EPSN has taken a lot of heat lately for the prominence of left-wing politics on their telecasts, but they’re not the only ones combining politics and sport. This week, an NBC Sports personality attacked the presence of American flags at baseball games.
One would think that other networks would have learned from ESPN’s troubles. For many, the outrage against the ESPN began with Collin Kaepernick. When the 49er QB sparked controversy for kneeling during the national anthem, one ESPN personality called the protest “a wonderful thing.” In December, it was revealed that the network lost half-a-million subscribers, much of which was attributed to the network’s far-left politics.
NBC Sports writer Craig Calcaterra doesn’t appear deterred by ESPN’s woes. Instead, he seems to be emulating the behavior that has gotten his colleagues at ESPN in so much trouble. In fact, his comments were so anti-American, it could be argued that his views are even more controversial.
Read what he said about the American flag on the next page:
Maybe it would be better to ban NBC and their employees as they are too political!
The American flag is not political at all. It’s the symbol of our country. Every country has one. It’s only in the mind of the beholder who makes it a problem. Those who have a problem with it should reconsider their problems and seek help with their ability to handle it.
Save our Honorable hard earned flag.
Your a special kind of stupid
idiot
Asshole
You’re too political, maybe you should be shot. You know, things like that happen when you start taking down flags, removing statues, suppressing freedom of speech, block traffic, shut down talks for only certain people, burn down buildings (many times those buildings being your own), burning the American flag, attacking people because they don’t go along with your c**p. Yea….I think you should be shot…..you know, because I don’t go along with your c**p.
Idiot. Teach this guy some History.
I’m pretty sure it is, in North Korea. Send him there immediately!
This jerk weed should be sent over to Afghanistan with a BB gun and an Elmer Fudd mash
