I remember someone was critical of the team and his press credential was pulled. He wrote about it, and then he got it back with the team citing a miscommunication. That was the only mention. If the Bengals pulled credentials on the press, it won't make a blip on the national radar. Brad Johansen was trying to find out how long Marvin's extension was during the infamous press conference. He was suddenly removed from the radio broadcasts. Not a blip on the radar. So softball questions are lobbed so there's some kind of coverage of the team.
Seriously though...we could probably use more guys like that in Cincy media. Mike Brown is a joke of an owner and should be called out more often.
When I lived around Cincy (moved away in 2011), I always noticed how soft the local media is on the Bengals.
Plus, would anyone expect Mike or Marvin to actually answer any hardball questions? They would brush them off and/or giggle to something else.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
