do our trade pubs need to me more fan friendly? surley they could have put this one on the 3rd page.. you have the three most identifyable horses/trainers in the last 6 months looking like crooks.. .. not that they arent ..but.. drf had a chance to bust balls and brought that leg from wayback ...

This is why the 'media' is in a lose-lose position. They report what's going on--and because it's a negative story-- you get some people who are upset that they "led with it."... If the DRF had put this story on page 3, there would be just as many people who'd be pissed that they 'buried it.'

Ultimately, they just have to report and lead with the big stories, if they start worrying about who they'll upset, they'll start losing their integrity (assuming they have any ).
