I noticed that they took away the Bleacher Report Writer Program, with the intent of just having professional writers from now on. So, I have a couple questions. What happens to the people already accepted to the program? They definitely should get to stay with Bleacher Report. And second, will Bleacher Report ever reopen applications to become a writer with the site? I felt like this was a great way for someone who knows sports, or a specific sport, extremely well (and has good writing skills) to get a foot in the door for a journalism career and give them great experience writing for a sports site.

I applied multiple times when I was younger, and was never accepted, much to my shock. I can assure you that I know A LOT about tennis (and the focus of the majority of my applications), and would be extremely qualified to write about tennis. Especially considering how little content, and few writers, Bleacher Report has on its site (LINK ). I also have bet on tennis a lot, so I could offer that perspective, as well (in addition to my general knowledge). I have even followed the ATP Challenger Tour some! It's just very frustrating.

Does anyone know if there is a future for the Bleacher Report Writer Program?
