How Stupid Media questions could be?
No idea how many noticed this, but it really irritated me given the IQ of the press person, however Djoko answered it cool.
There was stupid pre match question to Djoko as follows
Q] R U nervous or is there a fear in you that you would just crush him?
A] No certainly not with a laugh n Smile.
Seriously what did the press person expected the answer to be? i.e like Yea I am worried how Andy and his family would treat me if I beat him in st.set, may be I need to send a Christmas pudding well in advance for them to overcome the sorrow
What annoyed me more is that, he is a sports media columnist and he should know something about surface, players form and other parameters, he put the question forward as if Andy has nothing to do with the result and it all was in Nole's racket only.
to listen to the interview ,
1]visit Wimbledon.com/en_GB/interactive/multimedia.html
2]search for date - 6th July 2013
3]watch the "Novak Djokovic Wimbledon press conference - 06/07/2013"

Remember that idiot who kept interviewing during the Flipkens match, making too much noise?
It was a though he thought that they should just get on with it - after all it's all about the event and making some inanely boring quirky article

This is the price for such multiplicity of channels. The World is mainly made up of idiots, and if you keep the number of channels few there's a chance you might get enough intelligent people to fill the jobs, but with the vast number now there's no chance.
I mean, once upon a time there was Harry Carpenter et al. Now there's Simon Reed. Quite.

Seems like who ever hired it they hired him for natural sense of humor, coz in this case all media people around him laughed for the question.

I agree, competition not just brings the best of few it brings the troll out of some people as well.
There should be certain media standards be set and failing that standard repeatedly should lose the license to run the channel.

I suspect there's a number of press people sent along to Wimbledon that don't actually really like tennis, but with all the added interest they have to send a couple of extra folk along.

They're the ones doing the 'human interest' stories like Murray supporting anyone but England in the World Cup.
