It has been a Gannett publication since the Manships sold out many years ago. Same with NOLA.com
All liberal rags with little local imput/interest/loyalty.

The brainless fart that wrote this guest column said there will never be a more clear case of lack of institutional control when Penn State's leaders went to prison for covering up child rape to protect the brand.

This guy has shite for brains and should be a columnist for The Advocate. He'd fit right in.

This state is amazing sometimes. Let’s make a float with Zion as a fat slob.
Let’s print a story about shutting down the program that people read our paper to follow
Let’s run out on the field in the national championship and hand out cash to the players of the school you went to

Well at least we won’t have to worry about reading his shitty opinions that much longer.

If I were running a paper and one of my writers gave me that story to run in the city of the school that is the subject of that story, I'd fire his arse on the spot, and that story is getting burned in the trash can in front of him.

The Advocate, well, they run the fricking story.

Have lost all respect for the Advovate. What editor in their right mind would allow that clown to suggest eliminating football and basketball at LSU? Utterly ridiculous.

See the post after yours about the guy canceling one of The Advocate's three last existing subscriptions. Looks like The Advocate lost.

If Scott was a real tough AD he would drop the hammer on the advocate writers for all sports out of spite for that article.

What a douche. Does any hometown college paper hate its local program as much as The Advocate.

Wow advocate ,great business model you have there.
If you shut down LSU football and basketball what kind of effect do you think it will have on the economy of Baton Rouge and the state ?

Edward should set an example and shut himself down.

It's just an opinion piece, from one individual. Just read or ignore it and move on. But not worth melting about.

Hyperbole as means to avoid extinction. The last gasp of breath for a dying organization / industry / concept of gaining information.

I hope you saved some money Ed, you're a dinosaur and the asteroid is glowing on the horizon.
