The whole Harrington doing his terrible journalism thing again, (which reached the main HF board ) It made me think. Buffalo's sports journalism is terrible. I know some Buffalo HF posters even said this in that Harrington thread.
But here's the thing. There's got to be some diamonds in the coal mine that is western new york sports media.
How about a brain storming session where we just nominate a bunch of media personalities and then rank them.
THEN we promote them whenever WNY journalism comes up various threads.
I don't want to be like some self-righteous twit and lead protests against personalities TBN, WGR, or whomever.
But I'd rather do something positive. I want to promote and follow good honest WNY journalists who should deserve promotion for good sound sports journalism.
The thing is I only know of Bill Hoppe and Joe Yerdon as my go to guys for Sabres news. I'd like some suggestions on others, for Sabres, or Bills.
I know Nick Mendola still works in town with NBCsports and BuffaloFC. He's mainly soccer.
Any others??
