November 3, 2009 | Yesterday's News | Leave your thoughts!

In addition to news outlets nationwide, both the St. Pete Times website, the 10connects newscast, and 10connects.com ran with an incorrect story about the Buccaneers’ finances first “reported” by WDAE’s Dan Sileo, who has since been suspended for his actions.

Remember – trust your mainstream media.  Blogs are run by people with no journalistic ethics training whatsoever.
