I've seen Bamers post links to "TNews" and Mobile Register about what they are saying about Bama/Auburn crap.
to answer you directly:
DO I READ THE TNews daily, NO.
compare to you living there.
Have i seen some linked articles from there on here, yes.
Especially since Nick was hired and Bamers all of sudden showed up on this site a year ago.
So I have some idea of the reporting but it seems majority of the publications in bama are dilusional reporting equally to Finnescum. Entertainment > Credibility.
Keep in mind, I have in-laws in Mobile and occasionally read that paper, it seems equivalent to TNews in my opinion. Small town with small town reporters/journalists.

I don't read the Mobile paper so I don't know what it says. And Finebaum is not news; it is entertainment. That would be like watching the Colbert Report and claiming that was your daily news. Finebaum is a great show once you learn to appreciate it for what it is. Paul is a frickin' genius for creating the show he's got.

But the TNews is pretty fair when it comes to its coverage of Alabama football. Cecil Hurt is critical at times, sometimes very critical. Now, you will never read something like, "Alabama sucks and will never win anything" which is what a lot of you guys want to see. Now I will admit the full section rehash of the 25th anniversary of Bear's death this past weekend was a bit much but I guess they figured that would be a big seller, and I'm sure it was.
