More Cuts at ESPN

Read toward the end. She was suspended over those tweets in a previous job AND STILL DIDN'T DELETE THEM! THEN BLAMED ESPN!

 

I have a buddy who grew up with her. He is... not surprised.

I *think* they were deleted long ago? Doesn’t seem clear from the article and some of the comments indicated they had been gone a long time. Looks like these are just old screenshots. She’s been a semi-public figure for awhile so has had plenty of time, and the attitude, to make enemies.

But obviously when you use a word like that with that frequency, deleting years ago isn’t enough.

 

Gets busted for being a terrible person and then blames others. Where else have we seen that?

 

LOL - the 280 character resignation letter rears its head again

 

It's not that I'm an asshole, it's just that I have strident views!!!

So ESPN is hiring/firing betting analysts with thin resumes and letting-go reputable journalists and talent. It checks out.

 

Ariel Helwani is leaving ESPN

 

Mike Golic details his sad ESPN ending: 'Blow to the ego'

 

Interesting read. It was a little crazy how long the whole Greenberg rift played out.

I wasn't a big Golic fan, but he seemed like a decent enough guy. I thought the amount of Golic family talk was over the top. They all seemed to think they were famous.

 

ESPN put him on college football last fall as a throwaway assignment just because he insisted on having something to do for the last few months of his contract. And that was actually the first time I’ve enjoyed hearing from him.

 

He wasn’t even the best broadcasting Golic. That honor goes to Bob, who was pretty damn entertaining when he was on Fox Sports Radio in its early days.
