Quote: EHW "The BBC is a news organisation. What RL news has their been that the BBC should be covering?
It is upto the clubs and the RFL to generate content and news that the media find interesting enough to publish, not the other way round.'"
I dissagree and agree with some parts of your post.
This is the BBC Sport Rugby League page not the front page of the news site!
Day 6 now and just 5 and a bit days to the new seasons first match yet still the Raynor rape news takes precedence over any other Rugby League news.
I've seen plenty of newsworthy items over the last 6 days, many of which have been reported on SKY, Sporting Life or on the SL website. I don't know for fact that these stories have been circulated to the media but I'd be willing to bet they have.
I agree somewhat that Rugby League needs to work harder to promote itself via the media but I can imagine it gets a bit disillusioning when the stories you send in just get ignored.
