The Times is not sending a reporter to Tulsa

[Mike Stuben]

 

Two weeks in a row the Times are not covering our game with one of their reporters.

Could be a positive.

It's a dying industry. Can't blame them for cutting costs.

One thing that should be clarified. This was a budget decision. The stringer getting paid to cover the USF game represents the most resources the Times is spending on a college football game this weekend. 

This isn't an issue of respect, but simply one of fiscal responsibility. 

If the Times gives USF more resources than the other schools, I can not fault their decision.

That is why I don't subscribe to the paper.  I guess planning ahead and getting a cheap hotel and flight was not worth it.

Mike, I just don't get that.  I'm thinking they could have sent JK for about $700 total (air, hotel and a couple meals)?? What am I missing?  I can't believe the largest newspaper in the number 13 media market in the country wouldn't spend less than a grand to cover the local school who is #23 nationally.

Bought 1 year of the Sunday paper a few months ago....it was like $40.  Wife wanted to.

 

Haven't opened one yet.  Waste.

 

Not because I hate the paper.  Because it's PAPER.
