You really think Stu would be applauding ESPN for their ‘growth’ over the last few years? GTFO.

Diversity and inclusion have only ever been code words for anti-white.

I wish another channel would host live football.


I just bit the bullet, and canceled. I was only watching live games and last year or so only live LSU games with the sound turned down. I decided I'll just go back to what I did before when they weren't on TV every week, and just listen to the games on the radio.

This is why they dont show highlights on sportscenter anymore. Thats used to be time men could zone out their woman. Its toxic femininity

63 percent of ESPN’s executive leadership are women and/or people of color, according to the memo, and of the 116 new hires at ESPN this year, “52% are people of color and 42% are female.”


So what’s the problem? We still need a town hall? Blacks won’t be happy until it’s 100%?

ESPN really does think it’s a political network. They’re hosting town halls now.

ESPN will remain king until someone coughs up enough $$ to go head to head with them on broadcasting rights. That's the only reason they remain atop the heap.

And now…ESPN is resorting to creating and covering their own drama. Stuart Scott would be so disappointed.




Unfortunately Stuart Scott would be woke IMO. He was a celebrity and a black celebrity simply cannot be anything but very woke. I don't think it would be his genuine "gun to his head" belief, but he'd get involved in the trend.

Who's the token white guy...Stephen A?

And when they talk about diversity, they just mean black.

Where's the Asian and Mexican guys and gals?

How in the world is ESPN concerned they don't have enough black on-air talent? Look at their shows.

They can do whatever they want but diversity means diverse. Not just having shows chock-full of one minority.

Do y’all know of anyway we can contact espn to just ask a simple question? Let’s ask about them having more minority workers than not and how that relates to the US population.

Nothing wrong with that,but it makes you wonder why they need a group to address hiring of minorities. Maybe the ex players demographic makes it that way, but I just want to show them the numbers that say they are just virtue signaling
