Yesterday, I wrote at length about the media coverage of the New Jersey Devils in its current state. I went into some detail about how we got to where we are. In general, I think the coverage is quite good between team-independent, team-provided, and fan-driven sources for news and analysis. I did not go into the the broadcasts because they deserve special focus.
They are media in terms of providing the game, commentary, and initial reactions to what will or has happened. They are providing information to an audience. The broadcasts, on purpose or otherwise, reflect how the organization is presented.
