Moxie posted:Well to be fair, it's not just the not raping that changed. By all accounts he has left previous assholish ways behind and has been presidential candidate style squeaky clean, which is pretty tough to do for two years straight. Not for nothing, but it shouldn't be that hard to live up to the standards of "don't be a jackass"

There's always going to be the line to walk between writing a solid, quality piece, and writing poo poo you might not really believe to stir up emotions, get page views, sell papers, etc. Living in a world where we're constantly bombarded by breaking news 24/7 from TV, radio, and internet has only exacerbated the problem. The "pace" of news has increased exponentially over the last 20 years, and with the looming death of print media, it's only going to get faster. It might still be easier to write a weekly column recapping something like the weekend of the Masters, or the week leading up to the Super Bowl, but basic news articles are being cranked out at a breakneck pace now and I think it gets harder and harder for reporters to keep up with it.

Mel Mudkiper posted:Is there a single decent human being who is a sports journalists or are they all universally underachieving narcissists Katie Nolan torched Rick Reilly on FS1 a while back so she's cool in my book. Personality wise, it's hard to say, but there are still some good groups out there. Yahoo's investigative journalists did a great job with things like the Univ. of Miami sanctions and the Jerry Sandusky stories. Same for Deadspin who I believe were the first to get to the bottom of the Manti Te'o story. That said, both employ some pretty annoying personalities as well, but that's basically the norm these days.

Holy poo poo John Clayton is cold loving blooded quote:Clare Farnsworth and I both came up with the same idea after the 24 games that he played, that once he got hurt, it was an injury that Ron Wolfley, the fullback on the Arizona Cardinals made on him on a hit, on a special teams play I believe, we ended up sending a gift to Ron Wolfley. *laughs*

WugLyfe posted:ESPN never got back to me about using their partnership with Disney to have and call games. The closest we ever got to this was 4 years ago when Ohio State and Michigan State had one of the saddest games of the season and Matt Millen and Sean McDonough were actively making GBS threads on it the whole time. It was great.
