re: ESPN LSU Correspondent David Ching part of mass layoffs

I just leave an alternative take here for all the non-right winger types...the entire piece is more well rounded and explanatory than that well-worn trope...

The Ringer

"2. Libtard ESPN got what it deserved! So goes the take bubbling into the feeds of media critics, and being shot from the elephant gun wielded by Jason Whitlock.

We’ve been here before, too. When the NFL ratings sank last season, it was all Colin Kaepernick’s fault.

One of the curses of living in interesting times (Donald Trump Edition) is that every media organization bears the mark of a secret political agenda, according to that one guy on the message board who has figured it all out.

Are ESPN’s layoffs the direct result of Bomani Jones having a particularly righteous night on the radio, or the network showing Michael Sam kissing his partner? No, no, no. Pierre LeBrun does not (as far as I know) wear a pussy hat.

If the take comes from someone who works for a competing cable sports network, be twice as skeptical.

“Is ESPN a liberal network?” is a legitimate and interesting question that deserves examination. But if you see someone saying ESPN got comeuppance for its “agenda,” they have, in nearly every case, just revealed their own."
