DC:
ESPN refused to acknowledge whether or not it had plans to pull pundit Robert Ley off of the air, despite the fact that he has the same name as an infamous Nazi official.
In an e-mail to ESPN, The Daily Caller asked if the sports broadcasting giant had a plan for dealing with Ley, considering the network had already pulled ESPN college football commentator Robert Lee from broadcasting a Virginia football game because he shares a name with a Confederate general.
Robert Ley was a Nazi official who “was made head of the German workers’ front after Hitler’s accession to power.”
He “supervised the mobilization of foreign as well as German labour for war work” during World War II and committed suicide during the Nuremberg Trials.
ESPN denied the initial report about Lee being pulled because of his name but completely ignored TheDC’s questions about Ley. more here
SNIP: ESPN seems to be experiencing a lot of self-caused problems lately. 😁
ESPN: Elitist Socialist Peoples Nirvana!
ESPN supervising producer Joseph Goebbels was unavailable for comment.
They have put themselves between a rock and a hard place. If they do move this guy, ESPN looks even more stupid. If they don’t they look racist.
Now it’s LEY? Not even Lee? I’ve never heard of the Nazi Ley, and 99.965% of people haven’t either. Looks more and more like a pretext for race-based employment discrimination.
Ryen Russillo was unavailable for comment as he is dealing with the law right now!
espn, lemon, maddow, joe and mika, clapper, too many to count, all tangled in their own underwear, undone by their own aspirations to bring trump down, can’t keep their lies straight, heads exploding
this is so much fun, and i’m laughing so much that i’m hurtin’ like a coon dog shittin’ peach seeds
Steven Smith is also the name of a slave owner, confederate soldier, KKK member or something so get rid of him too. He looks like a cabbage patch doll.
Scott Van Pelt – his name may trigger PETA members. Time to go, Scott.
Dilemma for Marshawn Lynch – change his last name or hang himself.
I’m wondering how these fools will contort themselves next. May I buy you dorks a round of lithium?
I didn’t know there was a guy named Hitler doing play-by-play. Go figure.
Speaking of names (not that I give a fuck) but there was a Pelosi who was a Fascist submarine commander in WWII.
Probably related (by marriage) to that fetid oozing pustule in Congress.
(not that there’s such a thing as a “Fascist submarine” only that he was a submarine commander in Mussolini’s Fascist Navy)
izlamo delenda est …
ESPN said they had the perfect, reasonable solution to the Ley problem. They were going to put him in an oven.
Yeah, all the shower stalls are probably gay hangouts, to the oven!!!!!
