Lazy Googling in the Media

Recommended Posts

Today SI posted their big piece on the Mavs’ front office. One problem...

 

And then back when the NFL Playoffs began, we had this gem with one concept logo and three throwbacks.

 

So, let this thread serve as a depository of all the times that newsroom interns blindly copy the first Google image hit that they run across.

ESPN's playoff machine uses the old Jaguars, Dolphins, and possibly the Bucs and Panthers logos in the selection area when a team has lost a game. I can't imagine anybody but me has ever noticed it, but it's there.

I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!

You are absolutely right; along with the Vikings, Rams, and Lions. It appears that they never bother to change the grayed out logos file.

Dare I say that the Lakers logo there is superior to the actual Lakers logo? ;) 

 

You dare . . . because it is vastly superior to the real thing.
