The Media Circus

A couple of days back, Correio da Manha reported that Benfica lost 58m Euros in their first year of being in the EuroNext (Portuguese Stock Exchange). At first sight this might be an alarming piece of news, but it's not. Benfica Up Front blogger explains in detail what this "loss" really means.

I have mentioned before that the media is highly controlled by the powers that be.
Correio da Manha is owned by the same people that own Record, and you know what type of verbal regurgitations Record is capable of doing.

Everyone knows that Benfica sells papers, it always as it always will.

For quick reference:

O Jogo = Porto
Record = Sporting

A Bola is the most balanced of them all, It was at one point pro Benfica, but it has created a balance within its pages since then. So when you read, keep an open mind.
