Media coverage matters when it comes to both recruiting and fan support.  do you think Dabo Swinney deals with this garbage?   if you do i suggest you take a look at the publications that follow Clemson.  heck even rutgers gets better coverage and the newspaper there is a newhouse media property just like syracuse.com.
 
The problem is not new media.   The problem is that they are dealing with the challenge of new media by resorting to  negative controversial opinion pieces...where research and content like video interviews and the like would produce much more interest and traction long-term.  You'll note the same sort of garbage in the coverage of politics - why because it is controversial and can generate clicks. 
 
People complain about it because it has a negative effect on SU football, like it or not it truly does - think about how big of a deal twitter is to recruits if you think silly commentary online doesn't have an impact.   the only thing we can do is complain, hopefully they'll get the message before more damage is done.
