The Puppeteer of Squawka ~ Exposing Media Bias against CR7

{part 1}

Starting with @muhammadbutt 🔦
Large accounts on Twitter such as @Squawka / @goal / @brfootball
formulate a large majority of public football opinion due to their large influence and spread across the football community.

I will be showing why you must be careful because hate and bias bleed into everything.
Today I’ll be showcasing how Bias begins from the top, showcasing chief writer and head at Squawka Muhammad Butt’s tweets and how his bias clearly affects the public opinion.
Let me preface, everyone is entitled to their opinion, ESPECIALLY in sport. However, large pages like these should thrive to be as objective and as impartial as possible as they possess a strong power in swaying the general public’s opinion.
Difference in opinion is fine, but when clear hate for a player takes over your objective reasoning, you get an example such as Muhammad today. I will be showcasing some rather sad tweets and showing that even at the top of football media, there is this hate and bias towards CR7.
I am not going to psycho analyze every single tweet he has against CR7, but the point is, this man tweet about him a lot. A LOT. And it is exponential in comparison to every other player. Sift through his page and you’ll find Ronaldo more than anyone. 1 in 100 is maybe positive.
Here are many of them
Here are some where he tries to force the rape allegations against Ronaldo to be true despite them still being disputed at the time.

(Also the celebration was mimicking Simeone’s celebration which EVERYONE knew)
Just a couple more.

For context in the first pic. Neymar had 4 goals and Ronaldo 24 in that year. Not really in comparison but of course he tries to ✨force✨

Also last pic: almost 10 different strikers in Europe average the same amount of shots/game as Cristiano, but 🤷🏻‍♂️
Couple more because he isn’t obsessed.
Muhammad also has this obsession with downplaying ronaldo to a bench role. Whenever he goes one game without scoring every next article on squawka is how Ronaldo should be a bench sub... so Messi this season should be....? What exactly???
Everyone is entitled to their opinion but here is a shocker.

Everyone is aware Ronaldo is at worst the second best of this generation and obviously top 4 oat.

2016 PEPE BALON D’OR? Try harder
While most of his hate tweets are related to CR7 - I thought you’d like to see his most often tweeted words just to get an idea of what he likes to discuss.

Barca fan?

*acts surprised*
IN THE END. You can like whoever you want and talk shit about whoever you want. But to act like you’re impartial online (on Squawka of course) and displaying disproportional amounts of hate to one player is sad and considering their influence on public opinion... depressing.
[End of thread]

- don’t send hate to this guy for the love of god.

- this was just posted to show that there is media biases everywhere and that you should be weary of anyone and everyone’s opinion
Muhammad has a great knowledge of the game otherwise, not trying to discredit him in that way.

It’s just sad to see agendas bleed into work when they clearly have something great going on there on @Squawka
Point is. Do your research kids and form your own opinion. Not going to yell around saying FAKE NEWS because I hate those very people but it’s important to be careful.
Also. Yes I’m a Madrid fan. And of course I have bias. So please don’t waste your time searching me up.

The difference with me is I currently don’t hold a massive influence on public opinion 😭
If you made this far, here are some extras
Found another gem on my timeline - the case was dropped a year ago now but you know.... hatred doesn’t leave ✨
