from www.pwinsider.comWhat is your take on the Dave Meltzer-TNA deal? I don't believe for one second that Dave Meltzer knowingly wrote something false. I believe that when he wrote the story, he believed he had the proper sourcing to back himself up. In my opinion, if the story wasn't correct, it should have been Destination America, NOT TNA, to say anything. Fans expect wrestling promotions to lie to them and TNA, honestly, doesn't have the best track record in many fans' eyes. TNA commenting made it worse. DA would have killed the story dead with one press release. They, to date, have not and that's very telling. As far as the story, I don't know what his sourcing was and I believe that when Meltzer posted his story, he believed at that moment that was the truth. It's also important to note that if things have changed, that doesn't make his story false either. It just means that things evolved, just as things changed between Steve Austin and WWE from the time I wrote about their issues in March to now. Stories are all always in motion, in front of and behind the camera. When a story is ongoing, it doesn't mean the reporting at a certain point was incorrect. I think a LOT of fans forget that in their rush to support/attack others or use what happens later to prove the initial reports were incorrect when that isn't the case at all. Obviously, I want to see TNA as healthy as possible because a lot of good people make their living working there. We will see how the story resolves itself.
