Two Profiles in Courage --- Sports Journalists
I apologize if this has been posted. I know a lot of people get understandably exercised over the poor job being done by journalists. Why couldn't Wolf ask Allen about spending time with his white supremacist pals?

However, I have always been impressed by sports jornos. My two favorites are K.O. and Bob Costas. It looks like to other sports reporters are about to do 18 months in the clink while standing up for journalistic principles.

Show the some love by writing letters of support or outrage --- depending on you audience.
