SportsPro editorial director James Emmett is joined by the man behind the Unofficial Partner blog, Richard Gillis, AP sports reporter Rob Harris, and psychologist, author and former NBA player John Amaechi. The quartet serve up the usual heady cocktail of scandal and strife; Harris receives two emails - LIVE! - one from banned Fifa general secretary Jerome Valcke's lawyer, and the other from the organisers of the London 2017 world athletics championships, which recently accepted the resignation of its managing director, Sally Bolton. Amaechi and Harris clash on the efficacy and validity of internal ethics bodies; Gillis reveals his love/hate relationship with 'new logo stories'; and Amaechi sparks a discussion on the dumbing down and whittling away of traditional media by calling basketball fans in the UK stupid. It's a good one. |
