What disturbs me most, and confirms what some call "conspiracy theories" is this exchange from that column:
Bias? Nah. There isn't any.
For about the last year, a buddy of mine has been dating an employee of CBS42 here in Bham. I recently learned they'll be trying something new this upcoming season regarding sports coverage. The plan is to operate out of a location in Tuscaloosa for all home games. A news room "home base" if you will. No more traveling back and forth or rushing to prepare stories/clips/etc. for the Tide.
To save costs, they plan to eliminate sideline reporting alltogether for the 2012 Aubun Tigers. All footage used will be obtained through Montgomery and other local affiliates.
No joke.
