I Can’t Stand TV Journalists Like This !
I was watching the Channel 7 Sports Report tonight and there was a stroy on Ben Cousins likely return to AFL Football and how the Eagles Cheif Executive Trevor Nisbett declared that Cousins was not welcome back at the West Coast Eagles, despite a former club chairman suggesting that if Cousins is to play again it should be in Perth where his friends and family are. Murray McHenry, the former chariman wrote a letter to the AFL outlining his thoughts.
Anyway the footage was of Cousins sitting at a Cafe or something like that reading the paper with a female minding his own business and this Channel 7 reporter started to try and get an interview and when Cousins noticed the cameras he up and left, with the reporter in hot pursuit. This is a disgrace ! I know this has been said before and it will probably be said again but why can’t they just let these people have some sort of normality? At the end of the day they are just football players, it is not like they are George Clooney or Barack Obamah now are they.

What is wrong, with chanel seven’s so called news team. They sould be ashamed of them selves,they are constently bashing Ben Cousins, for no good reason, and they drone on none stop it’s pethetic.
I wonder how there team would stand up under such close scrutiny.
I agree there should be some balance there. Because of their public profiles, footballers should be available to talk to the press, but fronting them when they are relaxing with friend/s and chasing them is rude and stupid.
