2115409, In ESPN's defense, the E is for entertainment

They could have been founded as SPN but clearly they
are in the entertainment business. So maybe we should
dilute our expectations of absolute journalistic integrity from
them. They are in the business of entertaining and they love
to sell a great story.

There's no where else to turn for the type of coverage they
provide in my opinion. It's pretty close to a monopoly.
Sure there's fox sports and the other major networks like
CBS and NBC but really, it's not the same.
