Guys, just trying to put together and update for FM09 - and it allows us to add in individual journalists who then appear in game.
So I need a bit of help with gathering data:
I need lists of Newspapers, Fanzines, Magazines, Radio Stations, TV Stations, Websites - both national and local which cover the league and the individual clubs.
Please list as follows:
Irish Mirror - League
Donegal Democrat - Finn Harps
For the Journalists - I need the following format:
FIRST NAME, COMMON NAME, SECOND NAME, DATE OF BIRTH, NATION OF BIRTH, GENDER, FAVOURITE TEAM, MEDIA SOURCE NAME, CHARACTER
Con Murphy, Ireland, Male, Shamrock Rovers, Friday Sportsnight, Journo_Nice
The types of Journalist Character are: JOURNO_NORMAL, JOURNO_CUNNING, JOURNO_NICE, JOURNO_DISHONEST, JOURNO_ILL_TEMPERED, JOURNO_DULL
Cheers

Who is the best known national journalist who covers and enjoys watching the Eircom League? Maybe Robert Reid or Sean Ryan?
