20 RespuestasYour post is misleading [quote]When the Charlottesville protests erupted two weekends ago, ESPN executives -- for better or worse -- wondered if there might be an issue on their hands. With Robert E. Lee suddenly back in the news, they feared Robert Lee, a young, new play-by-play announcer assigned to the Virginia-William & Mary game on opening weekend would show up in Twitter memes and posts on Web sites like Awful Announcing or Deadspin. They were worried that his big moment, even on a lightly watched game, might turn into a national joke. [u]According to an ESPN executive, who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the situation, ESPN asked Lee if he would be more comfortable calling another game but gave him the option to stay. Lee chose to switch assignments, and ESPN accommodated him[/u].[/quote]

4 RespuestasStatement from ESPN... [quote] This wasn't about offending anyone. It was about the reasonable possibility that because of his name he would be subjected to memes and jokes and who knows what else. Think about it. Robert Lee comes to town to do a game in Charlottesville No politically correct efforts. No race issues. Just trying to be supportive of a young guy who felt it best to avoid the potential zoo." It was a mutual decision [/quote] Makes sense...
