Adam Mendelsohn, a close adviser to Lakers star LeBron James, has released a follow-up statement after saying he was “exhausted” by the Me Too and Black Lives Matter movements.
Over the July 4th weekend, the New York Times released a juicy inside ESPN story revealing that many of the network’s minority employees are unhappy with comments made by white commentator Rachel Nichols who is heard bashing the network’s efforts to impose more diversity on its on-air staff.
In a telephone recording accidentally uploaded to ESPN’s computer system, Nichols revealed her displeasure that black reporter Maria Taylor got a plum T.V. spot that Nichols had expected was hers for the taking.
The recording also revealed that she was talking to James’s P.R. adviser Adam Mendelsohn. On the call, Mendelsohn is heard slamming ESPN as a “snake pit” and claiming that “between Me Too and Black Lives Matter,” he was “exhausted.”
Mendelsohn released a short public statement about his comments on the recording.

I shouldn’t have said it or even thought it. I work to support these movements and know that the people affected by these issues never get to be exhausted or have nothing left. I have to continue to check my privilege and work to be a better ally.
Thou shalt not speak the truth!
Also a lot of people have said they're not going to watch Space Jam 2 so that may be a factor.
Now that hes a part owner of the Boston Red Sox he hates black people, just like everybody else in that organization.
From the article:
“In a telephone recording accidentally uploaded to ESPN’s computer system, Nichols revealed her displeasure that black reporter Maria Taylor got a plum T.V. spot that Nichols had expected was hers for the taking.”
Sounds like a female affirmative action employee is pissed off because she got trumped by a BLACK female affirmative action employee.
Oh, boo f******* hoo, LeBron James, dumber than a bag of door knobs, is exhausted by Black Lives Matter.
James has to be in the lead for the dumbest athlete in history.
Lebron’s advisor (Mendelsohn) is the exhausted one, not LeBron.
Never apologize to a Leftist.
Ball Less F***
I will watch the Space Jam abomination right after I watch the Ghostbusters movie with the all female cast.
When Hell freezes over!
Bingo!
FU le yuan the dribbler
I’m not sure why I should care what this high school graduate who used to play basketball well thinks.
I have no sympathy for him.
Lebron who?
He's Exhausted? I'm tired of this constant drumbeat of Racism everyday. The Demand for Racism has far exceeded the supply so they create SYNTHETIC RACISM as needed. Don't start your Communist Revolution without it!
I would imagine if you get sucked into this stuff via your number one client, it is tough, because these movements are just that, always moving the goalposts. Whatever the topic, nothing is ever good enough for them.
It has to be frustrating to never be good enough.
I’m been long exhausted by lebrain’s idiocy and racism for a long time…
More like he realizes they will exhaust his bank account.
The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the Revolution.
