Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 213918, member: 173"] Generally agreed...but the fact that the initial article (since updated) didn't note that this was already self-reported by Syracuse and is being investigated by the NCAA is weak sauce. I'm thinking the Yahoos asked JB for comment, JB decided to play by the rules this time and not say anything...and then the Yahoos choose not to follow up with anyone else at Syracuse for public comment. Because then they might have found out additional information that made the story a whole lot less juicy - and what's the fun in being a journalist if you're not going to make the subjects of your story appear to be as amoral as you possibly can? I'd say it's bad journalism, but in reality it's par for the course for a journalist in 2012. It's like the media is on a mission to lower their credibility down to par with used car salesmen and Congress. [/QUOTE]
