Anxious to discuss President Trump's tweet against ESPN (and host Jamele Hill's comments), CNN set female anchor Brooke Baldwin on the task to get to the bottom of whether Hill did anything worth being fired for or if evil President Trump was trying to crush her First Amendment rights. The interview started to go pear-shaped very quickly. Addressing the question of the first amendment, Fox Sports Radio's Clay Travis said... "I'm a first amendment absolutist and believe in only two things completely - the First Amendment and boobs..."Which seemed to 'trigger' Baldwin as she blinked and shook her head for a few seconds as if reeling from a McGregor haymaker, before asking Travis if he said "boobs" or "booze" - carefully spelling the former B-O-O-B-S (for fear of saying that unsafe word) as she reminded the panelist that she was indeed a woman. The interview went on for a few more seconds before a second panelist - former ESPN editor Keith Reed (and self-proclaimed 'friend of Jamele') was asked to join in and he also could not get past Travis' comment... "You don’t love boobs, too?" asked Travis.Eventually, as Daily Caller details, Baldwin had enough. “I’m done. I’m sorry. I’m done,”And just like that we all forgot what we were talking about and distractions ensure Jamele Hill keeps her job. See the full farcical interview here... [Source: Daily Caller] As a follow-up, late on Friday evening ESPN President John Skipper wrote an internal memo proclaiming that reporters shouldn't get personal or inflammatory and that Jamele Hill's tweets violated the network's standards.. I want to remind everyone about fundamental principles at ESPN.In other words, he apologized as Trump asked. And finally, Ben Shapiro summed up the situation perfectly, tweeting: "CNN being profoundly offended because a dude said boobs is why Trump won. But really, it is." |
