I find it interesting how different new agencies cover the same story. Take Joe Jones's announcement that he was entering the NBA draft as an example. The most negative coverage, by far, came from the Houston Chronicle. They claim Joe's announcement is an "about-face" spurred by a "drastically" changed A&M basketball landscape. They go on to say that if Jones does leave, it would be "a blow to the new staff." According to these guys, things do not look good.

On the other end is the San Antonio Express. I have to give Brent Z credit here. In my opinion, he usually attempts to get his readers a little rilled up, but not this time. Brent's reaction to Joe's announcement? "Can’t blame him." Just being a part of the pre-draft process "can only help his career" by getting "his name in pro circles". He also expects "to see Jones back in maroon next season – as the undisputed leader." In this article it seems only obvious that Joe would enter the draft then withdraw.

Then you have Fort Worth Star-Telegram who didn't think the story was worth their time and just reran the press release.
