Why didn't any MSM reporter ask this Q?

Last semester, I.C. student Chris Lisee made a strong point in his blog about the importance of indy journalists being present to ask questions that insider reporters might not ask. Chris blogged about an indy/gadfly/blogger named Ken Krayeske who used a post-game news conference to question the Univ of Connecticut basketball coach about his $1.5 million state salary -- at a time of salary cuts for almost every other state employee. That question and the coach's angry response generated a huge amount of mainstream media coverage . . .after the expected MSM rumbling and ridicule aimed at Krayeske. All the coverage (and scrutiny of the coach’s salary by state legislators) probably would not have happened but for the gadfly getting into the room posing the difficult question.
