The opinions sports fans formulate are
often influenced by the portrayal of those deemed closest to
the action. In particular, the casual fans perceptions of their
favorite team can be quite distorted if nuanced bias seeps into
the media’s reporting. Furthermore, even keen sports followers
must stay alert when media members are more interested in promotion
than objective reporting and analysis.
Have you ever felt a disconnect between the results on the field,
court, or rink and how the Twin Cities sports “media” often
portrays those results?
Be it local sports news broadcasters, talk radio personalities,
newspaper columnists, game day play by play and color commentary
personnel, or post game interviewers, how many in this market
really take an objective approach to their efforts?
As the lines between sports journalism and ad hoc sports entertainment
continue to blur, it is important to understand the background
and motives of the people who offer up news, commentary, and
opinion related to the Twin Cities sports scene.
We hope WWW.HOMERSOTA.COM helps bring context and clarity to
what sports fans are seeing, hearing, and reading in the Twin
Cities while having a few laughs.
