Sports Media Weekly Podcast No. 52

Southern New England media mogul Keith Thibault and I get together for another edition of our podcast. For our short news segment, Keith and I talk about our favorite baseball announcers both nationally and locally. We also look at the new ESPN Front Row blog which looks at what’s going on at ESPN worldwide. And we also discuss the new ESPN Ombudsman, the Poynter Institute.

Then, Keith had an opportunity to talk with new Providence Journal Red Sox beat writer Tom Britton. Keith discusses his career at MLB.com and the opportunity the Red Sox beat is giving to this young writer. Interesting interview.

You can find it at iTunes under “Sports Media Journal” and don’t forget to subscribe to it so you can download a new edition every time you open your iTunes browser whether it be on your computer or on your smartphone or tablet. But of course, you can always circumvent that process by going here to listen.
