Thus, I don't expect El Hombre to say anything a bit different than he did. Which is fine, and I am not suggesting Jason has done anything wrong. But playing as if it is a non-corporate COOL GUY position to say "sanctioning bodies can suck it!" when they just-so-happen to be the ones investigating those who are writing your paychecks... Well, it is not exactly a free-wheeling renegade move.

I haven’t seen a lot of Cooksey’s stuff, though, so maybe I am wrong. But the stuff that I have seen sure seems like that.
That is far, FAR more than most of the "moto media" get which typically consists of "How did you feel tonight?" and "What are you looking forward to next weekend?" This guy took a controversial topic and pushed to get a real answer...AND HE GOT IT.
On another note, Ando is a cool mofo.
I took the “suck it” comment to be in reference to the AMA (actually FIM?) not enforcing the track cutting type of stuff consistently.

Nutrition is a volatile corrupt organization.
End game, big business are always going to do anything and everything to win. As long as there is an out for the big business and doesnt affect their brand they dont care how it gets done! It does make you think~
Is aldon just that good, or is "HE/peds" just that good?
I guess the one thing that concerned me in video of Jason was him saying "Aldon didnt like what you said about him in an article" he came to Aldons rescue rather quickly and it was almost robotic in his approach. I guess if im cool with someone and they talked shit about my trainer I would care less! That's their deal....

That's some pretty clear cut stuff, not related to the messenger.
Like the way that Anderson handled it in the video.
1. 0:05 - At the beginning of the video, we have Cooksey asking Jason a question, "...you got cleaned out by Brayton, last week Mookie got you, and you had a ridiculous penalty. What did you think of that?"
-As a journalist he's showing his bias because he qualifies the penalty as being "Ridiculous". A real journalist would have asked how he felt about the penalty without injecting how he feels about the opinion.
2. 1:55 - Jason says, "The AMA can suck it." and Cooksey's response, again biased, says, "I don't disagree."
-His job isn't to agree or disagree. A journalist collects facts and information and shares that information.
3. The title is click-bait even if Jason did say it. You clicked on it didn't you?
Again, I like the line of questions, I don't like the execution. It feels more like he's trying to be buddies with the riders instead of being a professional journalist. It's a fine line for sure in order to get access, but at the end of the day, the media's job is to report not become best buddies. Essentially, all media these days, moto or otherwise, is manipulated into being a marketing tool. You want access, you only publish what we want.
To be clear, I don't see real journalists in moto. Maybe only a couple. Michael Antonovich, GuyB, and Weege. That's about it. And even they get caught up in the TMZ of moto media. Everyone else is just looking for podcast filler and website clicks.
I'm all for calling out the AMA and holding them accountable. A real journalist would ask unbiased questions and allow us to formulate our own opinion.
Hope that clears it up.
