What do you do if you have no credibility. Just get togethor in little co-ops, and quote eachother in your articles, to promote each others work.
Nothing screams "legitimacy" than being cited. So when I was sent this link, by a reader, I had to chuckle.
The actual Mayweather story is boring. I've read it. He did little more than accuse Pacquiao again, of using steroids, as well as accuse the Wild Card gym of juicing other guys.
So what's this story. Well, it's Examiner.com's Dennis Guillermos analysis, which was wrong, and heavily biased, posted as the actual news. The author didn't consider it neccesary to quote Mayweather, as in all honesty, it actually asks a lot of questions about Pacquiao, that I suspect the author didn't want to bring up.
So this is how it works.
A hugely biased, amateur Filipino writer, takes a story, and twists it, in an attempt to fit his own agenda, and mislead readers. Another Pacquiao writer, then re-prints the analysis, as the actual news, on the basis that he agrees with it, and wants to push the false rumour further, to more people.
The end result. You've got a lot of readers, who have been denied the right to read the actual story, and who have only got the heavily biased pro-pacquiao analysis.
Keep it coming folks. These e-mails are interesting
