I think Sarah Huckabee should be fired for trying to influence the employment of a private citizen. I think that Kellyanne should have been fired for promoting Ivanka's clothing line. Jemele should be fired for lack of talent, not what she put on Twitter.

Also, the comments that ESPN has lost 13 million subscribers is sort of true. It is really a matter of many people dropping cable altogether, not dropping a particular network.

Overally, it is astonishing what people will accept Trump saying as being unimportant, but will be offended when other people say much less about him. Talk about things that aren't important.

Clay Travis should have just said this and he would have been okay.

If you voted for Donald Trump,

ESPN HATES YOU.
GOOGLE HATES YOU.
HOLLYWOOD HATES YOU.

Make your business and entertainment choices, accordingly.

It's as ridiculous as UC Berkeley providing "safe spaces and counseling" for their kids due to the upcoming appearance by Ben Shapiro...BEN F'ING SHAPIRO now can't be handled by the students at Berkeley...can you believe this world sometimes?

If this represents the future of America (in all respects above), then we are in a world of hurt, coming soon to a theater near you.

Wake up people. This can't be how a large portion of America thinks, can it?
We have to do like the queen of England, keep control until we're ancient so we can skip a generation in selecting the next leader(s).

Comments by Jemele Hill of ESPN a ‘Fireable Offense,’ White House Says

I read in another article ESPN President John Skipper says ESPN about sports not politics

I hate ESPN, but I still like using their website for scores and stats. I have ad-blocker on and do not subscribe to any of their pay services. I will listen to a game on ESPN radio from time to time. I try to pay attention to who advertises on there and do not patronize them. The two common ones when I listen are Geico and Grainger. I have Allstate insurance and use Grainger's competitor McMaster-Carr for shop supplies. So I believe I am using ESPN and not giving them a red cent. I didn't vote for Trump, I wrote in Will Seemore, but I agree with him more than the others on the ballot.

If it were not for ESPN, CNN and PMSNBC would be hard pressed to hire all those total morons that work there.

I guess the answer to your very eloquently worded response to my post is that I thought the most important thing to all of the conservatives was that "the bitch is not in office." Now everybody is getting worked up about something that an ESPN anchor tweeted from her private account. To me, the bottom line is that we have a president who takes shots at everybody via his Twitter account. Conservatives think it is okay. When somebody takes a shot at the president, it is not okay? Mine was basically a commentary about the stupidity of the whole situation. The 1st amendment and boobs comment was just icing on the cake.

One serious question that I do have is how is it okay for a government official to try to influence the employment status of a private citizen. I am pretty sure that this is illegal. If not, it should be. My guess is that Sarah Huckabee will get a "talking to" just like Kellyanne did when she committed her ethics violation.

You are missing the point. ESPN covers SPORTS. At the same time they heavily interject politics into their coverage. LIBERAL views only, to the extreme it is laughable. The last 3 years they gave their ESPN courage award to a lesbian, a gay man, and a he-she. WTF is that? They encourage liberal spewing on air, yet if someone speaks from the right they are suspended or fired even if they do it off the air on their own time. No one is more biased than ESPN, screw them, I will laugh the day they go out of business. Almost as hard as I laughed at the crying Hillary supporters on election night.
