ESPN can no longer claim to be a credible journalistic outlet, its a corporation set to make money. For example- They have an upcoming game between South Carolina and Vanderbilt, Hardly a big game, however PTI, Around the Horn, and Sportscenter all dedicate a large portion of their respective shows to the Vandy-S Car. game. They set the agenda so the viewers believe the game is somehow bigger than it is to garnish attention and viewership. I don't blame them, they have to make money, but it is sickening to see.
