Reporters, instead of cagily writing their stories in an attempt to cover up their prejudices, will be able to freely write what is on their conscience. I am no student of journalism. I have no interest in taking any course in the field. Writing and thinking clearly cannot be taught in school if one is incapable of doing so naturally. And that is all journalism is about.
Sports journalism is pretty simple.
Just give us the box scores and we are happy. If you want to write like Grant Rice, just make sure you have a big thesaurus so that you can find 50 synonyms for the deep green gridiron. Besides that, there is not much need for creativity. Objectivity is pretty easy to come by. The final score doesn't lie, doesn't need interpretation.
