ESPN removes Sage Steele from programming after controversial remarks
The Hill ^ | Oct. 5, 2021 | Olafimihan Oshin

ESPN has removed personality Sage Steele from programming for a week after she made controversial remarks in a podcast appearance, including calling the company's coronavirus vaccine mandate "sick" and saying it was "fascinating" that former President Obama self-identifies as Black "considering his Black dad was nowhere to be found."

Front Office Sports and the Philadelphia Inquirer on Tuesday reported that Steele won’t appear in her regular noon “SportsCenter” slot for a week and she will no longer be the host for the 2021 "espnW: Women + Sports Summit," which will take place from Oct 18 to 20.

She’s in the Penalty Box for one week. I guess this will be her final warning. Meanwhile, Sage, stick to Sports only.
You know how those Dems never can take a joke if it’s about one of their Golden Calf Idols.

Obama’s supposed father was married.

And not to the slut who brought little Hussein into the world.

Sadly, Ms. Steele is toast.

You can't have any opinion that does not agree with whatever the ass sucking leftists have decreed that day. (It changes from day to day so it's a little hard to keep up.)

Unless you're a social justice warrior. Then, you can say anything you like.

[And not to the slut who brought little Hussein into the world.]

Since his birth certificate was found to be fraudulent by Sheriff Arpaio’s investigative team, there’s no proof Stanley Dunham was his birth mom.

Not knowing anything about Sage Steele, she appears to be a very attractive mulatto whom wondered off the reservation in her remarks about former president Sparkle-Farts.
Hopefully she will learn her lesson and keep her position.

You know, it is chilling how speaking (and speaking the truth by the way) is so intimidating to the left.

That’s right. They were called the Cold Case Posse led by Mike Zullo. What’s so funny?

The majority of folks agree with her, but, if she was white, she’d be long gone.

She’ll get fired. She was married to a white guy.
