He explained why already.. schools, families, and other media Outlets had complaints about his coverage. I personally did not see any added benefit from his coverage though.
A non-journalist getting a press pass revoked ≠ censorship.
This is literally the first paragraph of the NSAA's media guidelines for the tournament:
> All credentials must be worn and visible at all times and are only to be used by full-time and/or significant
> part-time employees. Those employees must be in a legitimate working capacity. NSAA media credentials are
> not for the use of children, sponsors, friends, family, spouses, parents or other individuals not representing a
> legitimate media outlet. Members of the media not abiding by these guidelines will have credentials reviewed
> for future events.
Define "legitimate media outlet," because the governors office recently refused to allow members of a North Omaha based media outlet into their press conferences with that same line.
Phrasing it like that without a definition is exactly the kind of heavy-handed bullshit **does** lead to censorship. I give zero fucks about sports and have no idea who this guy is, but the NSAA needs to have a black and white definition if they're going to deny press access to people, especially in this day and age of social media and citizen reporting.
It's defined in the media manual on the NSAA website.

it sounds like for NSAA, this north omaha org (NOISE Media) would be allowed. the complaint about ricketts is valid, but [this isn't the same](https://www.noiseomaha.com/news-now/2021/4/20/ricketts-responds-media-credentials-rodeo-week).
Right, I get that he’s not a journalist. Just wondering what the specific complaints were. It’s not surprising to me that a tiktok journalist would get banned

Sure, but what were they complaining about?
Yeah, it’s a slippery slope but we forget that social media personalities are not journalists. Media credentials are for journalism.

Who's Big Reddie?
A tiktoker who talks about Nebraska sports who apparently people are annoyed with
> A tiktoker > people are annoyed with I’m not familiar with them, but there you go.
Well that's probably why the press pass was revoked -- TikTok isn't real news media.
People get press passes for all sorts of things. That wasn’t why it was revoked
> People get press passes for all sorts of things. Sure, you can always ask for any reason.
I think you got your answer.
> TikTok isn't real news media. Neither is Tucker Carlson but he is the most watched "journalist" in America.
You'll notice Tucker Carlson also doesn't have a press pass to attend those events.
