You do realize Gregg Doyel works for a Gannett paper, right? I'm all for criticizing the company, but to say they have unilaterally snuffed out big names is false.

I rarely defend Colin (and I do think his line of questioning was bad), but it might be more difficult to NOT have a slightly awkward interview with Harbaugh than the alternative. My bigger problem with Mr. 'Herd is his tendency to make gross, sweeping generalizations about ethnic or economic...

^ I think BDC99 is right. If you go around reading bios of writers that "made it" (whatever that means) fairly recently, very few of them did the tried and true chain of beats that often gets mentioned on this board as the track to the top. More often than not, they got a break onto a big beat...

Sports Media Guy has a much fairer, more nuanced opinion than Whitlock ... in my opinion. Also, if Whitlock wants to champion the old way of succession, he probably shouldn't mention that's how we ended up getting to read him on such an elevated platform. And last jab: I saw the title of this...

Feel free to fall on the sword if you like, but you weren't the only one voicing displeasure. On this thread or beyond it.

If you're saying this was unprofessional, but only watching the highlights that show Curry's daughter, then go seek out some Twitter accounts of reporters that were there and that say there was plenty of time/opportunity to ask Curry the questions they needed to ask. If anything, he was...

If this is the position I think it is, your pay will be (unsurprisingly) very low. I've had good interactions with Todd Franko in the past, but if I'm an applicant, I go into this with plenty of questions about the economic reality here.

Find the microcosm. Think of Dan Wetzel's treatment of the Giants/Patriot SB, and the scene with Tom Brady in the locker room. It told you almost everything you needed to know about the game in a narrative scene. It was human. It was intimate. And it relied almost zero on hackneyed quotes...

Woah.

Dan McHale will hop from Minnesota's bench to Eastern Kentucky. Has a history as assistant at Louisville, and started at Kentucky.

I absolutely agree that campus rape is a problem. A huge one. The most discouraging thing for me about this RS piece has not been an injured journalistic pride, but the damage it did to sexual assault victims and the stigma surrounding reporting rape. If RS really wanted to explore THAT, they...

Rosen is right. Erdely showed her hand (and future blindspots) the second she called up the person at UVa looking for a story emblematic of campus rape culture. A sensational catchall. Once that is what you're looking for, that's what you'll find, whether the narrative you pick is true or not...

Yes. Including Scottie Wilbekin, last year. He was talk of the tournament, then put up a 4 pt dud against UConn.

Not to ruin the stereotyped narratives here, but this "liberal's" stance: To me, the endgame of this law's backlash shouldn't be making sure every businessperson is forced to engage with every patron. That feels invasive. However, where this law went wrong, in my opinion, was extending further...

Personally, no. The pay is usually better, the job security better. But anytime I've felt like a shill, I've worked to move on, and PR work, largely, is accepting the life of being a company's shill, no matter what decisions that company makes. Usual caveat: there are exceptions to this rule...

Put me on the side that says it's a lazy excuse to say a football school can't excel at both. Logistically, that makes no sense. You don't have a finite number of basketball scholarships if you're using all of your football scholarships. You don't have competition for practice space or...

I've always thought that if we have anti-discrimination practices/laws in place, businesses that choose to violate those practices and laws should forfeit all tax breaks and state-sanctioned assistance provided to businesses. And honestly, I feel similarly about churches and non-profits...

I actually think this version of ESPN.com is more easily navigated. And personally, I enjoy the right panel that includes bigger blurbs for video and stories (which draws me in more than their previous teases did) and the social media stuff. It's interesting to me that it seems in some ways to...

Fixed that for you. Don't want some longform writer costing extra beans. Beans are almost expensive.
