Tim Wulfemeyer Quotes on Business & Commerce (3 Quotes)

With the intrusion, and maybe rightly so, of legal concerns, medical concerns, business concerns, maybe some of that might be changing sports journalism a little bit - and maybe should change. The sports reporters of today - the good ones, anyway, working for good news organizations - shouldn't be held to any less stringent professional and ethical standards than any other journalist.

But sadly, the grim realities of life have started intruding into the fun and games - as is true in other areas, for example, the entertainment business, music, art, TV programming, movies. It's the same kind of issue for reporters in those areas. Entertainment reporters operated with some different standards as well up until fairly recently.

Now the playing field is getting leveled for all reporters. If you're a sports reporter, you're very likely to be covering legal, ethical, business, health issues - as often as your colleague covering the courts or city government or the political beat.
