Sports blog that reports rumors, stories, and opinion posts

Mark Sanchez Love Story

Confidential MLB Financial Statements

Page 3: Blogs and ethics

Has drawn great criticism in the journalism word

Buzz Bissinger bashed the site for its lack of professional journalism

Often accused of crossing boundaries

Page 4: Blogs and ethics

It’s a blog, not a news organization

Ran by opinionated writers

Difference is not everything is true

There are no rules or guidelines to writing a blog

Report stories or post opinions major news organizations are afraid to

If you don’t like it, don’t read it
