No News is No News

The Tennessean has made a significant change in their coverage of the Predators. John Glennon, beat reporter for the Tennessean who primarily covers the Preds, is no longer traveling on the road to cover the away games. Today's sport section had AP wire reports for the Preds game last night in Philly. Glennon will continue to provide local coverage of the team. All newspapers are suffering financially, for a variety of reasons, and this is one way to contain costs. In the view of The View, the coverage of the Preds by the Tennessean has been average at best. This only serves to lower the bar for that coverage. And that is pathetic.

  1. Sad commentary on the current state of affairs in the "old media". I enjoy your stuff and reading about you hanging out with Mirtle. I'm trying to hook up with other in the Pred blog community on our PredsOnTheGlass radio show on Blog Talk radio. I would love your participation. We did our show tonight with Cody from Section303.org and had Chasta Piatakovas representing the Caps for the last 15 minutes. Email me at buddyoakes@hotmail.com if you want to consider it. Thanks,

    Buddy
