I think the observer headline could be more proffessional

[Muadib]

Hysterical and unprofessional.

Heh, heh.

What is hysterical is your analysis.

Practical limitations to media neutrality include the inability of journalists to report all available stories and facts, and the requirement that selected facts be linked into a coherent narrative (Newton 1989). Since it is impossible to report everything, some bias is inevitable. Government influence, including overt and covert censorship, biases the media in some countries. Market forces that can result in a biased presentation include the ownership of the news source, the selection of staff, the preferences of an intended audience, or pressure from advertisers. Political affiliations arise from ideological positions of media owners and journalists. The space or air time available for reports, as well as deadlines needed to be met, can lead to incomplete and apparently biased stories.

Your hysterics would lead one to believe there is one biased media in Jamaica.

I know of none that are unbiased or immune from influence.

Discuss? You and Don1 been all over the forum attacking the Observer for their reporting.

One joker after seeing the first article stated, "In all fairness..... ..... this is an excellent article... sound investigative journalism."

"In all fairness?" What him mean by that? As a matter of fact, why him change course now? What happened is one fool lead many ... poppyshow Mosiah start the bickering .. blaming Butch ... suh PoppyShow Don 1 (opps .. I called his name ...my bad ...) had to follow.

You are really quite foolish as well as unsophisticated in your arguments.

Yes I found one article excellent (by Sandals Newsletter standards). So what?? I call it as I see it... I can give praise when it's due in my opinion.

However one article cannot determine my overall opinion of a newspaper.... their overall reporting on the issue is hysterical and unprofessional.

[Don1]

I disagree. Didn't Pinocchio's nose grow very long because of his lies?

I rest my case.

Oh, you don't attempt insults too, huh?

I don't know why I tried discussing this with you.

One assumes that you are able to read but....... understanding what you read seems to be your challenge.

How much more explanation of people's opposition to the tenor and excess of the Sandal Newsletter's/ Daily Tampon's campaign do you require? This has been exhaustively aired on this forum.

Time to just accept that some people dare to have different viewpoints and are not seduced as easily as others by the power of Butch Stewart.

Here you come with the attempted insults. My back broad suh come good.

I just accept it that some of you still have the mindset that people that are successful are "EVIL" .. who unuh idolize again?

Isn't it stange how unuh all over the Observer for reporting violations THAT DID EXIST .... but ... silent on the misleading article from the gleaner ... whey unuh claim is better than the Observer?

Mi see thru yuh long time Don1. The only people yuh fooling round here is yuh groupies ... Mosiah, Karl and the rest of the Poppy Show Brigade.

[Don1]

Suh if unuh can admit that there were violations ... what unuh a bicker bout then? Just want to tek a shot at Butch?

Do you run a story about the violations as HEADLINES every day for almost an entire week, backed up by your cartoonist and you writers?!?! Even today's editorial continues the onslaught.

You mean to tell me there is no other story, NONE!, since the Newsletter's creation how many years ago, that merited this sort of attention??!??

I don't believe this was just a good piece of investigative reporting. Obviously, you do, as is your right!

No doubt you have friends who agree with you, the paper is doing nothing wrong. I too have friends on the rock who agree with me that the paper has clearly gone over the top.

So, I guess we'll just continue to trace wi one anedda!

The Observer exposed what was going on that property ... guh overboard how? Apparently you looking fi only one set a story in the paper fi claim there is no other story being carried.

I am saying they should be balanced.. .why you have a problem with that? You dont think the observer is bias? here.. you acting like you dont know who ows sandals and who own the observer.. lazie if is wrong its wrong..

If its the truth, how is it biased? I hope you saw one of the titles about Whitehouse from the Observer.

[Lazie]

Lying is in your fibre, so I can excuse your saying that we overlooked the violations. Carry on!

Suh if unuh can admit that there were violations ... what unuh a bicker bout then? Just want to tek a shot at Butch?

Guests are free to make a choice between the small, intimate hotel and the megahotel. Not all Sandals hotels are small and intimate.

My next local vacation will be at a Riu, for sure!

RIU Hotels - Monstrosity

The RIU Mo Bay, and having seen RIU Ochor Rios, and the gigantic Bahia Principe just up the road from Breezes Runaway Bay, I can say that these hotels look like the monster hotels in Las Vegas.

At Breezes, everybody knows you, and in the seven times I have been there, I have become a legend.
