re: How does the LSU admin fire Will Wade and avoid the PR nightmare?

Who else causes a PR nightmare besides the media?

I don't understand the question. People act. The media reports the actions. What is the cause then?

Oh it sure is. How do they handle firing him and then nothing comes from the allegations? That’s what is going to happen.

Even if they don’t fire him, it’s a ‘Hostile Work Environment’ for Wade and he would go and they’d have to pay him out.

again, it is still a small delusional and emotional minority that think that

Are you considering Richard Lipsey part of this “small and delusional minority?”

GTFOH lol

are the type of morons that keep us stuck with Alleva.

I don't like Alleva and want him gone.

ETA: There is a world that exists where Wade did something wrong and LSU admin still fricked up royally in how they handled this. I know it's asking a lot to get you to realize that, but try anyway.

---

so the admin fricked up by suspending a coach that's on tape, twice, trying to buy players? And you think this is wrong?

He has a voice but chose to go on an old man rant about politics. Has anyone in the media reported on that at all?

No offense, this is, on its face, sensible.
However, since Woodward and Bernstein in the early 1970s trying to expose and cause the resignation of the president, "journalists" have become more activists than simply reporting actions.

You can see it in politics and culture, one can see it in sports around the world. "Journalists" are not about reporting facts, or quality of writing, especially in the 24/7 news cycle. No, "journalists" want to affect the news, create the news all while "reporting" the news.

Just look at soccer....yeah, yeah, yeah...players may be transferred (technically their contracts are transferred) ONLY in July, August, and January. The British press is awash, inundated half-hourly, by "journalists" writing stories about "X player being 'linked with' y club." Is is true? Mostly not, agents trying to get their players names out there to build interest and demand, journalists trying to unsettle teams and cause havoc, and often it works. Often they know no real facts, but publish anyway.

I WISH is was still as you describe, so simple, so straightforward. But no, Pat Forde WANTS to be somebody. He wants to brag to his friends how he upset the applecart of LSU basketball.

frick you. Seriously.

quality argument

You have been having the admins back during this entire shite show. How fricking dare you.

well I do think the admin was correct in suspending Wade

quote:

---

That entire community [Penn State] turned their back on child rape

---

correct, and that's why I wanted Penn State to get crushed with penalties, and am merely bringing up the fact that some people said "don't punish, it'll only hurt the kids who had nothing to do with the problem." Again, if that's the standard, virtually no pushishment could ever be handed out, anywhere, because the kids on the team would get hurt.

quote:

you fricking neanderthal

---

again, quality argument

Oh, I'm not trying to suggest the media doesn't attempt (and in a lot of cases succeed) in shaping perception. I'm just saying, in this instance, there are other factors at work and that might possibly be a bigger factor in shaping public relations perception. It's silly to think it is solely on the media.

I guess my threads have have had an impact. 2 is being inflated to 20.
