PromoTheRobot Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 I didn't read the story they are referring to but knowing Sullivan and Harrington, I can pretty much imagine what it is. The same old same old they always write. https://twitter.com/sidneypegula/status/992953923702067200?s=20
BringBackOrton Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Pegula kids about to get a talking to and subsequent tweet deletion.
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Meh. Journalists writing stupid stuff, and people getting grumpy about it on Twitter has become far too cliche. 3 1
Wayne Cubed Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Isn’t that the Pegulas dog twitter? Who says the kids are running it?

ddaryl Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 BN is doing there typical round of "Buffalo Sports, Woe is me" at this point I can't even take anything they say sports wise serioulsy so I do not 1
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Less news. More 'Smiles At' photo galleries. What passes for journalism at the BN[competent]. 1 1
dpberr Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 "Journalism is the activity of gathering, assessing, creating, and presenting news and information." https://www.americanpressinstitute.org/journalism-essentials/what-is-journalism/ I'd argue that the Buffalo News no longer employs journalists, just the same run of the mill talking heads generating opinion that have replaced all the television news. Fun question: When is the last time you read an article from either of these two gentleman that was - from start to finish - news without opinion folded into it? Again, it gets to my point about pay walls. You're not paying for news. You're paying for opinion. Two different products. 2

That may be but when your opinion is garbage...
nedboy7 Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 Yeah. All News outlets are all crap. Now Facebook. That’s where the real news is at. Get a grip.
IDBillzFan Posted May 7, 2018 Posted May 7, 2018 You have to admit...the Twitter account is funny as hell. I thoroughly enjoyed the butthurt from Harrington. 2 2 1

When I see news outlets reporting that 'the party's Facebook page said' or 'we reached out' to those involved, I conclude journalism is rarely practiced in WNY. 6 minutes ago, LABillzFan said: You have to admit...the Twitter account is funny as hell.
