Stephen A. Smith (left) and John Grogan "have both hit the jackpot in other realms and could care less about what they write for the paper," writes Buzz Bissinger, a former Inky staffer. "They both mail their columns in now. Smith is preoccupied with his ESPN show and is apparently never in the city he allegedly covers. Grogan is mired in the gooey syrup that made 'Marley and Me' such a hit and has never shown any knowledge of the region whatsoever. Neither deserve jobs at the Inquirer as it so desperately struggles, nor do they need the money." (Low in comments section.) || Inky media reporter Joseph DiStefano responds: "You're not just nasty-jealous, you're also outta touch (and outta town) if you don't see the value Smith and Grogan still bring to this newspaper." DiStefano mentions that he's leaving the paper.
