Rosenberg/Synder Confronted

it will be on TMZ.

"It is an insult to me and my journalistic integrity that you could ask me such a question. I have made my arguments clearly and with facts. Also, I have insider information that Rich Rodriguez once said 'I will win ... even if ... it means ... I must ... kill ... babies.' So what if that quote was taken over the course of several years and involved me sifting through old press conferences and splicing them together?"

(This did not actually take place.)

And found it funny the way they ducked and dodged around it. I believe Snyder was the one asking Coach "Why he was getting emotional" and RR walked away from him at the end.

I find it funny that reporters love to "go after" people, but head for the hills when they are aproached.

I AM ALL IN FOR COACH ROD AND THESE PLAYERS !!!!!!!

GO BLUE!!!!!!!!!!

Well then, talk about it with us. Write one of those "how we got the story" columns. Or better yet, the assignment editor will need to write "why we stepped in it but really didn't mean to" mea culpa colummns. Chait's New Republic piece is perfect. As an editor, I would switch reporters to different beats when they got too cozy or too poisonous. If they couldn't be impartial, complete and ACCURATE, they were off the beat. The Rosenberg piece was too sloppy by half. That's his fault, but most of all, it's his editor's fault.

Brian definitely confronted R/S. You can hear Brian introduce himself at the beginning.

A little bonus drama among journalists/bloggers (I think you're right that Brian may have been the one digging at him ... he appeared later in the shot in front of the podium.)

THese guys are no better than message board trolls who instigate and threaten, talking big under the disguise of the internet, but in person have no spine at all.

On The Fort, someone made mention that they thought it was Brian that was confronting Snyder. Then someone else mentioned how great MGoBlog is (which it is). Mere moments later, all posts related to that original post were deleted!

Give me a fucking break, Rivals.

Maybe Brian should confront Snyder about why he constantly steals his information and passes it along without linking. This happened during the whole 2010 first game mess, where the Free Press posted a debunking to the theory that it was Georgia four days after Brian did, offering the same evidence and analysis, citing that it appeared in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (I wonder where they got it?)

Good for Brian, wonder if they have any remorse yet

More evidence that Brian owns in-state Michigan news and that Rivals and Scout fear him?

that is all

Hell no! This is beautiful! Thanks for posting!

They won't share their information with competing media outlets? Then what were they doing all over the media this weekend and this morning? If they don't consider ESPN to be a competitor, then it's understandable why the Freep is going down the tubes.

Nope, this is all about their desire to take part in what they think are going to be friendly interviews, where their reporting is not challenged or questioned in any serious, non-softball way, which is what Brian was doing.

I don't generally like to indulge in name-calling when it comes to "professional journalists" since what they do is actually very important, but in this case the word "weasel" keep popping up in my mind. Don't know why.

I knew Rosenberg and Snyder were weak when they baked a Quiche and roller skated to Schembechler Hall with pink leg warmers on, while humming the latest Rick Ashley song.

Wouldn't that be 'Astley'?
