Carriker & Dirk leaving OWH

[Dell Husker]

 

[Baron Winnebago]

Not a bad plan after pocketing a couple hundred thousands of fan dollars to leave the state

 

[ChocaEgg]

They probably didn't approve of his shady shenanigans

 

[HuskerDocCo]

that RAT leavin the RAG??!

 

[ThomOsborneMD]

What did he do at the OWH?

 

[Baron Winnebago]

What did he do at the OWH?

I think his Chronicles were somehow affiliated with the bigly failing OWH

 

[1HuskerDad]

The OWH is a shell of what it once was. Bleeding money, cutting staff and cutting the size of the paper. Last one to leave turn off the light please…

 

[Ghost of Devaney]

Gotta wonder if the OWH isn’t distancing themselves. His tweet didn’t emote any gratitude for his affiliation. Hmmm

Warren bought it as a vanity/PR/lobbying machine and killed it.

I was a carrier for 7+ years back in the day, and have a lot of fond memories of what it used to be, but there's nothing left of that but the name.

Dirk has an ownership piece in the new golf course by Gretna doesn’t he?

 

[1HuskerDad]

The OWH and LJS are owned by the same company so I’m sure they’re combining resources to have just one sports staff. Bleeding money from both papers.

There’s no real reason for Nebraska to have two big newspapers. Lincoln and Omaha are close enough to merge into one. They’ll both be dead in 10-15 years anyways

Dirk was one of the few journalists with a backbone to call out the program when it's bad. I'll miss him for that.

DGAF about Carriker and didn't even know he was affiliated with the OWH. Always seemed to me like a former player trying to milk his celebrity.

They could just move to online under one roof.

They could just move to online under one roof.

Only if Sam gets fired and picked up by Sean Callahan.

Imagine that expense report when they travel
