They brought it all upon themselves. A ‘sports’ network without ‘sports’....................
Wow, ESPN on air personalities trash conservatives and push a hard leftist line and now whine when the people they attack laugh at their misfortune?
Haven’t they ever heard of Schadenfreude?
Looks like the most odious ESPN presenters, looking at you Jemele Hill, were spared.
Where’s my tiny violin?
Just call me a dirtbag! Heh, heh, heh!
KEK
Yeah i couldn’t begin to give a ####.
Many of those laid off will land on their feet almost immediately. Danny Kannell, Jayson Stark and Ed Werder will all get job offers by tomorrow morning. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised that Stark gets job offers from FOX Sports or MLB Network as early as April 27, 2017!
They became too PC.
Losing a job is bad, I agree.
The pain being inflicted upon ESPN employees, I hope, is seen for what it truly is: a self-inflicted wound brought about by the utter disregard for the opinions of the consumers of the product.
Like Rush Limbaugh has been saying for years, the ‘news’ media is one of the few where the providers always think the CONSUMER is wrong and the PROVIDER is correct.
The saddest thing is, the fake journalists are so surrounded by the group think in their profession that they cannot even see how WRONG they are in their worldview.
Thanks! I like that name!
Zero sympathy.
Like the NYT, Washington Post, Boston Globe, CBS, NBC, etc., ESPN uses their pulpit to endorse insane cultural agenda-driven “reporting”, publicly shaming (or attempting to) people or organizations who don’t toe their line.
Screw them.
These are the same people who enthusiastically supported politicians who specifically said they intended to destroy the coal industry utterly. Well, they are just evil fossil fuel employees. They can retrain and find some other service industry job.
No sympathy. None. Zero. When each of the entities above go belly up, I will have a drink in celebration each time.
Proverbs 16:18 fits ESPN like the pink skirt they’ve been pushing for years.
I’m one of those ‘dirtbags’ who enjoys to watch the justice dished out to these scum who gave us 5% sports and 95% social lectures.
Journalism by its very nature has become the practice of ruining people’s lives in the name of getting the scoop and, more commonly, pushing an agenda and destroying those who oppose it.
So lets have a pity party that the Neo-modern version of the Gestapo has fallen on hard times.
I get NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS and a bunch of cable network channels with my standard tv subscription, but not ESPN.
I think ESPN needs to quit expecting to remain a premium channel that charges extra to subscribe.
When they do that, then I’ll watch it sometimes, but not until then.
Suck it up buttercup! My DOD contractor company laid off a thousand a couple years after pussy hat obama took over.
I had to look it up just to be sure. Entertainment and Sports Programming Networks.
Perhaps if the network had actually stuck to Entertainment and Sports programming instead of becoming the Social Justice Warrior Network, they wouldn’t be suffering layoffs now.
The MSM need to hurry up and die already.
What about the coal miners Obama put out of work?
Or the people in the oil fields tied to the fracking rigs that the dems are hoping to ban?
Or all those that could have mined or drilled or ranched on the millions of federal acres he moved off limits?
Why is it we’re only supposed to care about sports reporters?
First Down !!!
