“The only difference between being uninformed and misinformed is that one is your choice and the other is theirs.”
Frank Sonnenberg, Listen to Your Conscience
Like all journeymen cricketers, the media space splashed about David Warner - whether it be main stream print or electronic media or the more insidious social media platforms - has only increased as his last appearance in Test matches has approached.
His runs, his media gaffs, his outspoken wife, the abhorrence of his role in the "sandpaper gate" crisis of faith ... they have all been blasted at anyone who would listen and even those who chose to turn away. The majority of it is popularist bullshit, written not to express an opinion but to mimic pub talk and please potential consumers of the modern world version of pulp fiction. Many who write, do so for approval and what better way than to avoid your own opinion - if indeed you are capable of such - and simply pile the steaming stuff on a soon to be extinct carcass.
