So, now the University can cover up bad mistakes, write their own stories protecting certain people, and make their fans believe what they say because they said it. By giving IMG the only media direct access to the program the University of Arkansas has effectively shut out any and all 3rd party reporting coming from the athletic program.

They will be able to control and manipulate all stories coming from the program. This only benefits one person and his mission to cut off all truthful reporting from the University of Arkansas athletic program. Not only that they will be able to cover and control all written articles dealing with the athletic programs. Its budgets and how it spends its money. Guess Long knew the storm was coming and is protecting his assets. It is a sad state when your own football program is shut off from local media coverage and manipulates its own stories. Not only does IMG and the University of Arkansas write the stories they are the story teller able to tell whatever they want told whether it happens to be the truth or not.

Poor Arkansas media is going to have to actual work for stories instead of being spoon fed. Maybe people will actually realize how terrible and lazy our instate media is these days.

You are not smart.

Its actually a driver to their online media content. If its exclusive, more people visit and pay for it.

Our athletic department is managed very well from a $ standpoint. This is another way to increase the value of the contract with IMG, and bring in more $.

The local sports media (from your posts, probably including some people you know and/or admire) are going to wail and moan about this like a bunch of crybabies. Most of them are worthless hacks anyway.
