Quote Michigan red="Michigan red"Feel free to use my comments from my first post on this thread.
Would it not have been prudent for whoever decided to use our comments to ask on here? I for one (and at least one other person quoted) am not happy this has been done, personally to be associated with a publication like the MEN is rather distasteful.'"
The Manchester Evening News regularly use online social websites to source comments. There have been high profile local murders and deaths, one who I knew personally, and 'journalists' obtained material such as photographs and individual comments from their facebook pages. This is distasteful in my opinion.
In this instance however its somewhat more trivial. Rugby fans using random usernames commenting on their teams. At least the paper is giving us plenty of coverage. Try following Swinton, they rarely get a mention and even got ignored by the Salford Advertiser a couple of weeks ago.
