The sports industry does not only consist of athletes and managers. There are also the reporters or journalists. They are the ones who go to watch live sports and report trackside or from the studio. They follow the season and the athletes. They are the ones who build a narrative and share it to the public. It got me thinking whether they do sports betting or not and uses whatever inside information they have. Or do they spread something just to bet something different? If you were a sports journalist, would you enjoy betting on the sports you report on?
I don't think it's necessary for this journalist to gamble on the sport they report despite having information needed to gamble with. Although it's a matter of choice wether to gamble or not. I know many are gamblers while some are not gamblers despite doing a work relating to Gambling. So if I am in the shoes of this journalist I may gamble when I see a more possible wining game but not all the time. I know you guys may think of a game that is more possible but we all know some game that appears to be sure despite gambling is all about luck that we can't be sure until the game has ended.
People can be lucky to predict matches and they win that doesn't implied that they are sure of those matches before gambling, there can be possible winning games but we are not yet sure until it's final blow by the referral of the match.
Sports journalist can gamble is choice not all but i don't think a sports journalist will be addicted to gambling the chance of gambling won't be much i may not gamble since are already receiving pay from the work am doing or if i will gamble it will be money i can afford to lose.
