I'm not sure we think that people should just be able to come in and copy and essentially duplicate any sort of a press conference and just throw it up on the Internet. There ought to be some journalism involved here.
More Quotes from John Heisler:
After you've been through that O'Leary incident, everyone approaches it with an entirely different mind-set. The good thing about athletics is most of the stuff is easily verified.

Given the level of scrutiny, we've got to be crazy not to get this right. Nobody's going to cut any corners. If it takes another day, or week, to check something out, then it does. Let's not rush this.John Heisler
In a lot of previous cases, we did things more informally. There wasn't this great concern that the information was inaccurate. It just didn't enter your mind.

With these other events, there's a commodity of some sort. We're running a Web site as well, so we would like to drive traffic there. Our feeling is, particularly in terms of a press conference, everybody is welcome to cover it, but if you want to see the full-blown transcription or if you want to watch the whole thing, then our site ought to be the place to find that.
