Viral exchange between Jacksonville reporter, Liam Coen sparks debate over professionalism

When Jacksonville Free Press reporter Lynn Jones-Turpin was handed the microphone during Jaguars coach Liam Coen’s post-game news conference on Sunday, she didn’t ask a question. Instead, she offered words of encouragement to the first-year head coach who led a four-win team to a 13-win season that ended in a heartbreaking playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. The moment has sparked national debate over professionalism in media.  News4JAX reporter/anchor Scott Johnson has the latest on the situation.
