NHL media is under fire after a creepy new feature on Connor Bedard
NHL media is facing backlash following the announcement of a controversial new feature involving rookie sensation Connor Bedard.
NBC Sports recently revealed their plans to introduce a dedicated game camera exclusively focused on Bedard throughout the entire match, starting from the Blackhawks' next game onward.
The move has raised eyebrows and garnered criticism, particularly considering the significant media attention Bedard has already experienced at the age of 18.
Critics argue that the decision to have a camera solely focused on Bedard for the entire game is excessive and contributes to the already overwhelming media scrutiny surrounding the young player.
The dedicated camera coverage is set to kick off in game on NBC Sports Chicago PLUS, prompting discussions about the boundaries of media coverage and the potential impact on the young player's experience in the league.
