JMM Manion banned at Arnold Classic?

[Beti ona]

No one is talking about this, but it is very strange. NPC News online always covers photos and videos of Meeting, press conference, and of course, prejudging and final of the most important shows. And that is updated every 2-3 hours.

More than 24 hours have passed since Friday's prejudging and final, and nothing has been published. There is only one publication related to the Arnold, the Score Cards.

So what is going on here?

Yeah Arnold said no JM

[Beti ona]

Bitch movement for Arnold, but nothing surprising.

But Manion have sent another photographer, or Arnold does not want relationships with NPC News?

In any case, this will be increased the polemic, it is bad for everyone.

[Bestia]

That is two powerful bodybuilding industry names at odds. Yikes

All has to do with the optics from the Washington Post article(s).

JM has been accused of wrong doing by female competitors.......Arnold doesn't want any part of that type of publicity

[Griff11]

Arnold doesn't want the bad PR.

I am fully aware of the reason for the ban.

Arnold only cares about his image, but Arnold and everyone in the business have known for a long time who participates in certain actions and bussines.

Arnold does business with Santonja and Manion, who are not the most moral and trustworthy people on the planet. Arnold also had business with the organizers of Arnold UK, who turned out to be corrupt.

Arnold is the only person in the industry who can stand alone. He doesn't need anyone else and those parties are acutely aware of it.

[Stay Puft]

Should of banned that scumbag in all events!

Bingo

Exactly.

For a celebrity on his level , HOW something looks to the public is more important than what actually happened.

This is a great example of why I believe having Kai as Mr Olympia was a nightmare PR deal for the big shots running the shows .

There is a big difference in Arnold baning JMM Manion and not allowing any other NPC News representative to go to takes photos, interviews and videos for show coverage.

And MD have not received permission either? Why don't we have photos galleryes?

I don't have the official reason for it, but the ASF didn't allow any websites to take photos. There was a Dropbox link sent to media outlets for photos that they had taken during the competitions. Those were the only ones that were authorized. I don't know if some people went out and got pics of their own another way, but this was what I was told.

Excellent info, very important.

I don't understand anything, Arnold spends more money to form a decent line up, extremely expensive PPV when half of the PL classes are missing, and finally the contest photographs are not allowed.

Bodybuilding fans are being mistreated.

Seriously, why not just focus on the Arnold strongman? The event is fucking popular and attractive, and on top of that it was free on youtube. Some epic lifting records were broken and the public is supporting crazy.
