Pacman Gore

Bob Krumm on the Tennessean’s scoop reporting tactics.

I don’t understand criticism of the Tennessean for filling its pages with stories about an ignorant thug who happens to play a sport.

Sure, on the surface it seems like a ridiculous story for a major newspaper to follow, but not when you consider that they held the Gore story (a real story) without running it.

It’s what those in the big newspaper business call a “news offset”.
