More on sports blogging

In another post, I was talking about sports bloggers getting press credentials to sporting events. The latest twist on this, is an "official" sports reporter who was blogging from a college baseball game and was ejected from the press box for doing so. The N.C.A.A. said it did this because it doesn't want reporters blogging about game action - however, reporters "may blog about the atmosphere, crowd and other details during a game." Now The Courier-Journal of Louisville, Ky is thinking of suing the N.C.A.A. This will be an interesting case - there are lots of elements to it - the biggest one is television contracts and who has the right to report live game action. And you can read much more on this over at Sports Law Blog here and here
