Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Dawgman.com is who we thought they were

Not a freind of the program. All about access and acting cool.

These last few weeks should have been an eye opener for everyone.

They need their credentials revoked. Simple as that.

    Dawgman has done a great job of playing both the journalist card and fan-club card at whichever moment suits them. They'd respond to your post Damone, by saying their job is not to be a friend of the program, but to be journalists.

    But then if you criticize anyone in the program that gives them access, they'll delete the posts. Which goes back to a lack of journalistic integrity.

    I know they are about as far as journalists as you can get, but i have seen Fetters pull that card in the past.

    I've seen them play both sides (75,000?). Fetters has said they stopped being fans a long time ago, and I have also seen them say we are just fans when they get called out for getting shit wrong.

    Kim and Ecklund have reached a new low since the Petersen hire. They have insulted the intelligence of their customers by pushing an obvious agenda and thinking people won't catch on. Sadly they've been right with about 80% of the customers. The efforts to hide it have been half assed at best, pretty much consisting of one faux sarcasm post from Kim mocking the accusations. Note that these accusations have only come from this site for those who wonder if they read it.

    It has been a total lack of consistency over there, but so many posters are too FS to realize it. As the OP said though, they have recently made it clear (with abundance) that they are no longer a fan-site of UW. They couldn't give a shit about the program, and are therefore the worst group of "journalists" in America.

    Kind of agree. It isn't a journalist's job to be a friend of the program or be a fan, it's their job to accurately report what's going on. The problem, as many have previously stated, is that they try to walk the fence between fans and journalists, cherry picking when they want to walk on each side. It's hypocrisy at it's finest. They claim to be whatever best suits their agenda at that point in time. They don't want to be journalists, because they want people in the program to like them and invite them underneath the table of the corner booth at Joey's, but they use the guise of being journalists to gain access. Really what it comes down to is that they are insecure loosers who just want to be part of the club(think Members Only). I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Petersen completely pull their credentials. Anyone with half a brain can see through their bullshit. They aren't real journalists, and they aren't real fans. They're just a really weird, pathetic cross between the two.

    Then why in Jake's name do you keep reading threads that are clearly about Dawgman?

    Probably because you close and delete all the good threads.
