After reading the Tuesday morning edition of the Shallow Thoughts and Observations by Ted Bartlett (very well done indeed), I had been thinking about some of the "rumors" coming out of this year's draft class. While I am not what I would call a journalist (my journalistic experience consists of primarily one round of being a reporter for my college newspaper) I would say that I generally provide an opinion, good or bad, regarding certain subjects as do most here at the MHR. What concerns me is not the journalistic integrity of the MHR, I think that it has been very fair in addressing rumors as rumors and reporting stories generated by others, what concerns me more is that in general the blogsphere doesn't look more closely at the sources of rumors concerning the potential draft picks and their motives.
