ESPN Obudsman Blasts Network's Coverage
In what may be my favorite article ever written on ESPN.com, ESPN's ombudsman, Le Ann Schreiber, absolutely destroys the network's recent coverage of Spygate, most notably their "SportsCenter Specials" with the NFL Live Crew.
Schreiber calls it, "a runaway train of one-sided speculation," specifically ripping analysts Mark Schlereth and Cris Carter. While I dislike the Patriots as much as the next guy, I find it incredibly refreshing to see fair and balanced news and real, legitimate journalism.
For anyone interested in anything regarding the story, or just all the much adieu about nothing and hot air that sports reporters tend to blow out, I strongly recommend reading this article.
