The thing about Hogville is that they delete and ban so many posts and posters with dissenting viewpoints that you are left with a board in which it looks like this online representation of Razorback fans are all in agreement. They are not.
Hogville operates like the old days of Mother Russia. Got something to say that we don't like? Your voice disappears from our site. The guy who owns the site will get on KARN and claim that "the great thing about Hogville is that we allow all viewpoints," but it is pure BS.
Public opinion does not equal what you read on Hogville.
What's worse are the broadcast journalists who sell out to Hogville because they think they are getting an audience, or in some cases a following. Mike Erwin and Mark Lericos, two NWA TV guys you have never heard of otherwise, might as well be writing quotes for Long and Petrino on the UA dole. They come off as nothing more than PR flaks for the UA. Erwin has particularly taken broadcast journalism to a new low in this state in the last year.
Another sellout looking for attention from these freaks is Shawn Arnell, who sounds like he knows radio and could be a good talk-show host if only he wasn't longing for the attention of this group of wackos. Shawn, other people listen to your show besides Hogville readers, and they aren't happy with what you and Wally have done in the last year.
Wes Moore, please be careful. So far your posts there have remained typically just to promote your newscast, which you do a fine job on. But when I see you have thrown up an ad on that site, well it makes me not want to tune in anymore.
Razorback football may be over for another decade thanks to the false perception of public opinion pushed upon the state by Hogville, some members of the Razorback press clique, and some whining parents from NWA upset that Little Johnny didn't get to play throw and catch like he did in high school.
Well fans, you've got your wish -- the University of Arkansas finally has the passing offense you've cried about. Unfortunately, half the fans in the stadium on Saturday don't like the losing ways that have come with it. Neither do half the fans in the state.
