plenzmd1 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 It's not really appropriate for me to comment on personnel issues generally, but let me say this. We are sad to see Kimberley go and appreciate what she brought to our coverage over the last few months. The Washington Post was her dream destination when she decided she wanted to be in this business. They had an opening and called her. It was impossible to turn down. It's a wonderful opportunity for her and we know she will do a great job. As for us, we already have talked to several potential candidates and will continue to examine what makes the most sense for the short term and the long term. We remain committed to providing the most comprehensive Bills coverage available. Thanks, Josh Just a suggestion Josh, let go the Holy Triumvirate of Bucky, Sully, and Harrington and pay Ty Dunne! JK I cant blame her for going to the WAPO, as it seems like she would have been crazy not to with the star talent that has gone through that place in the last 40 years on the Sports desk.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Call it Pravda, since that's what it is. Take it to the PPP please. There is no reason to turn this nothing burger into a political discussion. Sports wise the Post is ok. Unless they cover the Bills. Kudos for 1 or 2 decent stories on the Bills top rated defense.

I thought she did good work for TBN especially that recent article on Tyrod. It was well done. Looking forward to seeing who comes on board next. Chris Trapasso was a great hire too, btw.

plenzmd1 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Sports wise the Post is ok. I would say arguably the best sports section in the nation over the last 40 years, bar none! Amd YOLO, I like Trapasso's stuff as well, great hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted October 20, 2017 Author Share Posted October 20, 2017 nah that's her twitter handle. What was her racist comment? Kimberley Martin, formerly covered NY Jets for Newsday @KMart_BN For those who *haven't* heard the exciting news: I've accepted a sports columnist position at @TheBuffaloNews... Definitely a more diverse reporter than they've had in the past (seemed like mostly all grumpy white males) yikes she didn't say that, I did! I certainly apologize if it offended you. I didn't mean it that way. I was saying it was a diverse addition to the staff that was previously all white males. And I added that they were mostly grumpy. I didn't mean all white males are grumpy. Just those that have recently covered the Bills at BTN. I appreciated the diverse hire. Sorry for any confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most of the white males who have been bills fans for the past 20 years are pretty grumpy. But so are the black ones. And the white and black women Bills fans. I think pretty much all of us. #wearegrumpnation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
