Radio broadcasts can have their share of influence. 1938 CBS broadcast of 'The War of the Worlds' caused a lot of panic. The fireside chats of FDR helped a nation cope. More recently, 'Radio Rwanda' directed genocide in its broadcasts.
What you do with your broadcast is the point of interest.

The BR market is already soft by anyone's standards.
I think there is too much whining. You seem to believe that media is not tough enough. Perhaps. But we disagree.

Any good market deserves a watchdog media.
Yes. This conversation is about being a watchdog to the media, if they veer off.

More importantly, media should monitor its tone before it bites the hand that feeds it.
You should listen to the Dan LeBatard Show out of Miami. Dan has the President of the Marlins on weekly and openly blast him.

I'm what some people might call a "positiger", but no- the press should be allowed to freely report. It's up to us as individual free-thinkers to decide whether or not they're full of crap.
I happen to like CH & GR's post-game input. That doesn't mean I always agree with what I hear, but they are both quite knowledgable of the program.
Much of the current criticism of our offense & offensive scheme is warranted, to be fair about things. The same goes for our coaching. Yes- I said that.
I still believe things can be turned around with our offensive woes and other issues, but I don't care to be lied to by the local press until they are.....
