In these times when the media are lining up to beg at institutional windows, even to the detriment of their credibility, professionalism and dignity, The humiliating and contemptuous treatment they receive is relevant. As usual we will take football as an example since we started in sports journalism as a refuge of truth and although we have also fallen into the trap and discredit, there remains a small ember sheltered from the storm that does not stop.
Yesterday I told you about the vaudeville organized by Majorca to use the image of its shareholder Steve Kerr to pretend that he is not and does not exist. The Americans of ACQ Legacy Partners revealed themselves in strip the club they bought of everything that smells of Majorca. I think there is still a secretary in the office and because firing her is expensive. They took advantage of the holidays after the recent Olympic gold medal of the American basketball coach and coach of the San Francisco Warriors, Steve Kerr, denigrate local journalists send them an interview written by and from the clubwhose lamentable press service is motivated by personal sympathies and antipathy towards one’s own work or, rather, a recognized and recognizable laziness. While the state newspapers, sports and non-sports, were invited to debate with the entity’s star partner, those from home, those who stoically endured cars and carts all year round, received texts and photos, conveniently edited in pink, emanating from the office of someone who was once a journalist and now only retains the title. There, of course.
I have never been a corporatist. I am not like a dog that eats dog meat, I leave that to the press offices. Regardless, there is no greater contempt than not showing appreciation. On the contrary, it is obligatory to unmask those who, like politicians, use citizens, in this case fans, as an alibi for their activities. I said that in Son Moix all that glitters is not gold and for what does not glitter, a single excavator is not enough. And keep in mind that it does not matter to me, my wars ended years ago more by luck than by misfortune.
