Frank Deford gave an interview to Referee in which he basically calls for full press access to officials. Anybody have any thoughts on this? Is there really any legitimate reason that officials shouldn't be allowed to talk to members of the general press ever?
Obviously, you don't want an official to seek out the coverage to promote him/herself, but you could deal with those individuals on a case-by-case basis as you needed to.
Any thoughts?
