    This is why I turned off ESPN and don't watch it anymore . Also why they had to give walking papers to 100 employees .
    Jesus , you would think they would get the clue after all of what they've went through , stop with the political push , viewers don't care about politics while watching sports, guess not .
    The problem, no other Company has cashed in on the ESPN downfall , FS1 attempted but racket ball, racing isnt exactly going to gain you Ratings lost by ESPN .

    It wasn't any better in the 90s. If anything race relations are better now.
    Social media caters to exteme viewpoints. The far left and far right get the noise, not people in the middle. People can get into their bubbles where they believe what they believe and if you don't agree with them, you are evil. Already liberal media outlets like ESPN, CNN see the "outrage" on twitter and magnify issues that aren't really important. The result is we are constantly bombarded with hot takes and disneyfication (good vs evil) of every single issue. The middle man doesn't have a voice anymore.

    Just when Asian sports broadcasters started getting gigs now they are being discriminated against as to not offend an audience who most likely don't even watch sports judging by who has been out there whining.

    The thread title is wrong. It's not like they fired the guy. They agreed to reassign him to a different game. Much ado about little.
