onefootwillie 1,518 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Great statement, well put together. I do not buy this paper or go on to its web site. All Rangers supporters should just give this publication a big miss Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eejay the dj 31,964 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Said it years ago and was shouted down for being paranoid The place like so many in this Country is riddled with haters Finally ,finally , the club has woken up to this showers of beggar apologists That alone gives me hope Any consiluatory tone has to be binned as it does not work with these bastards . Like the BBC Scotland .Scum fucks .They are pushing a clear and one sided agenda We can't show any sign of weakness or acceptance that some may be good or ok They are all in it together The Craigy bouy swans of this world are out and out hating vermin .Dressed up as an impartial reporter .We know they don't intend to change However it's the Gary Ralstons of this world that really make me fucking sick . I would gladly stand by and watch if weak fuckers like these took a tanking from some wee girls Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 1,114 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Could Rangers Media ban any Daily Record articles appearing on the site ? Or would one person C&P'ing articles for the site actually mean less clicks for the DR ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackrfc95 4,255 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Fuck this trying to repair relationships pish, its clear every single element of Scottish football wants us to fall. 'No one likes us, we don't care' - the board along with all of our support should embrace that attitude. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was despite running calls for title stripping from Aberdeen, Dundee Utd and Celtic fans’ groups both prior to and following our statement. Unfortunately this is not the first time the Daily Record has failed to treat Rangers and its supporters in an equivalent manner to how it has treated others. Last year Club 1872 polled members on action following a completely fabricated story by Record journalist, Jane Hamilton about Rangers fans causing disruption at the Cup Final. This prompted an apology and IPSO judgement against the paper. Rangers and Club 1872 have met with Daily Record Editor, Murray Foote on several occasions and attempted to resolve the ongoing issues with a number of Daily Record staff who appear unable to put their own feelings for our club to one side. Despite these efforts – and reassurances that more balance would be achieved – the situation has worsened. The Daily Record has a number of fair and competent journalists but the senior management of the paper seem to be completely unable or unwilling to control a handful of their staff, who go out of their way to produce skewed and at times completely false coverage of our club. There are currently three people paid by the Daily Record – one in a senior editorial role – who have made overtly sectarian comments about Rangers fans. This has been condoned and they continue to be in a position to influence the output of the newspaper on matters regarding our club. Club 1872, and in our opinion Rangers, have now done all we can in terms of raising these issues and seeking a resolution with Murray Foote. We do not believe there is any genuine wish from his side to remedy the situation. Unlike BBC Scotland, which has a duty to be impartial, the Daily Record is entirely free to push a one sided agenda if it so wishes. There is no duty to be impartial or even handed. There is a duty to be accurate however, and Club 1872 is currently in the process of examining several recent articles to see if there have been further breaches of IPSO guidelines. Club 1872 understands that the press has a role to play in holding Rangers, its directors and supporters to account. They did so with regard to the previous regime at the club but there is a difference between holding to account and pursuing a baseless agenda to attack and diminish. Particularly when that agenda slavishly follows the promptings of those whose commitment to sporting integrity extends no further than using the words to attack those they dislike. Just as we believe the Daily Record has made its choice – so too can Rangers supporters. We can choose not to buy the Daily Record. We can choose not to click links to Daily Record stories online. We can choose not to share those links and stories on our social media networks and forums. In summary, we can treat the newspaper and the management who are running it into the ground with exactly the same level of contempt they show to Rangers and Rangers supporters on a weekly basis. If Rangers supporters continue to choose to spend their cash or read news online via the Daily Record website then it is unlikely anything will change. If we do not, then perhaps those running it will finally realise that we will no longer accept anything other than fair and balanced coverage of our club. It’s time to change the Record.

Sparkle 53,253 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I haven't bought, read or clicked anything from this rhag for years. There's is absolutely nothing meaningful it has to say that I can't read about elsewhere first (they copy other msm articles and claim them as 'exclusive' and most of what it does have to say I don't need to know anyway.

Reality is that if the text isn't C&P'd then you would have a lot of curious Bears clicking the DR link. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only reduce the clicks and paper buying by ignoring them, they'll still be damaging is in the eyes of the rest of the country, especially if it goes without challenge. Only way you can really deal with them is to continually challenge falsehoods and bias. Someone needs to monitor...bring it here by all means through one c&p. That reduces the hits at least, but it needs to be common across all Rangers platforms. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
