Spiteful reporting on Stuff - DO BETTER!

Markus from Green Bay

I posted the following comment on an article on Stuff - let's see if it gets swept under the metaphorical carpet again:

"The traditional elite have been cut down to size" is as bad as writing "The upstarts have been put in their place" - I enjoy the Women's Football World Cup very much, I enjoy the supposedly smaller footballing nations upsetting "the usual order" as much as anyone, and I MOST enjoy the fair play and consideration by some players (eg how the UK's Chloe Kelly consoled the Nigerian goal keeper instead of celebrating her winning penalty) and spectators (eg the Japanese cleaning up after themselves after each game, and others following suit) and I can say with conviction: there is no place for such spiteful reporting!

I'm VERY disappointed in Stuff. Shame on that reporter - and the editor for letting it through.
