Default Re: CBS columnist bashes gambling, WSOP

I wrote a big response to him about the lack of balance and completely biased point of view, as well as his total lack of knowledge of the subject he was writing about. Everyone playing high stakes is addicted or stupid? Then I wrote CBS, tricky to find email, this is it

http://www.sportsline.com/help/contactus

included letter to Greg, said how could they exercise such poor editorial oversight, to let a completely biased, one-sided hit piece with no-understanding of it's subject, and only one hazy statistic with no citation to support the main claim of the piece, that most of us are crazy addicts, and none of us are long-run profitable. That this was most disappointing as the piece was next to another on "How to become a pro", and it is those types of pieces that give kids that wrong kind of idea about how easy it is. There is also a king of blog, but they only seem to put up comment about how great they are, so I didn't bother.
