Not sure how much longer Disney is going to watch millions of viewers bolt from ESPN.

I'm likely in a minority but have no problem with ESPN's actions. I don't have an issue with their decision if that is their managements choice. The viewership has suffered from it and that is how free markets work. Fox Sports network has risen because of the shrinking market share of ESPN and others will step in, others who have a less political footprint. Uber left sports shows have failed. See Keith Oberman's show...well I guess you can't see it because its no longer aired.

What I do have an issue with is the recurrent LIES perpetuated by the likes of Hill and other liberals about Trump being a white supremacist. Trumps has repeatedly denounced the klan and other such groups but they simply ignore it (link from over a year ago (http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/03/politics/donald-trump-disavows-david-duke-kkk/index.html)) because it fails to fit their narrative. Of course its no different than he hates "Mexicans" because he wants ALL immigrants to follow the immigration laws, or hates "Muslims" because he wants fuller vetting from ALL people coming from countries that are known to support terrorism. When media folks report FALSEHOODS, that is where I have a problem.

Its a double standard alright. Just ask Linda Cohn or Kurt Schilling

I don't need the sports media spewing politics.

Many, if not most are ignorant about sports..and they live it every day.
