WSOP news coverage in your area

[card4]

I was just curious as to how much attention the WSOP recieved from the mainstream news outlets in your area. Here, the local news made a quick mention before going to a break towards the end of the newscast. It wasn't much but I sure it is more attention than poker has gotten before. Also, the Sunday paper ran a small story on the back page of the sports section. Nothing big but certainly more than poker was used to in the past. I doubt hardly any of the mainstream press paid attention to the WSOP five years ago. Who knows, if they get 10,000 people to enter next year maybe it will be front page news.

There have been small bits of articles and tv spots that mentioned it. It was nothing big. There were too many hurricanes and deaths around the world to talk about. Who cares about something exciting and fun.
