Paul Kuharsky has spent the past two decades covering the Titans for The Tennessean and ESPN. And though he spends a few hours every day delivering his opinion on sports for 104.5-FM The Zone, he’s a Columbia Journalism School grad who, first and foremost, has been a journalist. So when huge ESPN cuts came down this year, Kuharsky was forced to make some hard decisions about his career. Instead of signing on with an established outlet, he started his own site where readers could pay him directly for his news and views. It’s a growing trend as the revenue models behind traditional journalism continue to be disrupted. Editor Steve Cavendish talked to him about launching himself as a brand, the state of sports coverage and what he thinks of this edition of the Titans.
