The AJC is a sad little paper

Actually wrote what I thought was a pretty nice article about Willie Anderson and his son (who is a 3-star WR/DB recruit out of Northview HS in the Atlanta area).

Not one mention that Big Willie is an Auburn legend.
Not one mention of Auburn at all. You would think that angle (how intently Willie's alma mater is recruiting his son) would be an interesting part of the story.
But nooooooo... god forbid you mention Auburn. Considering Willie Anderson's path, people might get the idea that you can go to Auburn out of high schools in Atlanta and have great success.
The AJC.

They cater to the market that they know they have. UGA. I can't blame them

They pander to hits, good or bad. online news has devalued the actual news.

AJC is pretty exclusively devoted to Bobbi Kristina coverage, I'm surprised they're letting Mark Bradley do anything but shadow Nick Gordon at this point.

11live last night interviewed someone about Bobbi Kristina and they stated, "I think the whole country is in mourning"

The AJC sucks balls. it has for years ever since the Constitution stopped service as a seperate paper from the Atlanta Journal.
I hate that fricking rag and its the home town paper for me.

I like to imagine the AJC comments sectioners getting into a fight with AL.com comment sectioners. Pretty sure this is how the Apocalypse begins.

Too bad they can't merge the two. Somebody needs to mash-up the comments from the two about the time of the UGA-UA game this year.Posted on 8/2/15 at 11:32 am to beatbammer
Ajc? Let me explain.
The ajc is a poorly run paper with lousy reporters that is forced to cover a blah major town with awful pro sports and a never will achieve anything college sports. Their highest draw is probably the Falcons in a town of transients and a small group of insufferable rednecks who lust over uga football more than uga alumni, which seems to be mostly female.
So they cover traffic. That's the ajc.
