Everyone has been wondering how Newsday will handle covering the Knicks and Rangers and thus risk being critical of our new bosses.
Then, out of leftfield, comes this from ESPN.com's biggest star, Bill Simmons, who evidently is not bashful about being critical of his bosses.
So here we have Deadspin interviewing the Sports Guy, a meeting of two of the biggest brands in Internet-based sports media.
It's a crazy, mixed up media world out there, and WatchDog is here for you, always ready to slobber over it.
What does ESPN have to say about all this?
"Bill is an exceptional talent with a unique voice that we're proud to bring to fans. In any creative environment that features talented people, there will inevitably be differences. As we have in the past, we'll continue to work through them."
