how much longer until this pandering trash is cancelled?
the ratings can't be good

You don't like a little Nation of Islam with your sports?
THE SIX is a fantastic show. It's the best SportsCenter has ever been. I'm glad Michael Smith and Jemele Hill can bring their chemistry to prime time ESPN. They always have the freshest takes. But above all else, they always keep it real.
Thank you Michael and Jemele for SC6.
>>74681023
what did she mean by this?
>>74681076
Something about how killing gays is not that bad, is what I gather?
Michael Smith is fucking gorgeous. I don't care about the show.
Does anyone remember, it was either for the 25th or 30th anniversary of ESPN, they did a segment on SportsCenter, in which several people said ownership didn't want Star personalities to outshine the brand of sportscenter l, which is why people like Keith Olbermann and Dan Patrick eventually had to leave. Now they're doing the exact opposite of that. They even renamed the show to include the hosts names.

I don't get why this makes /sp/ so mad, i thought you didnt watch espn anyways
>>74681150
He gotta big ass dick too
>>74681076
She means the black community needs to be more respectful of gays.
>>74681184
I always wondered about this myself
Black people, especially younger black people still watch scheduled TV. Young affluent whites are more likely to have cut the cord. You will see more TV focusing on black audiences and trying to replicate Empires success.
>>74681244
It's because ESPN pandering to hip-hop culture and BLM influences the entire narrative of the sports world because ESPN is such a powerful brand name and it's on in every bar in America.
Also /sp/ is an extension of /pol/
>>74681258
Then why do all these shows keep failing?

They don't. Atlanta, Blackish, and a few others have caught on when more and more shows are competing for less and less eyeballs.
>>74681277
cable is dying
no matter what they do they're going to bleed
now, espn has made things worse for themselves by pandering to liberals and making shitty investments in sports people dont care about but they were going to die out anyways

It's not just ESPN. It's a purely numbers thing from every station and they are all trying to attract African Americans and jump ship from the fastest sinking demographic, young whites.
ESPN still focuses on white audiences where it works, like ESPN Radio. The majority of the audience listening to Mike and Mike and Rusillo are older white guys.
>>74681180
yes, this is why Chris Berman was the only remaining member of the old guard.
They didn't want the "stars" outshining the "content" or something stupid.
(They actually just didn't want to pay them)
These nigs probably get paid way less than them.
what theyve failed to realize is niggers and liberals are broke fucks, so they pander to them but get nothing in return. sporting events, even nba is filled by mostly white people or nonblack minorities. the blacks you do see usually have the discount tickets and try to sneak their own snacks in.
>>74681433
They have been with the company for not even half the time that Berman was. Why would they make nearly as much as he did?
>>74681439
>lol them broke ass niggers
They are the ones still paying for cable.
>>74681439
How much of that do you actually believe?
>>74681455
Plus, you know if they were making substantially less we'd hear about it
>>74681455
i was referencing the 180 ESPN has now done making them "stars" of their primetime 6 PM time slot when the last 20 years they fired or got rid of anyone who wanted to be a big personality.
i figure a big reason they've made this switch is that they don't have to pay them 'star money'
>>74681502
Well they were making Lindsay Czarniak a star and letting her solo host 6PM SC like they let SVP have late night SC, but she choose to become pregnant and take time off. ESPN's backup plan was His or Hers primetime.
>>74681552
That's the thing. Sports "personalities" are what is ruining ESPN.
>>74681466
Hockey airtime ad rates proves it.
>>74681004
>>74681076
Jamele Hill was race baiting before it became cool. She should've been fired years ago. Disney Jews obviously knew what they were doing keeping her around.
>>74681076
YAAASSSS QUEEN PREACH
Why the fuck are you guys so ass-blasted about this? What? Black people can't a host a shitty sports highlight show?
Who the fuck cares?

Yes, Islam has a homophobia problem but that does not give you an excuse to flaunt everything else as tolerant when it clearly is not the case. Homophobia is still a rampant problem in America, and she is making this eloquent in her statement.

Plenty of leftists on /pol/ m8
>>74681481
There have been multiple articles on ESPN's loss of money.
>>74685478
The only problem with homophobia in America is that it isn't rampant enough.
>>74685478
Yeah but mate, western society, even one as socially conservative as the USA is aeons ahead of most other cultures - it has every right to lecture to those that cannot conform to it's civilksed standards of human rights.
>>74681004
They'll operate at a loss, it doesn't matter.
It's not about money, it's about sending a message, whatever message you believe they are intending
ESPN and Disney are quite aware of the hemorrhaging money and viewers.
And they clearly don't care since they are actually doubling down on it

>pay for "Woke Niggas Throwing Shade Hour" for 2 more fiscal quarters
