The 19th Hole Golf Show: On taking pride in the content we consume

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


A day after our report looking at some of golf social media's most egregious content lifters, stealers and plagiarizers, we talk about why these accounts are dangerous for folks who do create things in our industry.

We also look at how our culture of a "free Internet" has bred sites and accounts like theses and what consumers could do to prevent them from continuing to pop up.

Be sure to subscribe to our podcast on iTunes, TuneIn or Stitcher, and follow GNN Radio on TuneIn. You can download the show, too.
