Ole Miss Journalism......

[Leeshouldveflanked]

I wouldn't give you two cents for a Journalism Degree from Ole Miss..... The Ole Miss NCAA situation has been very bad look for the Ole Miss Journalism Department and makes you question the credibility of a degree from it.... does anyone know one of it's graduates who has any credibility at all?

 

[HammerOfTheDogs]

"Ole Miss Journalism"- they put the MORON into Oxymoron.

 

[coach66]

Interesting that the associate dean is an

MSU grad. I went to his brothers funeral yesterday.

What does the Ole Miss journalism department have to do with this?

Law school is taking a few lumps in this too.

They no longer have control of the hospital.

Well, they'll always be the experts on "Faulkner Studies" and "Blues Theory" I guess.

Pretty much everything. If it has to be laid out for you then you wouldn't understand anyway

There's soon going to be a lot of disappointed dogs.

Godfrey really did his homework in this article. But we all knew what was going on anyway.

Once Leo gets up there and Ricky Woods testifies, the NCAA will be forced to end their conspiracy collusion investigation.

We're screwed*

 

[dorndawg]

Curtis Wilkie is pretty solid, for a rebel

 

[coach66]

They do certainly believe that the combination of these Starkville coaches and

the summons man plus their threats of multiple more lawsuits are going to wilt the NCAA and save the day.

"You never know what the NCAA will do."—Jungrebel

"We're probably screwed."—Jungrebel

Admittedly, Jungrebel s a much lesser known graduate of the Ole Miss school of Journalism, but to act like three ******** fully represent thousands of people is...well, you know what, it's pretty standard operating procedure these days in most spheres of life, so nevermind.

 

[Chesusdog]

I suspect people are confusing fansite operators and propanda mouthpieces with actual journalists. Godfrey, Porter, and McReady aren't journalists. They are puppets with a meaty Bjork hand up their asses moving their mouths to say whatever he wants.

I'm sure the journalism program at UM is just fine. What the diseased minds that go through it do with their education is another story.

Nothing wrong with Blues Theory. I like music.

Due to the way Ole Miss and her alumni have handled the NCAA situation, the University of Mississippi is thought of as a liar with a lack of integrity.

That reputation is damaging to the journalism department because:
- honesty, truthfulness and objectivity are admirable characteristics for a journalist; and
- as an institution, Ole Miss is not currently thought to possess any of these characteristics.

Ever since this thing started, I have been waiting for a real leader to step up at Ole Miss and take charge. It has yet to happen.

(Of course, all of this is just my opinion. I could be completely wrong.)

Jung, you're obviously not who I'm referring to, hence why I included the crazies and you clearly pointed that out.

I can only see the free board, and only the crazies are posting.

Also on the board, Chuck and Yancy appear to be crazies.

Godfrey is becoming a crazy.

Neal is.....flirting with it...

As others have said, who has actually stood up and said, "CUT THE CRAP!"

Show me reasonable voices who officially rep Ole Miss. Unfortunately you aren't one of those.

Think that much of the ire is directed at OM media .. Yancy, McCready, Chuck, DJ, Godfrey (who claims 'not to be an OM fan) .. who have been willful idiots for the OM Admin .. to parrot the 'party line' and add their own 'conspiracy theory of the day' to deflect from what is really going on behind the curtain.

While it may seem 'unfair' to associate those village idiots with the OM School of Journalism, there doesn't seem to be ANY RATIONAL writing coming out of Oxford or ANY that resembles the 'truth.'

Jung .. who do you write for? Can you point to some OM Journalist that are writing about what is really going on in Oxford?

 

[kendesu]

Outside of Steven Godfrey, I don't know where these people went to college. Who else went to Ole Miss? Did Neal McCready?

 

[Beretta.sixpack]

I had no idea UM had a journalism school or engineering school.....

til a few months ago....im 40 and lived in MS all my life and didn't know that....just figured i would have known...

 

[Dawgg]

Technically, Brad Logan is 'wunna ahrs' since he went to State.

McCready is an Ole Miss alum. In fact, per him, he got fired from a previous radio gig for not being 'pro-Alabama' enough.

Huh... I was about to say, "ya know what? Wright Thompson can actually be a helluva good writer," but he's a Mizzou grad, which is probably why.

According to the Alumni site, the only notables since Jimmy Carter left office are Shep Smith and a Clarion Ledger editor:

Acey Roberts is an OM engineering grad. Probably explains his inferiority complex towards State, tbh.

 

[MarkDallas]

Interesting that the associate dean is an MSU grad. I went to his brothers funeral yesterday.

I know that family well. Sad situation.

 

[coach66]

Yes, very sad indeed. John worked for me for several years, I had a lot of

respect for him. Good Bulldog. One has a better chance of being hit by lightning than dying from the circumstances John suffered. Just terrible luck.

That's more fair, but do Godfrey or Chuck or Yancy or Spirit posters officially represent Ole Miss? I don't disagree that there are some awfully stupid, loud, voices trying to defend Ole Miss, or that the people with a big platform who share my feelings on the matter don't appear to be speaking out or being heard if they are. (Some may be, I don't have an exhaustive knowledge of who has said what and when.) However, I don't really know what there is to say right now other than we are in wait and see mode and I personally don't feel good about it. Journalists who rely on the OM administration are in a tough situation because they are getting bad info but don't want to lose their sources. If there are Ole Miss fans in the media covering this story who do not use the administration as a primary source but instead use a source in say, the NCAA, then these reporters, past people posting somewhat anonymously on a message board, also run the risk of alienating their audience. People may not agree with these reasons but they are reasons people will give. Additionally, if the roles were reversed would MSU fans want Steve Robertson playing the role of Steve Robertson?

But my point, which I think you think is fair, is that if thousands of people have something in common, yet a few of them act extremely immaturely while the others do not, then it indicates something those few have in common and not what they have in common with the others. And of course those few are the ones everyone wants to talk about, for good reason.

Yea those three aren't journalists, they're propagandists
