Two sides to every story

December 22, 2008, 11:34 pm

Derek Jeter’s Turn 2 Foundation hosted a charity event tonight for 500 students and, interestingly enough, Jeter spoke on Manny Ramirez’s possible future as a Yankee. Of course, journalists have their own perspectives regarding topics of the day and with varying perspectives come varying stories. With that in mind, here’s what we have following Jeter’s conversation with reporters.

  • Kat O’Brien and Bryan Hoch both emphasized the “Jeter thinks Manny would fit with the Yanks” meme, as it has become a big story following the Manny a Yankee report (no confirmation, though).
  • Conversely, Ed Price latched onto a different comment Jeter made and counters with a “Jeter: Yankees don’t need Manny Ramirez” story. Price does note, however, that Jeter thinks Manny could fit in (like the other pieces), although the headline would have you think otherwise.

It’s always fun to see how these guys spin things into stories.
