Breaking news is whatever Bernstein tells them it is.

NO

It's front page on the Tribune Camps.

I knew the new "YOU" was too good to be true.

And I knew "RPB" couldn't stay away too long.

Then at 4 PM it is not BREAKING NEWS

Usually I love it when Dan goes hard against incompetent and/or evil college sports programs, but I'm really not feelin' this one.

I did see the example of one girl who had high grades in HS and when her parents came to get her she had acne and was 15 pounds overweight...I believe this was the example given by one parent? And Maybe the coach didnt help her complex issues...but they didnt make up the term "Freshman 15" out of nowhere! What do you think happens when kids who had dinner prepared for them all their lives now have pizza 3-4 times a week and hang out in dorm rooms drinking and smoking???

Once again, its just a guess....and the issue needs to be looked into.....just dont see this as the crisis some are trying to make it, as if the entire program is running under some mandate of working kids to death.

College is when I figured out that I love cooking.

I think the difference between this and the Penn State coverage is that he hasn't really gone deep into what the school did. With Penn State, he spent a lot of time breaking down what went on -- some would say too much. With this Illinois scandal, he's just assuming that everyone knows what went down and everyone is outraged. In short, he's just been shouting "PEOPLE NEED TO BE FIRED" over and over and expecting it to have some sort of resonance with listeners.

To wit, I just googled "illinois basketball scandal" and the top results are all about Bruce Pearl.

Did you find it strange that when Mike Thomas went on Mully and Hanley and made an ass of himself, Dan didn't say anything about Mully and Hanley asking the questions that led Thomas to sound like an idiot? It was just HE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON THE RADIO THIS IS BAD CRISIS MANAGEMENT over and over. Should he have been on the radio? Probably not, but it was pretty cool that your station got him on and gave him enough rope to hang himself.

I always get pissed too when a station I don't listen to is advertising non breaking news as breaking news.

No love between Bernstein and M&H.

When Dan was making up his crap about firing Trestman ....as if it was a done deal, they wouldnt report it. They wouldnt even allow it reported on their show.

They said if Bernstein wants to report it , he can show up and announce it. He did.

He is really disliked there....and he knows it.

Thus you get nothing cool coming out of the station....like Macs golf outing. or any event. Cant when the guy they use as the face of the station is a prick...

Back in the golden age of the station, the main people hung out with each other. North would host get togethers. You think Dan is hosting anyone at his subdivision in the city?

Dan tried having Scrabble Night with Jason, Drinky, and Ten Foot Midget, but Jason no-showed because brothers don't play Scrabble, Drinky left when AAAAAAAAH wasn't a legal word, and Baffoe left because he didn't feel appreciated enough.

no one who hasn't worked on the show attends Dan's events. I think the young guys at the station used to hang out with each other. Back in the golden age of the station, the main people hung out with each other. North would host get togethers. You think Dan is hosting anyone at his subdivision in the city?

Bernstein is more disliked around that station than you would think.

I have no idea about how Mitch feels about him, but I would guess if the truth ever came out, there would be zero love for him.
