The act of observing changes things (and not just in quantum physics!). Especially with Jordan and his inner circle (who have every reason to make him look good), you have to wonder how close their behaviour with Thompson around is to how they'd act if he wasn't there. (Doesn't make Thompson's piece bad or deceptive or anything, but I just don't think it's possible to ever really get a completely true portrait of how people act without being observed.)

Anonymity's an interesting related debate, too; there are times in my mind when there are good reasons to keep sources anonymous (and they can add to a story), but there are also plenty of times when there's no good rationale for an anonymous comment to be included. My general stance is to take things case-by-case; sometimes the inside access is awesome, sometimes the anonymous quotes are great, but there are plenty of other times where you can get excellent stuff without relying on either.Andrew Bucholtzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156615450275929751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33290030.post-25105804648979293532013-02-16T14:37:51.716-08:002013-02-16T14:37:51.716-08:00Solid article, Andrew.

As you said, lack of firsthand access often forces authors to critically assess the subject, develop an appropriate narrative, and then find supporting resources to deliver the story. For some reason, sports journalism seems to be more noticeable when it comes to "inside access" because of the prevalence in anonymous sources, most specifically. Of course, the reality of the situation is that sources without a name is not the exclusive domain of sports, nor is it absolutely essential in presenting factually correct sharing of information. <br /><br />I always find David Halberstam usage of "inside access" to be slightly off-putting because he regards it as the only legitimate form of informing. Crucial and illuminating, yes, but restrictive in any case. Somewhat related, Halberstam's regard for sports as a venue for only the hardcore and unhinged masses seemed to confirm his opinion on writing for me.bkbladeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14993067848904779017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33290030.post-66811119462864122592013-02-16T13:54:02.676-08:002013-02-16T13:54:02.676-08:00Hey, thanks a lot!

Yeah, honesty is absolutely crucial, and that's a great point; one of the perils of the non-access approach is it's sometimes tougher to make sure it's a fair and accurate representation of the person. Even if you don't talk to them, their side has to at least be considered. When done well, though, I think there's a lot of value to this approach. And the nice thing is it doesn't have the entry barrier of the access-intensive profiles. Anyone can write about Jordan, but not everyone can hang out in his penthouse.

This access-subject led me to remembe...Great post! This access-subject led me to remember David Halberstam's 'Summer of 49.' and the masterful way that work was able to tell me about an era that was generations before my time. Joe DiMaggio --the man and the memory of what he represented to fans, fellow Italos, and even post-war America-- has an aura and presence that transcends the decades, despite the fact that he was always guarded and grew increasingly distant as he aged. Yet, even without access to Joe D., Halberstam's writing about the man sort of demystified the legend and gave him a very human side; considerably different than the way the papers of the day and their beat-reporters told the tales that made up legend. As long as the non-access reporting in honest in the storytelling, that type of coverage doesn't 'take away' from the figure being considered. Quite the opposite, the lack of access allows for a truer portrait to be sculpted. Just as you mentioned, the relative freedom to comprise a broad composite of the figure is actually enhanced when the writer doesn't have to maintain loyalty, for the access that is graciously given. In a non-sporting sense, Edmund Morris's biography of Ronald Reagan, 'Dutch,' was probably the most perfect combination of access --initially he was to be the authorized biographer of the former life guard, actor, governer, and ultimate Cold Warrior, before going rouge and losing the authorized tag-- and freedom to critically assess his subject. Great article man, it made me think. Superfun Happy Slidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04941978459079005249noreply@blogger.com
