...underachievement",
"Sloppy Cougars hold off Virginia to improve to 4-0"

These are the last few headlines.

kind of a joke.

I'm not seeing Dnews and KSL headlines like that for the U.

SL Trib Headlines This Morning

coolcats

Here are the Des News ...

coolcats

Seems spot on to me.

truecoug1

9/21/14 8:05am

It doesn't matter if it's true. Journalists are supposed to be objective,

Duke Silver

9/21/14 8:18am

journalistic objectivity is a myth that the industry has hid behind for far too

pellegrino

9/21/14 12:15pm

Not really. Objective reporting should be the aim.

'dweller

9/21/14 12:21pm

If the Trib said the Sun was going to rise in the East...

DeepCCoug

9/21/14 3:43pm

Maybe you should consider moving a little further to the North, Pyongyang...

So it goes...

9/21/14 4:26pm

Your opinion and 50 cents...

DeepCCoug

"Good thing for me then, that your book means ugots to me"

'dweller

9/21/14 4:39pm

It doesn't matter if it's true??? So you don't want their headlines to be true?

truecoug1

9/21/14 1:54pm

O Say, What Is Truth?

'dweller

9/21/14 3:31pm

That's how spies were trained to beat lie detector tests, by the way,

'dweller

9/21/14 4:44pm

You don't get it do you? There are positives and negatives from every game. No

Duke Silver

9/21/14 8:51pm

That's why I never look at the friggin Trib.

HighHorse

9/21/14 8:46am

So predictable

NewMexiCoug

9/21/14 9:05am

UVA is arguably the better team too, but they choose a negative

ocmyhome

9/21/14 9:07am

Better than Michigan?

Harrison0Yfan

9/21/14 10:22am

You don't think UVA might be better than Michigan?

mobius

9/21/14 10:27am

I think it is pretty obvious that they are better than Michigan

IrishBlue

9/21/14 10:30am

are you kidding? Michigan is TERRIBLE

macaroni

9/21/14 10:55am

I personally have as many TDs vs P5s as Michigan. Zero.

Anae4Anae

9/21/14 1:26pm

This year UVA is much better than Mich

BostonCougar

9/21/14 2:05pm

Chill guys, I'm not saying Michigan is better than UVA. I couldn't tell whether

Harrison0Yfan

9/21/14 6:03pm

Clearly your question was non-specific too

mobius

9/21/14 6:12pm

Yep, communication fail

Harrison0Yfan

9/22/14 8:31pm

Utah scored two TDs, one was SP. Utah is a solid team, but MICH sucks.

ag4cougs

9/21/14 9:59am

They will eat it all when SC pounds them!!!

SLTrib headline: "Utes shine in moral victory against USC"

Extra Biscuits

9/21/14 11:24am

they will have a shiner all right.

digitalayon

9/21/14 12:54pm

Exactly...or my favorite "Utah Falls Short Against USC"...final score 44-6.

Nut'n'2Say

9/21/14 1:27pm

I wouldn't be surprised if Utah beats USC this year. If so, we'll never hear

BYUflynn

9/21/14 2:47pm

It was so bad, I took a screen shot to post today.

Choke

9/21/14 11:56am

Who cares if SL Trib has a bias?

Rogue Gunner

9/21/14 12:11pm

I don't think it is inappropriate for fans to point out bias against their team

mobius

9/21/14 12:18pm

Yeah, the D News bias is WAY more blatant than the Trib's

fredgarvin

9/21/14 12:56pm

"Utes leave the Big House with a large win, 26-10" --Deseret News

'dweller

9/21/14 1:04pm

OK. All I see are accurate headlines, from both papers.

fredgarvin

9/21/14 1:14pm

You don't get it, then.

'dweller

9/21/14 1:24pm

BYU beat a "Short-Handed Texas" team followed by lackluster Ws vs Houston & UVA

Nut'n'2Say

9/21/14 1:33pm

Jay Drew doesn't write his headlines...

fredgarvin

9/21/14 1:34pm

Jay...is that you? I know he doesn't write the headlines, but he does write...

Nut'n'2Say

9/21/14 1:50pm

From my point of view, YOU don't get it

fredgarvin

9/21/14 1:33pm

Cougarboard doesn't have the facade of an objective newspaper.

'dweller

9/21/14 1:48pm

Other problems with your view of the Trib aside...

PolarisPrime

9/21/14 4:28pm

The Trib is a Salt Lake paper. The U is in Salt Lake.

fredgarvin

9/21/14 7:25pm

It may not be complicated but you have it wrong

PolarisPrime

9/22/14 1:09am

Your problem is you're expecting objectivity.

Rogue Gunner

9/21/14 2:16pm

I'm not expecting objectivity at all actually. That ship has sailed as far as

'dweller

9/21/14 2:22pm

That's the thing about biases

Rogue Gunner

9/21/14 2:32pm

Ok. But there's also the equivalency argument.

'dweller

9/21/14 2:41pm

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Go Cougs!

Rogue Gunner

9/21/14 3:14pm

"BYU is imperfect and undefeated", "BYU's victory over Houston was an underachie

jpv

9/21/14 6:14pm

Are you arguing that the church owned media sources

Rogue Gunner

9/21/14 7:03pm

Glad I don't live in Utah and thus can care less.

Michicoug

9/21/14 12:49pm

Solution: stop buying the Trib and stop clicking on their links.
