The new era in media reveals a lot about how these national guys do their jobs.
We just assumed in the past that they had a lot of inside information, real contacts - and people like John Clayton or the bigger names you can assume probably do.
But a lot of these national media types traffic in "could be" type of reporting that is based only on what they think personally and nothing else, or just items they scoop off the internet from questionable sources or the media that's available to anyone else.
It seems like the professionalism, the expertise has left journalism.
And with some teams being careful about what they share with whom, you could probably say that the average fan knows more and the media knows less than ever before.
