boyst Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) Who cares who reported it first? It's not like their plagiarizing a best selling book, it's freakin' football news. Some people take themselves way too seriously. Pure ignorance right hurr. Do you understand how the internet works? How journalism works? How someone like Tim Graham will make a living by posting N article that is published to the BN then tracked to see how many people click on it? That he makes a living using his expertise to craft his thoughts, effort and research in to an article? Then some pimple faced gel comes along and steals it and calls it his own on a site beating the BN because of shady tactics used on search engine databases? What about Wawrows big breaking story about JBJ? Do you realize how ripped off that was? Of course, ESPN pays a premium to use the material from the AP, but many sites don't. Real journalists cover the news, dig deep and do not generate it. BR steals, ccheats and lies. I guess that's good enough standards for you Edited November 19, 2014 by jboyst62
Saxum Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Who cares who reported it first? It's not like their plagiarizing a best selling book, it's freakin' football news. Some people take themselves way too seriously. Journalism used to divide opinions and news with news reporters who wanted to express opinions clearly state it as an opinion even if citing fasts with clear lines against plagiarism. Now days most of news is really opinions with some slanted facts which may fit their opinion cited and often sources are opinions written by writers which share their view. Many of the electronic news industry have followed the leader in toilet bowl reporting since 1996 because like slander sheets and other made up articles they generated sales.
