Hi CheerJourno1 and welcome to the boards.
Any chance you are willing to divulge particular info about yourself to help establish some credibility amongst us more established posters to know you really are who you claim to be?
I hope you understand we do have have a large number of minors on this forum and have had many users come in here claiming to be something they are not in the attempt to chat up the kids and become more friendly.
Understood completely. My name is Max Gershberg and I work at HBO Sports. I am based in New York and work as an investigative journalist. I am happy to discuss more about the details of my reporting to date via email or elsewhere, if someone has thoughts and info they care to divulge, but wish to do so in a more private forum. Knowing what I do already about the cheer industry's current status quo, I understand many are reticent to vocally discuss some of the problems. I am happy to use solid and credible information on deep background, or to have initial conversations take place off the record, as a means of advancing my reporting but respecting the privacy of those willing to engage initially. I hope this proves helpful. Thank you again.
