[QUOTE="Augusta_Jacket, post: 965634, member: 1191"] It's better to say that a stringer isn't generally going to go out of their way to harm the relationship between them and the GTAA since they rely on the GTAA for sources on stories. Homerism, to a point, is expected, not only to keep a good relationship with GT, but to placate the subscribers that want to read (generally positive) stories about their team. I have met Ken personally several times over the years. He has stopped by my tailgate more than once while he was covering GT sports. There's not a more unbiased person reporting at the AJC than Ken. He may report something we might not like from time to time, but he doesn't generally let feelings intrude. Edit to add an example: Ken recently wrote a very good column on the possibility that uga might not even make the playoffs this year. The uga stringers can't write that article, the general reporters and columnists can. [/QUOTE]
