I’m no industry insider, but writing this blog has certainly given me a glimpse into things I didn’t know about our little ski world. Some stuff hasn’t surprised me, and other things have come as a bit of a shock. We all make different assumptions, so I’d like to find out what you’re all thinking.
That brings me to this weekend’s poll– What do you think is the biggest determining factor when a ski media outlet decides what skiers to cover? We’ve all heard and voiced complaints about the exclusivity of the group that gets coverage, but I’m curious to know what you all perceive to be the reason why so many good skiers are left out of the limelight. As always, feel free to add, subtract, or expand on the answers in the comments.
Over the weekend I’m going to try to get some quotes from folks who are or have been at the helm of major ski media outlets, and we’ll see how their perception lines up with yours.
