Sports Journalists Forum – Media, Newsroom & Reporting Talk

Help Support Sports Journalists Forum:

Question, though: Why were we able to get along just fine without them, and still get a paper out every day, through the 1980s and 1990s?

An addition to my earlier rant: Every fall Saturday I sit in a college football press box and listen to reporters on personal calls (yes, both during the game and after) and hear whatever annoying sound each has going off when they have an incoming text (usually from a buddy who's watching the game in the stands or at home). Totally unnecessary. I liked it better when it was marginally quiet during games.

Progress and technology ain't all that great.

Like somebody said before, I'm old but not that old, either. That concludes my Grinch performance so close to Christmas.
