While football in Kansas City had no such obvious connection, today it represents a significant investment in time and money for the paper. The paper appears to employ two reporters to cover the team full time and many other feature writers regularly write on a variety of subjects associated with the Chiefs and professional football. While the TV’s can count on fellow stations in faraway cities to deliver pictures and interviews even when they have no staff there, the paper still holds true to the mantra it’s only true if we say it’s true and the only way we can do that is by having a presence at the games and with the team on a daily basis. In other words, boots on the ground, business as usual.
