Saints fired Dennis Allen

Who wrote it is my question. A fan or a professional reporter?

It's hard to know, but I don't think the guy is a real "journalist". Not sure how MSN gets the writers for Fansided, but I suspect it's a freelance gig where guys write things that get hits so that other stuff they write gets published and they get paid.

Here is his bio: https://muckrack.com/john-buhler

Edit: Yep, they are independent contractors that submit stuff they hope to get published. It tends to lead to hot take articles that get hits as opposed to well written and reasearched articles. https://openings.fansided.com/#:~:text=In other words, you are,your own fandom-related stories.&text=Our Site Experts focus their,community around their chosen fandom.

So, yeah, anyone can write this stuff and they don't have to have any qualifications to do so.
