TMZ "reporter" ambushes Jon Tisch outside restaurant

bLiTz 2k : 5/16/2021 10:05 am
So this popped up in my news feed, and already seeing shitty click bait articles on it...but basically Tisch (not Steve, the other brother) is being cited as saying that "he's not sure Barkley will be ready for September".

I watched the ambush and it's complete horse shit click bait at it's finest. I know most fans here are aware of just how awful the media is, but garbage like this takes the cake imo.

The guy comes out of a restaurant, and this "reporter" (who sounds like he has a legit brain defect) is asking him if Barkley will be ready for September.

Tisch keeps trying to walk away and says he doesn't know, and even ends the encounter saying that he's in the hotel business and leaves the Giants to the football people.

Not gonna link the articles or the TMZ ambush out of spite, but the fact this is going to make headlines this week just shows how fucking awful sports "journalism" has come.

End rant.

Should I clarify? Most media is comprised of trash and clickbait. Happy?

You do realize that by bringing this up, lots of people here will go to the website to see what happened. So, you probably increased their clickbaits. Maybe that’s what you intended.

Ya got me. You're a genius. If you disagree with the take then say so. I can unequivocally say that you're a tool 👍
LOL - this is not news at all

Either you're following the wrong media or you have an agenda....
Nobody is taking this as gospel. I doubt the sports media even picks

this up. It was pretty much I don’t know, I’m in the hotel business. Does this really bother you that much. I’m sure they’ll be conversations closer to the season how much of a load he’ll have in September.
What does this have to do with sports journalism?

I thought Steve Tisch had that share. Does he just “run” the Tisch shares?
I mean it’s May of course they don’t “know” if he’s going

to be ready week 1. I’m sure they are expecting it in a reduced workload (maybe not even that considering timing of injury). I just don’t get what the issue is here.

That's more of a true statement. He is literally not sure because he isn't close to the situation. It's probably meant to be misleading but the TMZ one added words that tell a different story.
I wouldn't blame ALL media because of what TMZ does

RE: Barkley.

It's not that they couldn't rush him back on the field - but why be aggressive with his recovery? He is a franchise player.

The #1 priority is protecting his longterm playing career, they should be fine without him if they have the proper depth in place. Last year, they were screwed when they lost him and took weeks to recover. By then, the season was largely lost. I don't see them making the same mistake.

His agenda is that someone ambushed Tisch, twisted his words and posted his own version of reality. Yes very much like any brand of media you want in this day and age.

Most ‘media’ isn’t journalism. ‘Most’ media you’re talking about are gossip crap. If people wouldn’t click on them they wouldn’t be doing what you’re complaining about. People don’t want actual journalism, they want voyeuristic ‘reality TV’ crap. How else do you explain the success of shows like ‘Chrisley Knows Best’ and his kid’s spinoff, or the Kardashians. You clicked on the ‘report’ so you are helping support this stuff.
Some of you guys get outraged rather easily

Exactly. I love the Clement signing. Booker and Clement can carry a nice portion of the load while they ease Barkley in. Even when Barkley is healthy the days of them having him out there 90% of the RB snaps is over. It’s not a smart move unless you are talking about a Derrick Henry type.
If Giants are planning  
joeinpa : 5/16/2021 5:24 pm : link
On a healthy Barkley, I believe that is a mistake

The guy runs with reckless abandon, often landing awkwardly. No surprise he s missed so many games. Hard to argue that up to now he warranted a #2 pick.
Yet here's the OP - spreading the nonsense.

Yeah, Steve Tisch is the managing partner of sorts (I don't know the official designation) for the family interest. I'm pretty sure it's the same with John Mara being the one who represents the family interest, but it's not like John Mara personally owns 50% of the Giants. Same with Steve Tisch. At least that's my understanding of it.

This is TMZ.

It's like saying McDonald's is garbage so all restaurants are garbage.

That said, most people just listen to the media that allows them to stroke off to their own biases and call everything else trash.
I watched it and  
Mattman : 5/17/2021 7:46 am : link
it didn't seem like a bad exchange. The reporter was rather respectful and Tisch seemed like a decent guy.

Headlines are written by others. I think op twisted the narrative here.
If you are getting that from the article on Giantswire  
Dinger : 5/17/2021 10:17 am : link
from the usatoday, that site has mostly clickbait and rehashed articles. When I first read the title of your thread (and of the article) I thought this was about John TESCH and was going to skip it. But seeing as how I'm a Connie Sellecca fan, I clicked. Thanks for clearing up who Jon Tisch is for me and for giving me the headsup that this article is garbage and that no one knows what SBs return will look like.
Why does Tisch's opinion matter?  
GeofromNJ : 5/17/2021 10:48 am : link
I don't think the opposition gains an advantage knowing in advance when Barkley will play.
