Orlando Sentinel's story about the Super Bowl.
The Orlando Sentinel could somewhat care less about the Super Bowl, and so could I. I am not a football fan at all, but I do enjoy watching the commercials and half-time show. The Sentinel did keep updating the story throughout the game,which score changes and statistics. The Sentinel also had a video from the Associated Press, which focused on the game and the power outage.

The Sentinel did some leading-up to the game coverage. The day before there was a story written about the different places in Orlando that were throwing Super Bowl parties. The Sentinel did not really have a lot to say about the Super Bowl in general. The main story after the game was done by the Baltimore Sun. The story focused on the Raven's season and how Ray Lewis ended his career
with a Super Bowl victory.

Along with the article by the Baltimore Sun, were picture galleries from the game. The pictures
were of the fans celebrating at the actual game in New Orleans, to fans celebrating back in Baltimore. The one thing that was not mentioned at all in the Sentinel's coverage of the Super Bowl was the half-time show. Beyonce put on a great performance and the Sentinel didn't even post a
video of it. They did however write an article about the Puppy Bowl. I thought that Beyonce should have gotten more recognition from the Sentinel because she is such a popular performer and during the performance, Destiny's Child was reunited on stage.

I figured that the Sentinel's coverage was not going to be great. Their team or even a team from
their own state was not in the game, so I think that they decided to sit this one out. With the football season coming to a close, this just means baseball is right around the corner. Here is to warmer weather and the sweet smell of summer coming.
