[QUOTE="Rodney Kent, post: 34465, member: 923"] The AJC has been anti-Tech and pro UGA since Dodd left. He had them eating out of his hands because they needed Tech to sell papers for them with Tech's high profile national winning tradition. Since then, the AJC has strictly been against Tech and for UGA. If you browse through the on-line AJC, you will find that the only articles you can read without paying to read them, are articles that show a negative side of news for GT. They want to have free reading for all negative articles so the recruits and Georgia population will not pull for GT. So, the negativism coming from them is nothing new. They are anti-Tech and nothing can be done to change this unless we become huge winner and they need our team to help them sell papers. The biggest disappointment I see are the Tech fans themselves. There should not be one Tech fan who pays for a subscription to the AJC, or pay for reading the on-line articles. Every last Tech fan who pays for a subscription or for on-line articles are helping the AJC in their attempt to show Tech in a negative way. So, all Tech fans who pay for a subscription or on-line articles are also part of the problem.\ Quit taking a subscription or paying for on-line articels and most of the negativity will stop. Even the writer who covers Tech is part of the problemk, he also writes negative articles for free reading. The only way I see that this can be changed is for a booster to set up a web site for GT sports that is not part of the school, yet writes many positive articles each day for Tech athletes and prospective Tech athletes. They like reading about themselves, and would read the articles and be pleased with the site. Also, Tech fans would also visit the site to read the articles. Of course, in this situation, you would not want anyone being able to respond to the articles as negative remarks should not be allowed on this type of sports reporting; we have enough boards for this type of activity. I feel sure some students at Tech or other colleges in the State who are studying journalism would give of their time for the chance to write for this type of web site. I gave up my subscription to the fish wrapper over 40 years ago. I read their on-line articles, but will not pay any money for subscriptions or on-line payments for reading any of their articles.
