Message: [QUOTE="LStudfellow, post: 2171108, member: 5436"] I should have separated my two reasons better for you Andre. With that having been said, I have never thought she was a good reporter, or interesting or knowledgeable enough to keep my attention... and that was how I felt well before I was paying attention to her consistent bias against us, I did not think she was a good reporter. Do a quick search on past threads on this and the football forums... there are multiple threads that call Dana out for her biased articles - not isolated to one by any means. And I am by far not the first person to point it out. Here are multiple examples of stories she wrote and a tweet just a few weeks ago. that show her blatant lack of thoroughness or understanding on a story involving us. She decides what her opinion is and her investigation ends... even if she shows an obvious ignorance of the entire situation: 1. Reaction to her biased story (conveniently leaving out the retroactive part of the ban, as so many others who lined up against us but left out key aspects of the case because it weakened her argurment) denegrating us during our appeal of our APR ban - [URL="http://www.theuconnblog.com/2012/2/9/2787973/dana-oneil-read-pat-fordes-column-and-thought-to-herself-i-can-do"]Dana O'Neil read Pat Forde's column and thought to herself 'I can do worse than that'[/URL] 2. This thread relates to her over-the-top belittling of our move of the football program to FBS and subsequent participation in the 2010 Fiesta Bowl. I'm sorry, but a legitimately good reporter does not say snarky, immature things like "Then there's UConn. The Huskies built a football stadium on the side of I-84, won enough games to get to the Fiesta Bowl in 2010 and then attracted approximately 11 people to Arizona for the game." [URL="https://the-boneyard.com/threads/whats-dana-oneils-problem.30065/"]What's Dana O'Neil's problem?[/URL] 3. Her Twitter comparison of this year's National Championship game and ours from 6 years ago. I realize our game against Butler was very ragged (particularly in the first half) but she picks that championship game out? There are more than a few others to choose from, but she randomly picks our game. [MEDIA=twitter]849096660701650949[/MEDIA] This was just a quick, initial search... I can come up with more if you like. [/QUOTE]
