U.S. newspaper coverage of the Paris Olympics

Ron Kroichick also there for the Chronicle.

Salt Lake Tribune sent Julie Jag. And in a stroke of brilliance for all involved, she's also stringing for her last paper, the Santa Cruz Sentinel.

Then there's the BANG papers, which seem content to cover things from home and use AP. But about the only teams I see them on the road with lately are the 49ers and Giants

 

Certainly not the same thing, but their Timberwolves writer was in Las Vegas and did a couple of Timberwolves features, getting Anthony Edwards (he is also authoring a biography of Edwards on the side) from Team USA and also on his teammate Nickeil Alexander Walker (Team Canada).

 

The WaPo is crushing it. Les Carpenter’s takeouts are particularly well researched and written.

 

Norm Stewart, after Les asked about Travis Ford being out for the game and taking fluids: You ever had the shits, Les?

Les: No.

Stewart: You look like you have.

And with that, the postgame news conference ended. TigerVols might be able to confirm.

 

Double Down's takeouts were pretty good too.

 

The OC Register's Scott Reid has bylines from Paris now. He didn't last weekend.

 

BANG does not travel with the Warriors?

 

Add them to the list then.
