Clay Travis: Linda Cohn was suspended by ESPN when she said ESPN talked too much politics

Sources: After Linda Cohn spoke out on politics @ESPN she was told by prez John Skipper not to come to work & to think about what she said.
So @espn suspended Linda Cohn for saying ESPN was talking too much politics. Didn't suspend Jemele Hill for saying Trump was a racist.
First he gets the scoop on the Asian Robert Lee and now this.

I'm sure there are multiple people within ESPN who are feeding him information. Not everyone within that organization is a flaming liberal.

This looks bad but she is far from the only person who has spoken out against ESPN leaning too far into politics. Does anyone other than clay travis have any info on this? Cause he's the worst

I want to live in a world where Clay Travis and Jemele Hill simultaneously lose their jobs.

In a simultaneous event that leaves them both so toxic that no one in sports media will ever give them a job in any capacity again

Clay is a troll and an a-hole, but he is one of the only semi-mainstream guys fighting the ESPN SJW insanity, like with the Mizzou situation.

Seriously, Clay is the right wing version of Hill. The fact that I know both of their political leanings when they're supposed to be sports journalists is a problem.
ETA - apparently Travis is a Democrat.
I deserve the shame. This post was edited on 9/12/17 at 10:08 pm

Travis doesn't give a frick about liberal media, he simply uses the ultra conservative sensitivity about liberal media to gain popularity and generate clicks to his site
He's just as manipulative and biased as the media he goes after

You aren't wrong, but the leftist personalities in the sports media started this whole loud mouth analyst schtick.
I have no problem with there being a voice on both sides. I like seeing people called out on their bullshite.

No, he is the exact same as Skip Bayless tossing out horseshite hot takes designed to rile people up so he can get more clicks. The main difference is he now uses politics to chum the waters. He doesn't give a flying frick about stopping SJWs. He is no different than dipshits like Tomi Lahren playing at people's base emotions to get paid.

Clay is pretty moderate. Insanity of espn makes him seem right wing.
