But give them credit (I rarely do) - they have actually increased the profile of Chris Broussard - who many thought would be fired after his pro Christianity comments on Collin’s coming out....

Good. ESPN is as leftist as they come.

Fox is launching the Fox Sports 1 channel in August to compete directly with the Elitist Socialist Political Network. Fox plans to air live sporting events vs the liberal taped claptrap that the Bristol, CT klan broadcasts. I’m guessing Fox is undercutting their advertising and cable rates. Fox isn’t hindered by political correctness so the CT klan has to shed employees because they will be losing income.

I hope no Christ followers are hurt in this round of layoffs. I can see ESPN targeting Christians.

While difficult, we are confident that it will make us more competitive, innovative and productive.

Massive layoffs always do. </sarcasm>

I think this is another step in Disney cutting across the board. They recently shuttered LucasArts and let go of their 2D Animators.

I think most of the on-air personalities will stay. Most of the layoffs will be “behind the scenes” people.

A tipster told Deadspin that ESPN is planning to lay off more than 400 employees today.

WOW!

400 people Tweeting and posting on Facebook that Donovan McNabb sucks!

They could lay off Mike but keep Mike so it would be Mike in the Morning. The whole First Take crew should be gone.

I avoid the channel unless there is a live event that interests me. Last week, I heard an ESPN “talent” say that “only five baseball players matter nationally while about 30 NBA players have national appeal.” Stop promoting sports that have little importance such as college softball. Talk about sports business more often although that would mean the network would have to cease its dumbing down interests.
