Not how journalism works. Both questions in this clip were completely reasonable and had not been addressed. And there are more. Dan is within his right to decline to answer, but to suggest reporters shouldn't inquire is nonsense.

Replying to @billoram
There's been plenty of talk about Dante since Saturday. There's been multiple updates. He still has a job to do. There's plenty of things reporters could be asking about. Move along.

Watching it in real time even more surreal and sickening. Whistle blew just as ambulance disappeared in the tunnel.

That was some kind of shot from NBC: Oregon players walking up to the line as the ambulance drove out of view.

The Oregon ethics commission today dismissed a complaint against its director, Susan Myers. An outside investigator found that Myers had no conflict of interest that she was required to report when she reviewed a complaint against another commissioner. statesmanjournal.com/story/n…

The decline of the @mcclatchy newspaper chain is particularly dark and dramatic. Once a beacon of community-focused, quality journalism, its outlets are becoming empty shells of AI-produced drivel. Shame on its vulture capitalist owners, Chatham Asset Management. lpm.org/news/2026-09-10/mccl…

I’ve never seen anything like this… This ump stopped the game & made Cardinals rookie Hancel Rincon straighten his hat, saying nobody will wear it like that on his field. Quickly followed up by the worst revenge call I’ve ever seen. Suspend him now @MLB

Tom Dundon should spend real time in Portland before deciding it doesn't deserve an NBA team. To understand the city he's trying to bleed dry, I would have suggested being at Timbers-Sounders. Column: oregonlive.com/sports/2026/0…

Tom Dundon needs to see Portland at its best. He should start at a Timbers game | Bill Oram

If the new Trail Blazers owner had any interest in understanding the city with which he is at odds, there would have been no better place than Saturday's Timbers game.

Instead of addressing concerns with a narrow tweak, a bill is advancing in Salem that would do major damage to a key open-government law, per the top state official in charge of it. @SPJOregon, @OPB and others oppose: #orleg #orpol #foi oregonlive.com/politics/2026…. #oregonleg

Bill could enable secret government talks, Oregon ethics chief warns

A section that would provide broad exceptions to the public meetings law 'gives me heartburn,' said Susan Myers, executive director of the Oregon Government Ethics Commission.
