Yep. Win or lose, the Cowboys will always be a priority for the media. Because love 'em or hate' em, people are always thinking about them. America's Team, indeed.
Thank you for our daily prayer, No Dick.

That's the guy who spent a week (or more, whatever it was) with him a few years ago and exposed the Johnny Walker Blue thing.
So what? The janitor at the old Valley Ranch could have told us all that. This fucker apparently took credit then.

Now this gem:

“In my 35-year journalism career, Jerry Jones stands alone as the most fascinating person I’ve met and covered,” Van Natta says. “The son of a North Little Rock grocer, Jones rose from being a risk-happy, nearly-broke oil wildcatter to become one of the most influential and powerful people in American sports while inventing—and playing by—his own set of rules. I’m thrilled to be writing this book for the folks at Avid Reader Press, who recognize that the best way to tell the story of the National Football League’s astonishing popularity is through the remarkable life story of Jerry Jones.”

That sounds like complete shit.

This has always been a thing with fans and I fail to understand why it is still a thing.

Jones has real power in the NFL and people need just to admit the reality is that some wormy journalist from the DMN or whatever who is earning shit is not going to stand up to one of the richest men on the planet, much less a guy who is a league kingpin.

It is dumb to expect that from anybody in media. They would rather take the other road, which is promote his product.

We can all sit here and bitch to our hearts content. And yeah, the media dorks don't deliver.

But they are bought and paid for and some of them are in an industry that has no future.

Rant off.

Sorry, I disagree. If the majority of them would hold him accountable for the shitty decisions he makes, what would he do? Ban all of them. No way the league would let him get away with that shit. It's almost like he's set up like a dictator and people are afraid to challenge him. Fuck that shit.

Sure, because rival media join together to collectively hang themselves all the time

This is a guy who fucked Jimmy Johnson, his suppose friend, over for two and a half decades because he had been too critical of Jerry.

This guy is powerful and vindictive. They’d all be banned, every last one, and might not get jobs in Dallas or the NFL again.

There’s nothing to be gained for them that hasn’t been covered over and over again.

And in the end, it would only end up drawing more attention to Jerry, which he loves.

Recall, there are pictures of Jerry out there with literal whores. Nothing sticks to this guy.

I don't see any evidence of this ever happening. You wouldn't even have to go Barbara Walter's hard at him. Just don't make every gd question a softball.
I think it's hyperbolic to claim they wouldn't "get jobs again," get off the gas.
Michael Wilbon compared him to a "slave owner." He still works for ESPN.
