『これはひどい』を英語で言おう~基本的事実を調べもせずにリヴァプールをけなした米国人コラムニストの事例

2010年12月8日、HillsboroughがUKのトレンディング・トピックスに入っていました。「ヒルズバラの悲劇」は4月だし、シェフィールド・ウェンズデーの試合で大きなことがあったのかな、でもTTに入るようなビッグ・チームではないし(失礼)、と不思議に思って見てみると、米国の新聞『ボストン・タイムズ』のコラムニストが、「ヒルズバラはサポが暴れただけなのに、20年以上も追悼し続けている変な都市、それがリヴァプールだ」みたいなことを書いていた、ということでリヴァプールFCのサポのみなさんを中心に「これはひどい」と大炎上。デイリー・メイルまで出てきてます(たぶんTwitterでネタを拾ったのでしょうが)。 以下、基本的事実を調べることもなく好き勝手なことを書いているジャーナリストへの感情的反発を示す英文の例文集としてもご活用ください。

@lauralouw

to say Hillsborough was a riot is ignorant @GlobeAlexBeam is an idiot who is more clueless about 'soccer' than the people he writes about.
