Poop Reading - New Slogans for ESPN

CATEGORIES

Feb 26, 2010

It was reported this week that Tony Kornheiser, co-host of the ESPN show Pardon the Interruption, will be suspended for two weeks following disparaging comments he made about the way Hannah Storm, an anchor for SportsCenter, dresses. This comes on the heels of baseball analyst Steve Phillips getting fired in October for having an affair with a female ESPN production assistant, the firing of baseball analyst Harold Reynolds in 2006 for sexual harassment, and a long-rumored history of inappropriate sexual conduct among executives, producers, and on-air talent at the network. It would appear that "The Worldwide Leader in Sports" is in the market for a new slogan...
