Message: [QUOTE="Flutterby, post: 2203753, member: 1853"] I would also have thought a program such as 4 Corners would have interviewed her workmates so that they could present the full story. But that wouldn't have suited their anti-league agenda. Which let's face it was really what this story was about. I am not for one second condoning what went on in that hotel room that night (that is my view, but I also believe all those involved felt it was OK at the time) and fully believe that she has suffered terrible emotional trauma because of it (when said trauma kicked in, well I don't believe it was during that night). However the ABC could have found similar stories and incidents from just about every sporting code and also from the general public. This type of behavior is unfortunately throughout society and it is time that the media stop targeting Rugby League and blaming society's ills on this one sport. Yes RL does have some very serious issues to address around what is considered acceptable behavior in within the culture of RL (and FTR I think it is a minority of players that actually get themselves involved in unsavory incidents); but so does all aspects of society and it is time everyone looked at the bigger picture and worked together to address it instead of laying blame and pointing the finger at one part of society. Anyway, I'm done with this thread now. [/QUOTE]
