Maury Brown of Forbes talks MLB goals and Orioles realities in new world of digital and streaming beyond leaving the disaster of Angelos and the MASN debacle behind for Baltimore and Washington baseball.
Peter G. Angelos threatens MLB and gets his every wish fulfilled in 2005 and the Orioles – and Washington baseball – would never be the same. The story about how MASN lined the family with cash for a generation of awful baseball and even worse television coverage of it.
So how did the kid from Dundalk get his start in local sports journalism before there was a WNST? Well, there was a guy named John Steadman and a place called Hammerjacks and three newspapers competing…
Peter Angelos was once called a “windbag” by a rival politician during his City Hall-aspiring days and six years into his reign of terror with the sputtering Orioles, his many words and lack of success with people would lend some credence to that claim.

“What did do you do wrong, Nestor?” “Why would the Ravens throw you out?” “Why are you the only one in the local media whom they’ve thrown out?” “Why have they treated you this way?” “WHAT DID YOU DO WRONG!?!” I am fed up with these questions from Baltimore sports fans so I wrote to the owner because these questions are his to answer. Letters to John Harbaugh and Eric DeCosta are also coming soon.
This is my story in my own words. Listen and learn about how the NFL treats the local media and avoids the tough questions and intimidates local media who have traveled and reported on Baltimore football since before Art Modell brought the Ravens here in 1995. What happened is wrong and here’s why…
WNST and Baltimore Positive founder Nestor Aparicio was invited onto “The You Matter Podcast” by his longtime media friend, Mark “The Blade” Brodinsky. The question: “What can you do to be the very best version of you every day and live the life you were meant to live?”
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh privately vowed to help Nestor Aparicio with his media credential bullying situation with Chad Steele in any way he could. Weeks later, Aparicio was exterminated. Harbaugh then told him he was unhappy about it but powerless because it wasn’t his department in Owings Mills.

Luke Jones offers Dennis Koulatsos some insights into Liars Luncheon and no questions about Lamar Jackson
Lifelong journalist Nestor Aparicio took a deep dive with Dennis Koulatsos on the unprofessional public relations antics of Chad Steele and how the integrity and accountability of the Baltimore Ravens organization has changed dramatically over three decades. “No questions for our leadership about Lamar Jackson,” says the brand manager. Patently absurd.
