ESPN Ombudsman - "R-word"

Post by SonomaCat » Fri Sep 06, 2013 5:52 pm

I've never read anything from the ESPN ombudsman before, and found the "behind the curtain" nature of it really interesting. It's particularly interesting given the current rise in media coming out against the Washington NFL franchise branding mascot and discussion about ESPN's position on that. It's big business, and he describes it that way, which makes perfect sense.
