Continuing our annual tradition at AA, we welcome Sports Illustrated media scribe Richard Deitsch for your special 2014 Year in Review podcast. We chat about the biggest sports and media stories of the year (including Darren Rovell blocking him on Twitter, naturally). Topics include...
- How the media handled the massive NFL stories this year of Michael Sam's coming out and the domestic violence crisis.
- ESPN's year in journalism for good (Don Van Natta/OTL) and bad (ESPN & Media Reports)
- The Bill Simmons suspension and what might be in the future of The Sports Guy.
- Did 2014 represent progress for women in sports media?
- Did Twitter take a turn to the dark side in 2014? Richard and I are in agreement on this one.
- Gus Johnson's soccer experiment coming to an end and Fox taking the World Cup baton from ESPN.
- The current state of Fox Sports 1 and NBCSN.
- A rundown of RD's Media Awards including Doc Emrick as his person of the year.
All that and a lot more on our 2014 Year in Review special. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
