It should come as no surprise that this is a Tegna station…

The job of a TV Sports Anchor is to cover the sports news.

But, obviously, KPNX (Phoenix) Sports Anchor Cameron Cox believes in being a cheerleader and not a sports journalist.

The Arizona Diamondbacks are in the World Series, and one of their players, Christian Walker is in a bad batting slump.

You would think that a Sports Journalist might question the manager of the team about how he is going to handle this problem. Is it going to pull Walker from the lineup?

That is not what Cox did….he got out his pompoms instead.

This is not journalism.

Be better.
