Joe Davis Still Hasn't Figured Out The Internet E-mail

Just received this email from @RockChalkJBlog, aka Joe Davis, an Associated Press writer, who has committed career suicide, yet doesn't seem to realize/care.

I believe we already have a suspect. It's someone with a user-name of 'Pathetic' and lives in Lawrence if that helps you out, Joe.

And maybe Joe or someone from the AP could explain this from the Associated Press' "News Values and Principals" section?

It means we avoid behavior or activities that create a conflict of interest and compromise our ability to report the news fairly and accurately, uninfluenced by any person or action.

Whoa! That sounds like a violation of AP's values expected of an Associated Press writer when Joe Davis decided to suggest his readers to "attack" Chase Daniel Monday.

And the night goes on...

**UPDATE 5:50a central**

For those of you coming from this story that has most everything incorrect in it, including not seeking out a comment from us (yet does for AP writer, Joe Davis? Hmmm.), here is proof that Joe's Twitter page, @RockChalkJBlog, was in fact, not hacked as he claims it was.

It's laughable that Joe would be corresponding as himself after 6p central time, then change his username/handle as seen in the following just minutes later to @mizzourahblogz...

...and then claimed to have been 'hacked' the entire time. Amazing the levels someone would go to just to avoid apologizing or admitting they were way off base. Well, I guess we'll just wait to hear back from The Associated Press to clarify their News Values and Principles section to see if they encourage their writers to incite readers to "attack" newsmakers, in this case, Chase Daniel.

And how does all this nonsense relate to Mizzou sports? Instead of engaging in a childish witch hunt, why don't you cover Mizzou? I know that is difficult considering how sad athletics is for your school. But do me a favor and try.

I love how you bash us for posting this ridiculous flame war and then go out of your way to try to incite yet another flame war.

Lovely.

@whocares: How is it in Larryville? I'm a little busy planning my bowl trip, so I don't really have time to chat. I'll send you a postcard, ok?

Ehh the Associated Press is probably going to care if that guy really is one of their reporters. They generally don't look too kindly on blatant conflicts of interest.

I'm not trying to incite anything. I was making a general observation by your lack of MU coverage. @Big Head Cool, enjoy your visit to the Independence Bowl. *shrugs* From North titles to going to the lower-tier bowls. Gosh, I'm so jealous. What should I do. Oh I know. I'll go stare at that pretty Orange Bowl trophy.

Anytime beakers hear points from Mizzou fans that they don't like you can count on one of two possible responses: 1. "Well we won the Orange Bowl! BCS!!!!" 2. "Well kU is still better at basketball!!!" Thanks for playing into the stereotype whocares.

And this is actually a Mizzou story. It started with a so-called "journalist" flaming Chase Daniel's Twitter page. Just sayin'.

Or you could look at our other 3,000+ posts, but that's too rough for a kU'er like yourself. Understandable.
As someone else who hasn't figured out the internet...

could you explain all of this?

I can't read any of the screen grabs and because of that, pretty much don't have a clue what you're talking about in the post.

I can respond to this though...

Both teams are still at five wins, right? Just checking.

Really? With a straight face you actually said you'll go stare at that orange bowl trophy?! Unbelievable.

That is like the sports equivalent of a "your mom!" come back. Next time I look forward to your proclamation (it's a fancy way of saying statement) that your dad can beat up my dad.

this guy is the biggest clown ive ever seen on any message board/blog.

Remember, your just an AP person, at least today you might be, once they figure out how much a dbag you are youll be mopping up my p*ss in the stalls at Arrowhead.

How far did KU make it last year in the Tourny btw? And when have they played in the Big12 Football Championship game?


HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
