Folks you can't have an opinion these days without being cancelled. Another one bites the dust from the Woke company ESPN.
Women, including black women are now in the crossfire of political correctness. Oops, I'm sure that wasn't the original intent. The law of unintended consequences.
The only safe job these days is being a leftist bigot disparaging conservatives.
ESPN anchor Sage Steele is off the air after her comments on vaccines and Obama
Sports anchor Sage Steele is off the air at ESPN after she called vaccine mandates "sick" and "scary" and questioned why former President Barack Obama identifies as Black even though he was raised by his white mother.
Steele made the comments last week on the podcast
Uncut with Jay Cutler, and her removal from the air was reported by
Front Office Sports.
In a statement, the network said: "At ESPN, we embrace different points of view - dialogue and discussion makes this place great. That said, we expect that those points of view be expressed respectfully, in a manner consistent with our values, and in line with our internal policies. We are having direct conversations with Sage and those conversations will remain private."
ESPN also shared a statement from Steele. "I know my recent comments created controversy for the company, and I apologize," she said. "We are in the midst of an extremely challenging time that impacts all of us, and it's more critical than ever that we communicate constructively and thoughtfully."
