Brilliant work, guys. You clearly have a fine understanding of journalism. And you guys aren't biased at all, given your obsessive fawning of all things Duke-related and your consistent whining about anything that goes on with Maryland. Isn't it remotely possible that incidents at both Maryland AND Duke are bad? Why does Maryland HAVE to be addressed just because Duke is? Ever think that Duke might be a more salient example in this case because a) Many more people are aware of the "Cameron Crazies" and b) The actions of the Crazies are generally accepted, yet potentially leading to the slippery slope of poor fan behavior, and thus important to highlight?
You guys have become caricatures of yourselves. Every day your whining about some different perceived slight in the media. Every month you are complaining again about Maryland. Why don't you stick to creating a new bulletin board every year or so instead of critiquing things about which you know nothing, like journalism.
Oh, I forgot -- James is a self-proclaimed journalist, because he wrote something about a computer in some tech publication once, or something like that.

Tip: less is better
For example, instead of 'Chris Duhon's ridiculous quotes', just use 'Duhon'. And just type 'Coach K' if you want to see all entries about the Rat.

Coach K and the media -
Coach K doesn't think he has to talk to the media. This article gives many examples of his ridiculous and selfish policies.
He regularly declines to participate in events that promote the sport that made him a multimillionaire, got him a lucrative shoe endorsement deal and gave him a forum to become one of college athletics' most recognizable spokesmen. At this point in his career, he turns down TV interviews, radio interviews, print interviews, sideline interviews and the rest.
Coach K also had a famous incident with Duke's student newspaper - the Chronicle:
In 1990, The Chronicle, Duke's student newspaper, published a midseason report card giving the Blue Devils a B-plus on their basketball performance.
In a meeting with Chronicle staff members that was taped and later excerpted in several publications, Krzyzewski occasionally used profanity in berating the students in front of his team, saying the team deserved straight A's. Later he met with the same students and apologized for the profanity but not the message.
