SYRACUSE NY - Greg Robinson will be without a job at the end of the season. Daryl Gross, SU Athletic Director, made the announcement today through a press release. Many people on campus and in the community have been calling for his firing all season. This is by far one of the biggest local stories of the year in Central New York. Which is why it's so disturbing that one of the three local TV stations relied on the Associated Press to cover it for them.
This is a sign of just how bad local news is getting in some markets, where a station is so short-staffed that they can't cover one of the biggest stories of the year in their own market. I don't know if the same is true for this particular station's on air coverage, but the "breaking news" story on their website was attributed to the AP. Even one of the stations in ROCHESTER filed an original story on its website! Hopefully viewers will wise up to this sort of crap and voice their objections by taking their TV remotes and computer mice elsewhere.
