      ‘Woj’ Leaves ESPN, and a Changed Sports Media, to Join St. Bonaventure

      by

      At ESPN, Adrian Wojnarowski leveraged social media to get the news out quicker. That skill made him rich and famous. He will manage the basketball team at St. Bonaventure University.For years, the sportswriter Adrian Wojnarowski used his sources and his hustle to repeatedly beat the competition on basketball stories big and small. But his drive and deft use of social media also helped change the entire sports journalism landscape.Wojnarowski, who announced Wednesday that he was retiring from ESPN to become general manager of the basketball team at St. Bonaventure University, his alma mater, developed a well-earned reputation for getting professional basketball news first, and then rapidly getting it out to the public, often via a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.When he was first, which was often, and the news was big, it was dubbed a “Woj Bomb.” Other reporters scrambled to confirm the news, then sent out tweets of their own, but crucially only after Wojnarowski’s. Even if he was only 30 seconds faster than the competition, Wojnarowski had his scoop. And because the social media algorithms often prioritize being first, the speed could gain him tens of thousands of extra clicks.The medium was a big part of the message for Wojnarowski. Rather than following the old media model — interacting with an editor, polishing the prose and waiting for publication — Wojnarowski went straight to social media, even if it was just with a sentence reporting that a trade had occurred or that a free agent had signed a contract, to own a story.It made him a star and it made him rich. ESPN paid him millions of dollars.“Scoops are not a new thing,” said Laith Zuraikat, an assistant professor of radio, TV and film at Hofstra University. “But what he did so effectively was take a lot of that traditional journalistic insider work and transition and use Twitter. I’m sure others thought of it, but nobody did it as well as he did. He was the guy.”Far from being an anomaly, Wojnarowski, first at Yahoo and then at ESPN, became a model for many other reporters who embraced his style. ESPN emphasized other accomplished journalists, like Jeff Passan on baseball, Adam Schefter on the N.F.L. and Pete Thamel on college sports, who focused on breaking news that would then drive hours or even days of coverage on the company’s various shows. Other media companies tried to match that lineup with scoop-breakers of their own who could race to share their knowledge on social media.We are having trouble retrieving the article content.Please enable JavaScript in your browser settings.Thank you for your patience while we verify access.

      Frank Warren forced to deny rumours Daniel Dubois has sensationally SPLIT with trainer just hours before Joshua fight

      by

      FRANK WARREN has poured cold water on the rumours that Daniel Dubois’ camp is in crisis and blamed concerns on the flu.Ahead of his heavyweight world title war with 34-year-old Anthony Joshua, respected trainer Don Charles and first-class second Ian Duberry have been absent from the extravagant media events.Don Charles is the head trainer of Daniel DuboisDubois hit the pads with assistant trainer Kieran Farrell in the absence of CharlesCredit: GettyDubois’ promoter Frank Warren insists things are all to plan in Team DuboisCredit: PAJoshua facing off with Dubois – he is hours away from the biggest fight of his careerCredit: Mark Robinson Matchroom BoxingSocial media on Wednesday night was brimming with rumours that coach Charles had sensationally split with the heavyweight fighter. But Dynamite Dan’s promoter has extinguished the fuse and revealed the Pug Gym team is laid low with a nasty dose of the flu and they are wisely shielding their star student.AJ’s trainer Ben Davison has also avoided the limelight at the grand arrivals and the media workouts.But the Harlow trainer has been spotted keeping a low profile on the periphery, which he prefers.READ MORE IN boxing Charles – who has worked wonders in the corner for Dubois in his last two wins over Jarrell Miller and Filip Hrgovic – has not been spotted at all.At Wednesday’s dummy training session for the cameras, AJ shadow boxed with unknown kids from his beloved Finchley ABC.But Dubois got a proper sweat on with a decent pads session with assistant trainer Kieran Farrell.If Charles – who rose to fame as Derek Chisora’s earliest trainer – appears at Thursday’s press conference smelling of vapour rub, then Dubois fans can grow in confidence that their man could spring an upset.Most read in BoxingANTHONY JOSHUA VS DANIEL DUBOIS: All the information you need ahead of huge world title fight at WembleyCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSBut if Dubois cuts a lonely figure again – after already being pulled out of the Peacock Gym and Shane McGuigan’s stable – it will make AJ’s assignment to become a three-time world champion look even easier.When SunSport visited the Pug gym earlier this month and caught a couple of excellent final spars, Dubois raved about his new Borehamwood set-up.Young boxers from Finchley Boxing Club join AJ at the media workout But he made it clear that his father remains the driving – yet for many divisive – force on his career,He told us: “My dad gives me an extra boost We are a partnership and a team, he knows the words that get to me and help me.“When I look over into my corner and he’s there, it gives me that kick up the a***.“It makes me fight even harder, he makes me fight to win, he makes me give it my all.”Joshua vs Dubois fight predictions THIS weekend Wembley will witness one of the biggest all-British fights of all-time.But who will emerge victorious under the famous arch?

He’s still so young but he’s just got it.“Florian Wirtz at Bayer Leverkusen is an amazing player with a really unique style. His numbers from last season were crazy.“As a young kid, putting himself in the Ballon d’Or conversation is rare. He’ll be playing at Real Madrid or Man City in a couple of years. More
