The
TMZ team, or at least the boss, Harvey Levin, are
huge WWE fans.
You
only have to look at the amount of coverage they offer
the sports entertainment aka pro wrestling powerhouse
on a monthly, if not weekly basis.
We
here at Media
Man Int and Wrestling
News Media are delighted with the ongoing TMZ
coverage of our favorite wrestling promotion.
Just
an observation... over the past year or so TMZ appears
to be running many more PR type and positive news
coverage pieces... which is fine, but we have also
noticed less hard nosed journalism coverage from TMZ
on the sports entertainment powerhouse. That's sometimes
just the nature of the media business. Once a company
gets a little more cozy with a media outlet often
the news stories become a little more watered down.
To
the WWE's credit, they have been running a very tight
ship and have given media companies little ammunition
to throw at them as relates to any negative type news.
Media
Man publicity commends the WWE on their Wellness Program,
and all of the steps that the powers that be take
in looking after wrestlers heath and mental well-being.
Pro
wrestling has had more than their fair share of negative
type news over the years, but because of their real
efforts to improve the lives of their workers they
employ, it appears to be of a much safer environment
than what it was back in the 80's to 90's. Wrestlers
are all to well aware that drugs including pain killers
and drinks don't mix, and wrestlers don't have to
drive themselves so many miles these days, with many
having access to buses. They still travel the world
on frequent basis, but the travel is made a lot easier
for them. WWE is of course protecting their investment
in the talent, but it's also obviously the right thing
to do. WWE is not a baby-sitter, nor should they be.
Hopefully
TMZ will offer up additional positive and balanced
news coverage on the WWE via television, in addition
to their substantial updates on TMZ Sports, online
and the like.
Well
done TMZ and WWE - a match made in heaven.
