— Chris Grenham (@chrisgrenham) February 8, 2019-- The Los Angeles Times is facing criticism for its Super Bowl front page following the Rams’ loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
“Lambs, not Rams”
The front page of today’s @LATimes pic.twitter.com/jzTBqwjBqd
— John McMurtrie (@McMurtrieSF) February 4, 2019On Monday, the paper ran the headline “Lambs, not Rams” on the front page and has been fielding the negative feedback all week.
The LA Times received many letters to the editor, which the paper published, saying the headline was “sophomoric” and “in poor taste.”
Send a Message to our Mayor of Los Angeles @MayorOFLA Who supports the RAMS and let him know how inappropriate todays front page of the TIMES is!
— AZTEC PRIDE (@AzusAPride) February 4, 2019Sports editor Mike Hiserman then responded to the backlash on Twitter.
To @Rams fans who disliked our Section A, Page 1 headline off the Super Bowl: In retrospect, not the best of choices because it could -- and, in some cases, definitely was -- be taken as a cheap shot. Team had a great season.https://t.co/7382CuMNhf
— mike hiserman (@MikeHiserman) February 6, 2019But there are also some who believe there was no issue with the headline.
Rams fans upset over newspaper headline “Lambs, not Rams” after the Rams lost in the Super Bowl... REALLY?!?! They think THAT headline is harsh?!?! Are they also upset for not getting a participation trophy?? https://t.co/TxwlnnrD0h
— James Coata (@jcostaparadise) February 7, 2019Triggered much?https://t.co/qnRAqu6l6A
— Stephen A (@ZeusJuice) February 7, 2019So if you ever wanted to know the difference between the 2 largest markets in the US (LA and NYC) there is a following wanting to boycott the LA Times for the headline “Lambs not Rams”. They’ve obviously never seen the Daily Times on a Monday... pic.twitter.com/lnMA2Ecp9w
— Niner Dad (@NinerDadCards) February 5, 2019QUOTE OF THE DAY: "Right after the season, you can’t make a decision. It’s so emotional, a big win like that. You've got to settle down. You've got to see how your body responds." -- Rob Gronkowski, when asked by Jimmy Fallon about whether or not he will retire before next season
