Caro wins media award

Who deos she write for? It must be the Aged, the smaller of the circulated Melbourne Papers?

Surely she hasn't won this for the work on FC because she gets shot down with inaccuracies every time she opens her mouth.

LOL or we just don't like her.

Gee sorry Everton.

Not all journo's are liked.

Are you serious with that crap?

Possibly the worst, most biased, one eyed post ever on this site.

Terrible.

Iceman, it's one thing to give it out, but you have to be prepared to take it.

Caro's a gun at her job. Like it or lump it.

Or don't read her stuff - then you can't complain about it.

Easy choice.

As I asked, who does she write for?

The smallest publication distribution?

Don't read it.

As for FC, gave up on it a while ago, she is a robot, but seems to back out of everything she calls. Don't watch it anymore. She is insipid on it when called.

If it hurts you to see people criticised in your profession, then you need to think hard about where you are heading.

Not everyone will like everyone in your job mate, trust me.

Hope you're in the same parallel universe when we win Saturday night.

Winmarvellous · Fri 19 Sep 2008 12:42am

Only know her from FC, as I live in the West. And she is CRAP. Totally biased towards her pet club (a true journalist doesn't let this shine though so blatantly), and obviously has her agendas (WC for one). Not a student of the game, but rather the politics behind it, and tries to make the "fenale voice" ie. mums etc. sound as one-eyed as her, when I know plenty who love hard and tough footy just as much as I do.

PS. Just don't mention Terry Wallace.

LOL actually is up there with the great joffaboy's racist calls throughout the year. Criticise one of our blokes with a remote tan (oopps I have Italian background in mine) and you get called racist.

Equally as sad.

FFS everton there are male journo's I don't like too. Can't stand Hutchy, can't stand Huddo. Guess I'm sexist.

Clearly you are aligned with Caro so you defend her.

Agendas? Pfffft FFS never seen so many as on here.

My profession gets a pasting every second day in the press. It's probably not as exciting as being a journo or an accountant or a window-dresser, but it cops criticisim.

I deal with it, I don't immediately defend either side just because I'm part of it.

I look at it objectively.

If people in my job stuff up, I'll at least discuss it here, you ask AOK and others on the General Forum.

For me, Caro is a dud. You like her, your call. I think she's terrible.

I don't read her columns, haven't since I gave up the Age sponsorship because it is easily the worst paper in Victoria.

(Backed up by sales)

And I can't stand her on FC.

So I guess I am sexist, racist, footballist, journalist?

That is one of this forum's great overreactions to a fairly humourous and light retort. I never mentioned you in the post, or anyone else for that matter. It was a light-hearted jibe at those who generically bag her.

I've never met Caroline Wilson. I don't think we'll ever come into contact. (Unless the producers of FC happen to like my posting style & want me to replace Glenn Archer...or she gets into advertising...?)

I think you have taken it personally because I posted directly under you. Well, no, I pressed reply after reading the first page.

Obviously you're a bit worked up mate. Chill out.

Iceman234 · Post: # 647813Post **Iceman234** » Fri 19 Sep 2008 1:11am

No chilling necessary. Very relaxed here these days.

I just aligned it to one of the silliest comments I'd seen on this site this year.

Your defence of your fellow journo, well.... you'll grow into the role I'm sure.

Not all of every profession is without criticism.

You will accept it as you grow.

It'll come with age evertonfc.

And unfortunately I think he was serious too.

LOL except for your first post.

having a go at anyone who dare slight Caro, as an Internet hero.

Classic. I love it!

I'm off to bed. I'll have to start a blog or something in the meantime, eh?

Thank f*** for that, and not a year subscriptrion to The Aged.

I'll take Heineken from your job, Extra Dry may cost too much, I understand what it's like when the full wage isn't coming in.....

If only you knew the mark-up on Heiny's here compared to Europe...but they're *imported*, hence the boost over ED & James Squire (a much better beer).

Meh. Who am I kidding. All great beers

Sorry mate, just got back from a country where Heine's were 8 euro's per slab. OMG why did I come back?

#35 that's why.....

Some people allow her to hide behind the fact she is a women and seem to stick up for this fact and this fact only. Talk about reverse sexism.

Its the grandiose statements she makes about peoples careers and reputations for example (ask Jason Akermanis) and the fact that she , along with Patrick Shite from the Australian , who put their egos first on an issue by playing the 'i told ya so line' on so many and varied an issue. Arm chair know alls I call 'em !!! Worse than Joffaboy the lot of 'em.

talk about a hate filled drunken mysognist.

This alocholic takes the cake (and the scotch, and the gin, and the larger).

Woman hater. No wonder all the gay references all the time.

Dont be so closetted Kunny, come out, you know you want to.

We wont judge on your prefered lifestyle.

just stop with the woman hatered. It is most unpleasant.

No different to being a contributor and professing to "know all" on this forum Kenny!!!!!!

Jealousy is a curse - she gets paid to do what we would all love to do - except she is far FAR more accurate than any of us will ever be!

SENsei · Post: # 648282Post **SENsei** » Fri 19 Sep 2008 5:36pm

I also like Caro. Like reading her columns on realfooty.com.au. She gets most of the inside word.

In fact, I don't mind most journos.

Except Patrick Smith. Cannot stomach him at all either in print or on SEN.

ozrulestrace · Fri 19 Sep 2008 6:19pm

Has no acknowledged that Caro had the guts to challenge Hutchy about Alan Didak's planned appearance on the "Footy Show" to apologise to Collingwood fans?
He denied it, and tried to turn it into a personal attack on her.
Well, she was right about Didak appearing on Channel Eddie, and for all his denials Hutchy looks an even bigger idiot.
