Breaking Sipple and Parker out at the LJS

[alt f4]

Do newspaper people not make much these days? I am just wondering what the attraction would be to switch to 247, on3 etc.? Having to hassle teenagers to give you the time of day to discuss whether they liked their visit and who is in their top 20 seems like a special kind of hell

Hardly. This is Sipple's house...

Is Sipple the one who got caught jerking off under a towel at the strip club?

Sip lives across from a school? Let’s hope he didn’t have Brian Rosenthal over for game night too often.

I hope everybody ITT realizes that most college football teams have writers that are way way more bias and homerish than Sipple

In “college towns” the local paper is literally just the college’s Pravda.

Now I wouldn’t call Lincoln a college town, but the Journal Star is like 2 blocks from UNL and it makes no sense for the journal star to be in open conflict with the most popular and newsworthy thing in the entire State. (including politics, ex: the State cares way more about next year’s football season than they do the Governor race and it’s not even close)



2 quick semi-close examples of where bias and hometown coverage is way worse than the LJS are Manhattan KS and Lawrence KS. If you want more extreme examples further away look at the media that covers the local college in Texas or the entire South. Sipple and the LJS aren’t even close to that level.


Not a full defense of Sipple’s drunk ass but I do think he gets shit on way too hard by the message boards for doing what “journalism” has become the past 20 years. (sports and political coverage)

Yep.
