Seasons1992 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) Let's hope they beat the living hell out of Washington and more importantly, figure out what works with the people they have for the rest of the season.

Gugny Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Does anyone think that the Bills organization will EVER hire an audio/video person who can properly produce one of these goddamn press conferences?????? Is it really that hard????? Why is it an unreasonable expectation to be able to hear the QUESTIONS and not just the answers???? Outraged. 2 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JESSEFEFFER Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 This was pointed out awhile back that the question askers like it that way because they feel like it's "theirs." I have a hard time with that because it seems more like it's ultimately for the fans and hearing answers without the context of the questions is at the least, irritating.

It's a ridiculous setup and I'm not sure any other teams do it like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'm sure this is exactly the reason. Even when it was the same before he came here. He's probably responsible for world hunger as well. 32 minutes ago, Seven-N-Nine said: It's a ridiculous setup and I'm not sure any other teams do it like this. Go watch press conferences from other teams. It is pretty much the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way they'd care is if they could charge people to watch them, then for sure the sound would be up to snuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really not even that hard. From years of moderating sessions at various conferences, the moderator (or the speaker) leads off by repeating the question. "The question was...." and then answer. The challenge there is that a lot of our reporters tend to expatiate a while and it can be challenging to figure out "just what is your question?"

I've noticed that in general these days, reporters seem to want to set the stage before they even ask their question, or they just want to lecture the person they are supposedly asking a question of. It's highly annoying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can hear some questions better than others because of where the reporter is positioned in relation to whoever is at the podium. However, to correct the issue, I think they would have to set up microphones for everyone. You would think it could be done and has had to have been discussed; however, there must be some downside to it for it not to have been corrected. It is annoying.

Or, just have ushers with wireless mics, which they can hand to reporters just before they ask their questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drawback of the mic thing is that the questions get selected through the choices made by the mic carrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone here (might have been you) mentioned a while back that Patriots pressers are run like a dream. Reporters are professional. Audio/video quality is excellent. Just run like a well-oiled machine. These Bills pressers seem like they're run by high school students. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
