I'm sorry, did you just really compare JKC to Snyder? Cooke was beloved by the fans because of his good nature (may have been a ass to his family) and left a good portion of his inheritance to his foundation to help kids with scholarships. Just curious, do you see Snyder doing such a thing? Yeah, neither do I so lets not compare apples to oranges. You mentioned a TV show. I think that's a bit different than a newspaper blog. Wouldn't you agree? To answer your question, if JKC had done the things that Snyder has, he'd definitely be considered a punk ass bitch.

First of all, I said John Kent Cooke, not Jack. And secondly, in today's era a Sunday night TV show on local news is not much different from a daily blog and video webcast in a newspaper. It's kind of funny though it's ok to be an ass to your family, it seems.

So because a writer states a asinine opinion on something, that invalidates anything else he writes? Really? I think his stupidity in calling Shanahan racist has absolutely no bearing on his account with Dan Snyder. The fact you are playing the straw man bit doesn't bode well your retort.

Fine

Bud Selig isn't looked at as a owner. He's a commissioner. I said owners. Name me one other owner that has the type of PR problem that Sndyer has with the media. Selig will also go down as MLBs worst commissioner ever. Not something I would hang my hat on.

Donald Sterling? Either way, Snyder's problem is due to as much to public ignorance than anything else, in my opinion.

I'm sure there are tons we haven't heard about. Do you read McKenna's work? The man clearly has a agenda, but his articles are informative and backed up with fact.

Not always fact, or it's not always entirely factual. But that's another debate for another day-which I've already had

No, this was the follow up article after Snyder caught shit tons of flack for this encounter. This wasn't some "misunderstanding" that happened. This was Dan Snyder bullying the competing stations. See example below.
The King of Pay-to-Play Broadcasting: George Michael was ahead of his time. - Washington City Paper
You act like this is the first time he's shit on the opposing media firms that didn't hand over money to him. No, there is no misunderstanding. It was WJLA (notified by her husband) that came to the Redskins to do the story, and he banned them and got his crew in to cover the story.
That doesn't sound like a misunderstanding. That sounds like a person directed by a PR department (and most likely Synder doing).
I guess many of these other things listed up on this article are "misunderstandings" as well?

Fine...but I've been that person (not Rene Knott, mind you) reporting from the parking lot..and it was long before Snyder stepped foot in Redskins Park

Listen, let's not go that "But whatever, Snyder caused the mess in Iraq..." route. It's petty, much like Danny boy is. I don't blame Dan for anything that he's isn't responsible for. I don't blame Danny for the world being the way it is or anything outside his realm. I hold people accountable based on their actions and so far, he's failed miserably and continues down that same path.
As I said before, I'm not as upset at this move as some of his others, but considering his standing in the community/media, it was best to not say anything. That is the best thing Danny boy can do at this point. If he wants to make a name for himself, how about he ship that jet over to japan loaded with supplies and crews to help with the search for missing people. Now THAT is something I want to see from Dan, and something I'll applaud. You have to wonder why in the hell did he hire Tony Wyllie because these latest PR moves have been horrible. Oh yeah, so he can have somebody else to blame for his blunders.

Send supplies? Like when he did this?
