response to amara rockar

    Amara Rockar,

    I’m writing to you to respond to your tweet about us using the Crossing Broad blog as a news source for Jen Howard’s story about the Sixers and Flyers.

    We were not aware of Crossing Broad re-posting that upskirt television screen grab at the time of doing the story. Had we been, we probably would have chosen a different sports blogger or writer.

    In general when choosing a source we read what they have written on the subject, and won’t necessarily read all their blog posting on other topics.
