You are mad that bonner asked about the rumors?
Allow me to clarify. I'm not mad at all. Yes, my language suggests otherwise. Yet, I'm more confused. His job is to ask these questions. If he didn't he'd risk losing his credibility.
I don't get the twitter blasts though. And I completely understand & agree with Mullen's humorous response. The second tweet seemed entirely unnecessary.
My point is/was with my first post: why not ask the questions, get the answers, & write an article/column instead fanning the flames?
My guess at the answer is that this is what "journalism" has become. Traffic & click bait above writing. It's not Bonner's fault. This is apparently the way the game must be played. Post a tweet with hashtags & eventually National media, e.g. ESPN, picks it up, quotes it on air during silly season & more traffic & clicks flow to his account & employer.
It just seems Busch league. While his media credentials get him in the door & access to persons of interest to ask said questions for genuine content, the twitter blasts reek of something any two-bit, hack blogger could do, screaming "Pay attention to me. I'm in the know!" Thus doing a disservice to those very credentials.
Now, GET OFF MY LAWN & ignore my Maroon is All That Matters tinted shades!!!***
