What exactly is a post-intelligencer?
After having watched sports news talk shows for 3 or 4 years now, I’ve developed a subconscious knowledge of the big newspapers in many cities around the US. Can you name a newspaper for the following major cities? There are more than one option in some of these cases, but if you know at least one newspaper for each of these cities, that’s pretty impressive.
Denver
Seattle
Miami
Orlando
Washington D.C.
New York
Boston
Los Angeles
Chicago
Houston
Dallas
Atlanta
Kansas City
Detroit
Philadelphia
You can see my quick list after the break.
Denver Post
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Miami Herald
Orlando Sentinel
Washington Post
New York Times / New York Post
Boston Globe
Los Angeles Times
Chicago Tribune / Chicago Sun-Times
Houston Chronicle
Dallas Morning News
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Kansas City Star
Detroit Free Press
Philadelphia Inquirer
Heh, didn’t even have to look them up. Admittedly, it would be more impressive if I had listed more cities, but I figured that I’d stick to the ones that I could think of off the top of my head (mostly I just chose cities whose teams were in the NBA playoffs with some others that I remembered because they were interesting).
