We're back here in the Summertime with another edition of the show with sports media takes, news, and info on the "LWOS Media Podcast."
Host T.J. Rives gives his thoughts on:
Amazing World Cup Final won by Spain (in a less than thrilling 1-0 game) over Argentina and was this the last World Cup for Fox Sports, as the deal with FIFA has expired? If so, they did an amazing job covering the drama and there's ratings success to also to tout.
Then, he talks the Friday night real time TV coverage by USA Network and Golf Channel of Bryson DeChambeau's "meltdown" over a two stroke penalty at the Open Championship. It was "tremendous TV" and even with a dramatic win on the final hole Sunday by New Zealand's Ryan Fox, DeChambeau overshadowed it all. T.J. has takes.
And, then the unfortunate latest rounds of ESPN firings and non-renewals (don't call them layoffs) that took place this week, where anchor/play by play man Karl Ravetch is the biggest name to be ousted after 33 years with the network, but NFL analyst Ryan Clark is the most controversial and polarizing. We go over over it all and the outstanding journalism by Bobby Burack of Outkick.com to have the story and then, how petty ESPN PR acted to delay him comment and then leak the story to others.
We go over a bunch on the "LWOS Media Podcast" and make sure to follow/subscribe on Apple/Spreaker/Spotify, etc.!
