"In other news on what was a shitty day for us publicly, we also appear to be the only team in the country that didn't send our best wishes out to Hull & Mason... i'm aware it's only Social Media but it's the done thing nowadays so was a shame to not see us do that, it only takes a second! "

Doesn't surprise me at all.

He plays for Burnley - what's that got to do with Leicester?

No it was nothing to do with Burnley or a joke Joe.
More to do with Barton being seen as a monster, a thug etc, and even he wished Mason and his family well.
Yet it slips the mind of those likeable, lovable champions Leicester

Newspapers have the freedom to behave in a way that would see most people prosecuted for doing the same on social media. Lies, which hunts, invasion of privacy, indecency....but its all ok.

Some of their behaviour is simply harrassment and stalking, but they get a pass.

Im shocked more famous people dont take them to the cleaners.

I'd say they've actually reigned it in since the phone hacking scandal. The fucking vipers den that existed before: the use of private investigators that were involved in drug distribution, child pornography, planting of evidence.... massive police corruption.

The Leveson inquiry cost them millions in damages and in loss of readership, add to that dwindling distribution numbers due to massive changes in the way that people consume their media. The tabloids are on the ropes and need to do all they can to hold on to their readership.

Unfortunately similar can be said of the state of the educated press whether you read centre right or left. Newspapers are going the way of the dinosaurs.

The worry is that media is being pushed out to the internet where there is even LESS regulation and an ever growing trend to promote "Fake News" (and not in a ridiculous Trump sense of the phrase).

We all know at least one idiot on facebook who shares absolute nonsense stories without stopping to consider their validity or authenticity.

I dunno, They may have had smaller circulation in the first place but The Guardian's and Independents readership has halved in the last ten years. It's why they're pleading for donations on their website every day.

I haven't bought a physical newspaper in years.
 
If they want sales, they should stop printing "news" they find on facebook, football forums, reddit and youtube. Everyone has seen it for free already.

The most ridiculous headline Ive read recently was

YOUNG BOY CLIMBS ON RAILWAY TRACK TO DO THE "DAB" DANCE MOVE PREMIER LEAGUE FOOTBALLERS ARE USING

Chelsea trio Gary Cahill, John Terry and Steve Holland went to visit Ryan Mason in hospital
SIMON JOHNSON Monday 23 January 2017 15:42 BST

Gary Cahill went to visit Ryan Mason at St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington last night after their accidental clash of heads left the Hull midfielder with a fractured skull.

The two players collided in the 12th minute of Chelsea’s 2-0 win over Hull yesterday and while Cahill was deemed fit to continue, Mason was carried off on a stretcher after a stoppage of more than eight minutes.

The Chelsea defender went to the hospital in west London shortly after the final whistle, along with Chelsea captain John Terry and assistant manager Steve Holland.

The Chelsea trio didn’t get to see Mason as he was still in surgery, but they spent time with Mason’s parents, who had attended the game at Stamford Bridge.

Cahill went on to play the full game and scored Chelsea’s second goal with nine minutes remaining.

There have been question marks in some quarters over why Cahill stayed on the pitch himself, especially after coach Antonio Conte admitted: “After the first half, it wasn’t really good with Gary, but we decided to continue with him.”

However, it is believed Conte was referring to the 31-year-old’s emotional state after having heard about the seriousness of Mason’s injury.

Unlike Mason, Cahill sat up after the collision in just over a minute, and was back on his feet walking to the touchline within two minutes.

He had been examined by two members of Chelsea’s medical team and was deemed fine to continue.

Chelsea were criticised in 2014 when keeper Thibaut Courtois played on for 13 minutes after being looked at by then doctor Eva Carneiro, despite suffering a head injury in a collision with Woolwich striker Alexis Sanchez. He was then taken off and later diagnosed with concussion. FIFA medical chief Michel D’Hooghe said that Chelsea had acted correctly in dealing with Courtois.

Tottenham lead tributes as former clubs wish Ryan Mason full recovery
New Premier League rules on head injuries were brought in at the start of the 2014-15 campaign, stating that any player suffering a head injury must leave the pitch and that the club doctor — not the team manager or coaches — must decide if the player is capable of continuing.

However, Chelsea insist that the correct medical procedures were adhered too in Cahill’s case and he was fit to continue the game. Cahill, along with the rest of the Chelsea players, has been given the day off today by Conte, which was already planned. The centre-half is understood to still be upset by what’s happened and the club will provide any support he requires to cope with the situation.

Speaking after the final whistle, Cahill said: “It was a massive impact. I wish him all the best and I hope there is no serious injury.”

In a statement last night Hull said: “The club can confirm that Ryan Mason sustained a skull fracture. Ryan is in a stable condition and is expected to remain in hospital for the next few days. Everyone at the club would like to express their thanks for the excellent and swift care given to Ryan by the Accident and Emergency department and Neurosurgery Unit.”
