Sports Is Not Journalism

Once upon a time, a crusty old City Editor once grumbled "sports is not journalism, it's the toy department". 

 Apparently, at the News Sentinel, sports isn't even good English.



Congratulations to Fort Wayne's afternoon paper for creating a new word "expections".

    Good post.
    Stay safe out there.
