associated with News Ltd, moreso since the phone tapping scandal .

Yep. My first thought when I saw it breaking.

Agree totally.

I know it is Horrie

No mate, that's exactly what you're doing

Media outlets basing allocated coverage of incidents partly on profile of subject involved - hardly "inexcusable"

Racism - absolutely inexcusable

But I realise that you can't see that

This incident didn't receive as much coverage as Carney either

The Lui case should've recieved 5 times the media cm that silly Carney got for being an immature fool..As should Cherringtons..

If you can't see that then you are more mentally deficient than i thought..

Not that i expect anything less from a News Ltd lackey..

News of the World Teabags?..

Your attack on Jman is the actions of a desperate fool..One looking to deflect from the pathetic actions of its employer..

As for the "mate" stuff..I hope you were being ironic..

Lui hasn't been convicted yet.

Look what happened in the Inglis case.

The headlines read something like;

"LOWEST ACT"

"INGLIS ARRESTED FOR HITTING A WOMAN" [or GIRLFRIEND]

...then the truth was revealed at his trial.


http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/gre...-1225852685515

He said he had pushed her out of agitation after she "got in his face".

Girlfriend puts new slant on Inglis row

THE girlfriend of National Rugby League and Melbourne Storm superstar Greg Inglis has revealed new information to police that may ultimately clear him of assaulting her.

Sally Robinson yesterday handed investigators a lengthy statement that provides a different version of events to the one she had previously given.

The signed statement is believed to reveal specific information about what triggered the altercation. It is understood to refer to Inglis trying to disarm Ms Robinson while she was in the process of self-harm.

#####

I could be wrong, but I seem to remember that a knife was mentioned in that case.

I'm not saying Lui is innocent, but maybe the print media learnt a lesson from the Inglis case.

Lui is a REPEAT OFFENDER..

The 2 cases have barely any similarities..

Inglis argued from day 1 he was trying to stop his missus hurting herself..

Gee you post some irrelevant garbage..
