Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.

I have yet to read one negative thing out of anything from Indy.
The idea that the local small market media would be less driven by the desire for clicks seems wrong to me. I’d site opinions on this site about local media as evidence. That said, it’s pretty obvious that the national “insiders” at places like ESPN are shills for the league and transmission lines for whatever ownership/management wants the narrative to be most of the time. They’re interesting and sometimes insightful when it comes to the palace intrigue stuff, just be aware of who their sources are and what their motivations may be. Perhaps the local guys are better at cultivating locker room sources but again the reader should understand the perspective and motivations there as well.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
