Coming Friday: The launch of the 20th annual best and worst of the L.A. Sports Media

Here's your annual heads up.

It starts with a feature on KSPN-AM's Marcellus Wiley that accompanies the Top 10/Bottom 5 list of the local sports-talk guys.

The following weeks will cover the best and worst of the TV anchor/reporters, the radio and TV game analysts, and then the play-by-play guys. And because this is something of a magic number -- we started it at the L.A. Daily News in 1993 -- we'll attempt to do a "whatever happened to" column in mid-February after all this blows over.

Any reader comments before and after are welcome. Email me at thomas.hoffarth@dailynews.com for your favorites and disfavorites, in any category, and we'll weigh it into our decision.

The 2011 lists:
== Radio talk-show hosts
== TV personalities
== Game analysts
== Game play by play
