“ESPN is not a political organization. Where sports and politics intersect, no one is told what view they must express,”

This is a flat-out lie.

Just like in the NFL, where over 70% of the players are black, and in the NBA, where over 90% of the players are black, ESPN is simply afraid to tell it’s black employees to cool it.

The only reason Jemele Hill wasn’t fired like all the other ESPN commentators who made political statements or perceived no PC statements is because she holds two of three trifecta in the identity policies horse race...

Black and female...

I don’t know if she is queer so it may be win place and show...

ESPN is a joke, and most certainly is not an organization of any sort.

In light of recent events, we need to remind ourselves that we are a journalistic organization and that we should not do anything that undermines that position," he continued, noting, "ESPN is about sports."

BS.

"In light of recent events, we need to remind ourselves that we are a journalistic organization and that we should not do anything that undermines that position," he continued, noting, "ESPN is about sports."

BS.

"At the same time, ESPN has values," Skipper continued, writing ESPN is "committed to inclusion and an environment of tolerance where everyone in a diverse work force has the equal opportunity to succeed."

BS.

Do you see a pattern here?

Back in the day I used to watch The Sports Reporters every week. But with the passing of first Dick Schaap and then John Saunders, they ruined that too - mostly thanks to that d**k Lupica..
