i never made this about quality reporting. never. please link that post
Um...you said it twice in your first post
quote:
You people think this has anything to do woth reporting?
Absolutely nothing to do with who they think is better
and then another
quote:
the "relationship" you speak of is one paying the other $$$ so it can say it is the official paper. Will have zero effect on the writing staff or quality of reporting.
and then another
quote:
Do you think that Crystal is on there because the team took a vote? Negative sir. They paid to have that "official" status.
This last one implied that people in this thread think Benson picked the "better" paper. No one here is some naive rube, we know Benson picked the more advantageous paper. Before your first post the only comments made about quality were by me and corndeaux, and both statements very clearly alluded to the HOPE that increased COMPETITION would be the catalyst for improving journalistic quality, not that any high level of journalistic quality was currently present in either organization.
Print dying is obviously some topic near and dear to your heart and has you tilting at windmills because you're arguing about things that haven't really been said.

oh my...
any chance I said this because of this?
that is where someone else said it could improve the quality of reporting.
then my FIRST post says.... lets circle back....
I pointed out that this is an attempt to sell more product and ads. thats it. companies do that in a number of ways including sports sponsorships. thats all this is. so you see rita looking all excited about her new partner... its noting but her new revenue so that the Advocate can get additional revenue. reporting is not an issue here.
but your going to keep thinking whatever you want. just don't twist my words.

Like this a lot. This town needs a better class of professional NBA writers. Hopefully this move pushes TP/Advocate to make it happen
