The Athletic represents a different model for covering sport at a time when the consumption of American sports has changed
“Is it an extension of the cultural department? Is it entertainment? Or is it an aspect of news and American life that we should be covering seriously?”
“Which is a long way of saying: these things happen. Media evolves. The bigger question is: are we going to get the type of sports coverage that the New York Times sports department has been providing for years and doing an incredible job? I would check it three or four times a day because there was such a volume of high-quality content looking at sport from all the angles – politics, gender, violence. I think there is a lot better enterprising sports sociology journalism being done now.
