LOL there is absolutely no reason to hate on a guy for having that writing style. That's how/why he gets paid. So what? Just don't read it. It's much better than getting up on the soapbox and inciting a public mob with over-reactionary hit pieces on the new scandal-du-jour target.

No reason to hate on a journalist for being a corporate shill?

I swear every Deadspin article reads exactly the same. Overly snarky, cac-laden fakkitry. They're seriously indicting a guy who knows how to network and is eating well off his ability to build contacts? It's just nitpicking to nitpick. They're like the white kid who says their favorite rapper is eminem of sports media

It's just pointless. The man makes a living off of having a huge network, and maintains that network by placating them in his columns. This is his living, how he feeds his family. No harm, no foul. There's plenty of negativity out there if you want to be incited to a riot

:heh: Sports journalism is a fukking joke. It's all about drumming up controversy, fabricating narratives where there are none, hyperbolizing trivial things to humanize larger than life sports stars. The guy is fukking harmless. This deadspin cac is just being a whiny hipster fakkit for no reason.
