ESPN Is No Longer the 'Worldwide Leader in Sports' Following Grantland Closure
ESPN sticks with shtick, instead of the real s#*t that brought them there.
ESPN — take it or leave it — has been the overwhelmingly lead source in U.S. sports reporting.
It was a juggernaut in the field and because of ESPN, sports reporters live by a different standard than the rest of the GAs and beat reporters in the newsroom. That said, it has become a parody of itself during the past few years with its drive for 24/7 reporting.
Now, add to that, execs cut most of good stuff (and even better reporters) and folks/former fans are none too pleased with ESPN.
