ESPN– the same ESPN that continues to hire people like Keith Olbermann– has issued a warning to anti-Trump hosts. They better not!….or something like that?
ESPN managers are telling their more outspoken personalities to be careful on social media after Disney canceled Roseanne Barr’s show on ABC after she compared former Obama aide Valerie Jarrett to an ape.
That’s actually hilarious, because this is the kind of person ESPN hires.

Can we get ICE to do something useful, legal, and patriotic for once, and deport this goddamned Nazi’s fat ass out of here? https://t.co/FChAMaBQh8

Please.
Although ESPN declined to comment on the reports, sources say that some managers also sent messages to broadcasters and writers who have been involved in social media controversies.
No one can take this seriously.
What drug can Olbermann blame for this? pic.twitter.com/9D8wf7nqVV

So @espn says 'Be careful.'
Not…'Knock it the heck off, you're supposed to be talking about sports, not politics.'
Just 'Be careful.'

So I’m not telling you how to do journalism but doesn’t one follow up @espn statement with then what were you thinking when you hired @KeithOlbermann
How do you reconcile your statement & actions?— Brandon (@Brandontheblade) June 2, 2018
They aren't going to do anything. All talk just to try and smooth the churning waters.
Just a patronizing stunt.

Even if one of their anti-Trump hosts slipped, they’d get away with it. We all know it’s true.
At least ESPN is pretending to care…kinda.
