How do the people in charge of radio broadcasting and ESPN not know that these people are the way they are before allowing them to represent them on the internet or over television or radio airtime?
Are you telling me that these people never in any way show their true feelings to any co-workers, supervisors or anyone?
Imus showed his true colors time and time again. Yet someone thinks it's a good idea to put him back on the air?
Jemele Hill wrote an article with very poor judgement in humor and showed her true feelings when it comes to race issues. Time and again she has shown a semi-militant African-American stand lambasting anyone who has had a slip of the tongue for something that might be construed as racially objective to African-Americans. She then goes out and uses this type of humor and is surprised by it?
Are you telling me that someone didn't see this coming after reading her articles, blog, and watching her on television?
I swear to god that the powers that be know these people are going to eventually hang themselves, so they allow them to continue. That way when they mess up, their company is getting a ton of publicity. Any pub is good pub especially if you have really good spin police available to you.
Then they hang the idiot out to dry and they are perceived as the surprised, shocked, unknowing but politically correct entity that everyone can love because were taken advantage of by a rebel employeebut got justice for all because they eradicated just a wee bit of racism in the world.
