the media is the last place to cite for possible officiating errors. most of them have degrees (you hope, some of them i'm not so sure) in journalism, most probably didn't play sports past middle school and most of them have definitely never referee'd a game in any sport, and probably don't know half of the rules in said sports. they're writers who investigate and write a story for people to read. just because they cover a sport doesn't mean they necessarily understand the sport. how many journalists do you think covered the super bowl last night? how many of those journalists do you think have actually played a down of football in their life? i'll take a journalist's advice on whether or not a word is a verb or a noun, not if a call is a fumble or an incomplete pass.
