Ms. Steele’s replacement is Michelle Beadle is a reliable member of the Party; she got into fights over Ray Rice.
Since espn is not in the basic cable packages, it is easy to drop them.
Easy to not consume Disney products either since they provide only entertainment.
Neither are essential commodities.
I get sports through other means.
My prediction is that ESPN is sold off before the end of 2017. They can’t move ahead, and the profit margin is nowhere near what it was five years ago. Time for a new brand-name and makeover.
But since the election of Trump, the Loony Left has changed their tactics and gone to war.
All Conservatives, regardless of race or religion or gender are The Enemy and are fair game for whatever can be dished out by TPTB.
She’d look good on Fox News. She has the right dynamic for The New Frontier. Although I doubt she’s wearing Ambush and a French twist.
Will be interesting to hear Sage’s take on this. She hasn’t posted anything since.
Have o idea of who she is. Never watch ESPN so maybe that is the problem?
What’s an NBA? I’ve been fed up with the clown posse freak show for years.
She came across as a Christian & Conservative...and always pleasant to see and hear.
Obviously, not a fit at satan’s channel.

Could Rush Limbaugh put together enuf conservative venture capitalists to buy ESPN?
I wonder, what would that do to his radio gig?
Likely accused of “cultural appropriation” since she married a white GUY [let the reader understand].
It’s in the basic cable package where I live.
ESPN continuing their unwinning streak.
Next quarter’s numbers will not show improvement.
No way. If he was involved in ESPN, the extremist activists would protest loudly until every cable provider dropped the network.
You should see some of the hate filled stuff on the net today about her.
