Freedom when publishing an article blaming the United States on July 4th with the latest example that critics believe ESPN is an awakening agenda pervading the sports network. Liberal politics was at the heart of ESPN.
Many Americans are freed from the polarized world of everyday life and rely on sports to escape, but ESPN has been doing so for years. It has been accused of injecting liberal politics into content. ESPN President Jimmy Pitaro is owned by Disney shortly after his far-left predecessor John Skipper shocked the media industry with the sudden resignation of a drug dealer in late 2017. I got a top job on ESPN. In the days of Skipper, who fanned him
, he saw ESPN turn left dramatically , and the network praised the protests of Colin Kaepernick's national anthem. He was accused of spending a lot of time erupting to the far left-leaving the point of the story. Liberal voices were rewarded with attention-grabbing gigs while conservative personalities such as Curt Schilling were shown on the door. ( Shilling was fired in 2016 after sharing a Facebook post on North Carolina law prohibiting transgender people from using certain bathrooms.)
Pitaro initially encouraged ESPN's talent to move away from the political rhetoric that plagued the network during Skipper's tenure, centered on a variety of racial and political topics, sports Fans continue to be flooded with political messages.

ESPN has been accused of injecting its content in liberal politics for years.
George Floyd's murder has long been reported by the sports network, conservative major league baseball players have been criticized for religious views, and ESPN protests to Florida parents. There was even a moment of silence because the Education Rights Bill "doesn't call it gay" by Democrats who falsely claim to prohibit any discussions related to being gay in state schools. It's called a bill.
Situation when ESPN shocked readers on Monday celebrating Independence Day with a column entitled "Baseball, BBQ, and the Loss of Freedom on July 4th." Did not change. ESPN's senior writer Howard Bryant is a long-running work that attacks the United States in a variety of ways, including "20 years of military compliments and undoubted nationalism" that emerged after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. I wrote.
Duncan wrote that the United States is now "completely torn" because of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, and the American flag is "by a white nationalist group. It was adopted. " ESPN's columnist also referred to the January 6 hearing, calling women "pregnant people," andOutkick founder Clay Travis"completely distilled all problems." American Sports. "
Here are some of the most awakening moments from ESPN in my recent memory:
Sarah Spain calls Rays players "bigots" for not wearing gay pride Patch
Last month, Tampa Bay Five Rays players refused to put the LGBTQ + logo on their uniforms because of their religious beliefs, and ESPN's Sarah Spain labeled the decision "Bigot."

"It's a religious exemption BS that is used in sports and otherwise allows people to be denied rights in health care, work, apartments, children, prescriptions, all sorts ... us. Must stop on tiptoe to avoid it. Spain demands that prejudiced people be exempt from it when they are suffering from the consequences. I'm trying to protect it from being. "
