In every experience I have had with the media I have felt let down, whether it be as an observer or as a participant.
I only have to think of the reporting of XV179 for the first 2 days and the same again for the first day of XV230.
The utter lies put forth in the interests of selling a story were disgusting.
Add to that having journos on the flight deck taking photos when instructed not to and printing quotes that were meant to be expressly off the record (for a variety of reasons they had heard things that they should not have). I dont trust them, and if that upsets the honest journos out there too bad, better that than letting more crap come out from the dishonest ones.
