Dom Cosentino of theScore Profiles His Road Through Media, the Death of Deadspin, and More
Description
Dom Cosentino is an NFL senior features writer for theScore. He joined the Press Pass podcast to discuss his journey through sports media and how he ended up at theScore starting all the way back in Pittsburgh, when he'd publish a sports newsletter out of his parents' basement as a kid. After taking a job with a videoconferencing company out of college, Dom broke into the industry on a local township beat and wrote articles about the town's favorite pig dying. He moved on to the high school beat for a decade before deciding to try his hand at the online media industry, joining Deadspin as an editorial assistant. From there, he transitioned to covering the Jets as a full-time beat writer before ending up back at Deadspin, and was part of the staff that quite en masse after editor-in-chief Barry Petchesky was fired. Now he's at theScore.
