Default All out attack on the media

SOMEBODY has to lead the charge. So why not us? When you think about it, how has the media avoided all the facts & stories of cheating in the NFL? Why do they choose NOT to write about these facts? Why are they purposefully TRYING to paint the Patriots as Cheaters when cheating has been part of the game for decades?

Why, why, why....do so many in the media seem like they are trying to take the Patriots down? I am so F***ING sick & tired of this farce. Isn't there a Patsfan.com member who has a contact in the media who can tell us once & for all why the media has chosen to report on the Patriots rule violations and not written one iota about how widespread all of this has been?

Why are they investigating an ***** like Walsh and not investigating the facts behind espionage in the NFL? If there is a purposeful effort to destroy BB & the Patriots as they are today, that MUST be a conspiracy. And here we sit doing nothing about it. Shame on us!

Can someone please suggest a way to FORCE the media to do this? I for one am ready & willing for an all out attack on the media. We just need someone to help us focus & organize our efforts.

I would donate $$ to such a cause if that is what is necessary.

Sign me up......

I'll do whatever to send a message from the fans of New England......tell the truth guys, ask all the questions and report the facts.

Isn't that what a reporter is supposed to do? Yet they coninue on and on with a Patriot smear campaign, for reasons that may be as simple as they do not like BB.

Well, in New Englad - we LOVE having this guy as our coach and appreciate all he has done so far and the successes that will surely follow.

Unfortunately, I think we need someone with some media savvy to show us the way. I know a bunch of emails from Patriots fans isn't going to sway anyone...even if we are right.

Couldn't we maybe sway the entire Boston Globe staff to step up & speak out? We just don't have the platform to be heard and we know people would just call us homers.

I HAVE been waging a one man war on these moronic media hacks....my e-mail box is loaded with "thank you for your input" replies. They're so polite after you savage them, actually quite happy they drew any response at all.

At least you're making an effort. But that's why we need a leader or spokesperson. I don't know diddly about the ins & outs of the media. We need a friend with some clout.

It would be great to take it to the media, but somehow I think it would be twisted or ignored. Even Reiss' pieces get spun into some anti-patriots drivel once espn gets a hand on it. I'm all for this cause tho...hopefully there is someone with some say or who has a strong suggestion to see this through. I too will do whatever I can to back it up....

Agreed 100%.....I know there are posters here that are current or former media folk or some that would be able to offer their expertise in many ways. Step up guys and help advise as to how we go about things.

Surely, there has to be a lot of people that seek the truth with no BS. Cut through those with hidden Comcast agenda's, no weirdo's from years ago looking for a quick payday, no writers with axes to grind because they are not happy with the way BB answers them, no jealous members of losing organizations........just a way to help us all find that truth.

Organize us please, there must be ways that we can send a few messages that are clear & concise, that cry out for fairness & honesty, these would be messages from real fans of the Patriots & the NFL, that would be heard as meaningful, loud and clear seeking the truth.

That individual would have to be someone that could handle a lot of egg in the face if Spygate goes as deep as some expect. It's bad enough each Pats fan has to deal with their team being called a cheater because of a few minutes of game film...but if there is some credibility to the Walsh story, it could get even uglier. Yes the Patriots are taking a hit, but lets be honest...it is Bill's fault this happened. He needs to confront the media, not any of us. I love the Pats and I constantly defend the organization and their achievements...but c'mon, Bill needs to put this to bed not us.
