As if we didn't know this already...people will bitch about anything. Most complaints I hear from the BR media is that they are too soft on LSU but you feel they're too critical.

To your broader point, I'm glad to see the BR media being critical when there are obvious issues. I much prefer this to being the lapdog of the program like you imply is a good thing in places like Arkansas. In 2010 there are many outlets for sports info, this board being one of them.

Second, who do you imply should "muzzle" the media? WTF is this, Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, Iran? frick no "they should not be muzzled any more than you should be allowed to write this shite on a message board accessable by those with an internet connection in the free world.

In a small market, the lone broadcast medium is no different than Pravda or Xinhua (remember - WJBO changed their news source from CBS to Fox because the station manager did not like Dan Rather's coverage of President Bush). That should not be confused with this conversation or your ability to make a counter point. You read this post and chose to engage in it.
