We should pray that she makes derogatory statements about islam or some other protected religion, and then she would be fired.
A dozen?!?! Wow, the Christians are really showing ESPN...
You guys need a Christian Al Sharpton (and I don’t mean that in the negative sense), somebody who can get dozens or hundreds of people that the cameras can’t ignore.
In a sense... this makes the argument for a-la-carte channel selections from cable TV companies. We could simply vote with our wallets. Dropping every ESPN channel from our cable lineups would prompt ESPN to be somewhat more proactive in dealing with this situation.

I wouldn’t call him a “Christian Al Sharpton” but Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League is someone who doesn’t tolerate anti-Christian antics. If you click on the link below you can see where Donohue addressed ESPN on this issue and received an apology from Jacobson & ESPN. He accepted Jacobson’s apology and felt that “this matter is over.”

Just canned?She’d be in hiding for thr rest of her miserable life after the fatwas were issued.The muzzies would cut her to pieces and feed her to the dogs.
I had always thought Christians were taught to “turn the other cheek”
This is what I got when I wrote them..
Dana Jacobson’s actions and comments during the Mike and Mike roast were inappropriate and she has been disciplined.
Dana extends her deepest apology and asked that we send you her comment: “I am very sorry. My remarks about Notre Dame were foolish and insensitive. I respect all religions and did not mean anything derogatory by my poorly chosen words. I also deeply regret the embarrassment I have caused ESPN and Mike and Mike. My actions at The Roast were inappropriate and in no way represent who I really am. I have personally apologized to many of the people involved. I won’t make excuses for my behavior but do hope that I can be forgiven for such a poor lack of judgment.”
We appreciate you giving us the opportunity to respond.
Sincerely,
ESPN Viewer Response
Implying that there could be anything positive about poverty pimp/snake oil huckster Sharpton is absurd.
There is a time to speak out and be heard.
Interesting that FREPPERS want her fired, but do not want people fired that are to their liking.

She Said F+++ Jesus Christ.. thats pretty Low...
yes we do turn the other cheek but that doesn’t mean we have to be the world’s doormat.
People are just too sensitive these days. It’s like they’re looking for something to be offended about.
Fired? She'd have to go into hiding if she wanted to continue breathing
Yeah, I really didn’t like it either, but couldn’t think of a better way to make my point.
Are you aware of her actual remarks? No one has to "look for" the offenses she blurted out...she spit them in everyones face
