Omar & The Daily News
As is the case with all media now a days - they create news - and break the ethical and moral standards of true news reporting daily.
There is absolutely no doubt Adam Rubin was prospecting for work on the baseball operations side - or if not that creating controversy was a boon to him not a problem. Sadly he knows it, his colleagues know it and The News knows it
Right now his career has shot skywards - not because of his ability - but because as Curt Gowdy Jr. put it when approached by Rubin about his prospects on cable and told he was too flat - HE IS NO LONGER FLAT!
The News will milk it, Rubin will milk it, SNY will even milk it - and his fellow reporters will milk it - and as always is the case with the media - they have the bully pulpit and take the approach that the louder they speak the more right they appear to be -
That's just the sad state of affairs in our society - it's not just a sports news problem - it's a media ability and ethics problem.
Even our President has to contend with the circus like atmosphere that news organizations create to increase ratings and circulation. The truth doesn't matter, what's important doesn't matter - and sadly lives don't matter - just making money!!!!
