The fact that it's a public position is going to get a bunch of attention and that it like escalated into a more and more salacious version of the story.

And I think this is funny dovetailing off of the journalism conversation is because like this is part of the reason why like real journalism is important.

because there's so much speculation out there about what's happening.

And it's so damaging to the people that are not even directly involved, but tangentially involved.

And of course it's damaging to the people that are involved, especially like the staffer whose name is in it, the kids who may be involved, the wife that's in it.

Like this is all just stuff that we do on the internet in an age where I know to go back into a different conversation from a couple of days ago,

where the AI does so many more things that it just feels like nothing feels true.

And so if there is someone out there or a group of people who have built up the credibility that we can trust what they are saying, like that holds value.

It used to be at one point that the checkmark on Twitter meant something.

It meant nothing else anymore.

And one thing that you can't really fake is a person's identity.

And if there is someone that has put in the work and done the hours and taken the time away from their family to build up

a track record of credible reporting inside sports like that's hugely valuable.

And it's funny because I would say in a time like today, it's a reminder how important that journalism is.

But like, honestly, every single day, every week, there's a new reason why the journalism is valuable.

We can go back to the college football playoffs.

I would love if there were somebody who was available and that was steeped in college football, but didn't have their interests conflicted by not wanting to piss people off or not wanting to upset the TV partner or not wanting to lose their access, but would be willing to burn relationships to tell us what actually is discussed behind those closed doors.

Like all of all of sports and all of.

Professional life needs that type of journalism.

Yeah, I mean...
