Is MSM unhappy with Sandy Alderson?

Does anyone else read a bit of distaste in this tweet? Like Rubin (and likely the rest of mainstream media) is a but upset with Sandy Alderson’s transparency through email (and even social media and webcasts)?

The Mets online push to connect isn’t perfect, but it’s giving the team the ability to leapfrog normal media, and speak without a filter to with fans – and that is probably not sitting very well with MSM.

It’s both the best and worst of social media. The team can speak directly to fans without being checked by MSM’s research, fact-checking and eventually, opinions and columns.

What do you think about the Mets
social media push and how they circumvent MSM?
