I really don't trust any media.
but its funny because 90% of this thread you will hear "i dont trust the media"....except for when it comes to deflategate. All of a sudden ESPN is the end all, be all when it comes to the biggest hoax of a "scandal" in sports history.

Nope, they have an agenda, I remember when Kobe called ESPN trash like 2 years ago and then ESPN went on a week slandering Kobe with 50 new articles, this company went as far as making random scenarios like saying Paul George doesnt want to play for the Lakers because of Kobe, lol. The only guy I trust is Woj but even he has agenda, I read a story on him that he puts out good articles on players or teams if they give him the scoop.

hell no....only good for live sporting content, and even that you should watch on mute
fox sports
see above (except when Gus is on the call)
Maybe Woj but he has agendas just like all the rest....had hope for them, especially when they broke all the NCAA infraction stories but NOTHING came of any of that (except maybe Miami who got screwed)
bleacher report
they have some writers with promise but I never check their site

Hell no. They tried brush rangers liquidation under the rug and their anti celtic bias is sickening.

shyt is the same in America. They nut hug a couple of teams and players and fukk everyone else. They also have a clear agenda against some players (notice how quick they jumped on greg hardy)

Just don't trust any media on any subject.

Getting your news from the media and trusting them are two wholly separate things.
if you getting your news from them, you have to trust them with that news. You cant say I dont trust the media but I get my news from them.

If you dont trust their insiders and "sources" cool. Id debate that because I see some of the same people in this thread saying they do not trust the media run in to c/s a reporter with their "sources" who says something that supports their world view.

Just because they pulled the wool over your eyes and you accept it... :yeshrug:
they havent pulled any wool over my eyes. Im not a black and white person.

Yes, I tend to trust the media. Not blindly but ESPN, FS1 and Yahoo tend to be accurate with their reporting. If I hear something like a rumor on a blog site I will check to see if one of those three has the story.
