It's the same with all media.
Bob Costas has gone on liberal tangents several times on air at NBC during the NFL pregame, and it was a-okay. I believe it was things like anti-gun rants and pro universal healthcare speeches.
Imagine if he gave on-air speeches about pro 2nd amendment topics or pro-conservative topics.
I think I would be completely shocked if someone like that started preaching about pro-conservative values. Imagine if he did that and the rest of the media agreed with him and wrote stories about how they agree with him on his pro 2nd amendment stance or pro-life stance.
It would feel like the world flipped upside down.

NBC has known super liberal wing of there organization.
Say if brandshaw went on well thought out pro-gun or even pro bathroom regulation discussion. I doubt he would get much backlash
That's not what schilling did however. I bet schilling wouldn't catch heat if he didn't tweet/Facebook post stupid shite without thinking. If he wants to shite post do it anonymously like all of us.
Everyone schilling mention in his interview brings ratings. He doesn't. He is just another washed up athelete trying to cash a check.
It's not a double standard, he is just isn't worth enough to keep around.

Yes , imagine ESPN hiring a guy who made a Pro Life Super Bowl ad ; or perhaps the best known evangelical Christian athlete of all time.

The big liberal conglomerates thought their news outlets were losing too much ground to conservative alternatives and losing all those viewers who don't agree with them...they were talking to themselves, less influence, no one to convert.
They needed a new medium to reach all viewers, cons, libs, men, women, impressionable youth...all watch sports.
Sports is the new vessell to sell the left religion...
NBC
CBS
ABC
All starting injecting political riffs, before, during or after sporting events...as part of some laughably named "national discussion" which was code for no discussion.
ESPN just does it the most because they can to fill programing.
I don't care which side you lean, I watch sports to get away from politics and enjoy it for sport.
It's annoying you can't escape it now.
