It really is fake news and the constant negativity from the local media is overwhelming. This place agreed completely up until the season began when it was cheap and unwarranted. Now that the Vols aren’t competing at some of your standards, you think it’s ok for them to be as negative as they want to be to get him fired.

Here’s a perfect example, borrowed from someone at Dr. Saturday/yahoo and around the web. First, I know Saban has earned the right to not have his coaching questioned. This is only comparing two exact situations and how they were covered.

National Headline from dipshit Sam Cooper:
'Fake news' rant shows Butch Jones doesn't understand role of media

Hot take from story:

To start, it’s completely understandable that Jones wouldn’t want information about an alleged altercation among teammates or the nature of Tuttle’s injury to get out into the public. But Jones thinking it’s the duty of the media to report with “Will this negatively impact recruiting?” in mind is ridiculous.


National Headline that dipshit Sam Cooper didn't write 2 weeks ago:
Rant shows Nick Saban doesn't understand role of media

Hot take that could’ve been written 2 weeks ago.
To start, it’s completely understandable that Saban wouldn’t want information about scheme and injuries to get out into the public before hosting CSU. But Saban thinking it’s the duty of the media to report with “Will this help Bama beat CSU” in mind is ridiculous.

National Headline from dipshit Same Cooper one month ago:
Watch a Nick Saban rant take a funny, lighthearted detour

Local Headlines from Bama media following rant:
Nick Saban talks Colorado State, Alabama linebackers -AL.com

Just cause you ask a question, it doesn’t mean Nick Saban will answer it -Huntsville WHNT.com


A lot of people like to pick and choose when the media is liberal and a lot of media like to pick and choose how they do their jobs.
