Sports media also fails

It ain’t just the political press which comes in for my wrath.

I got in the car to go to the store this afternoon and flipped on the AM station to hear some of the Saints-Cardinals game just in time for the “halftime report” from Westwood One, which has the radio broadcast rights to the playoffs. I heard the score (Saints 35 – Cardinals 14) and expected to hear a recap of how the game got to that point in the first half. What did I get? “Will the Colts’ sitting their players down in the last two games of the season affect their performance in the upcoming game this afternoon?” Not a freakin’ word about whether Brees picked apart the Cardinals’ secondary, whether Reggie Bush ran well, is the Saints’ pass rush affecting Warner, etc., etc.

Way to go, Westwood One.
