On this episode of the Life of Fitz podcast, host Tim Fitzgerald calls fellow site publisher Gabe DeArmond of PowerMizzou.com. Fitz and Gabe always viewed their sites as news outlets that practice journalism, which for many years was not how sites in their industry were viewed by outsiders. The customers are fans, but they're not at games to be fans. Their sites cover recruiting, but they are much more than recruiting sites. Both sports publishers practice community journalism, but while all of Fitz's community wears purple, Gabe’s dons black and gold.
