Nolte: ESPN President Takes a Knee — ‘Fans Do Not Want Us to Cover Politics’

ESPN President Jimmy Pitaro conceded defeat Monday by finally admitting, “Without question our data tells us our fans do not want us to cover politics.”
Well, no shit.

You needed your data to tell you that, Jimmy?

You needed to convene something to do a tabulation that deliver some data, Jimmy?

Was it the 15 million lost subscribers? Was that the “data?”

ESPN has gotten too political. No wonder why people do not watch ESPN as much.

Get the politics out and people will watch again. Plain and simple.

Agreed on that as well.

Personally only watch the ESPN family of networks when there is a game on where I have no other option.  Grew up and went well into adulthood watching it very frequently.
