It's All Relative

Ask any White Sox fan, and you’ll get an earful of complaints about media coverage. For example, today’s Sun-Times has nine pages of football (seven) and basketball (two) before getting around to the Sox, who were rained out against the Astros at home yesterday. And had they played? A headline and photo on the back page with coverage that probably started after the Bears or got sandwiched in between stories. It's interesting, not to mention ironic, that the WNBA Sky, facing off against the Phoenix Mercury for the league championship, actually had their story in ahead of the Sox. In the Tribune, where new ownership is squeezing every last penny, sports is down to six pages, and the Sox rate over the Sky, along with Bears’ coverage that is nothing short of numbing. Go to the Trib website, and it’s worse somehow. You can’t click onto the Sky as a favorite. You either start scrolling down sports’ stories and keep scrolling until you find them, or give up. Candace who? It’s all relative, I guess.
