ESPN had every Bulls fan thinking Lebron was going to Chicago. It's ridiculous how inadequate they are.

Y'all crack me up goin' in on ESPN for reporting wrong sources.
Would it ever occur to people that the "sources" are purposely giving misinformation to hide the truth.
Everyone has an agenda, and the source has a much greater motivation for giving wrong info than ESPN does.

Inexcusable at this point. "Sources" are ESPN's scapegoat without a scapegoat. Just like the name ESPN tries to be an acronym without the acronym. But it remains the same: "Entertainment" comes before "Sports." It's just a poor excuse for journalism. And before you ask, I still watch it because they have the best collection of sports highlights, period and everyone knows it. But as journaslists, they are collective, side of the curb trash.

part of your job is to ascertain if your source is credible
the 12th man on phx's bench shouldn't be allowed to say amare wants to be the only star on the knicks
after leon rose, www, and maverick carter jerk you around all summer you aren't supposed to continue to cite them. they aren't credible anymore

Right, so when Mav Carter tells Broussard something, even when he knows there's an agenda behind it, Broussard's just supposed to not report it? And that's supposed to help ESPN's interest's how?
They're in the business of creating interest and getting viewers. If they were fabricating stuff out of thin air all the time then that would likely get exposed.
But yeah, a lot of their journalists suck, but they're definitely not alone there. Plenty of newspaper columnists are terrible too.

I'm dying to hear why you trust Schefter.
They're all pawns to the people in organizations who give them info. You think they're out intercepting phone calls or something?

Adman Schefter has earned my trust. He has a better track record than any other analyst I know of and I've been fallowing him since his early NFL Network days.
The only analyst in the business with so many sources you cab catch him periodically checking his black berry on set, cameras rolling and all.

ESPN is pathetic, their "sources" are flies it seems.
I rarely rarely watch it now. Their east coast bias is just too much to deal with.
