ESPN is one of the biggest hypocrites on the planet. On one side of things they are “woke” and let people like Jemile Hill say some rather offensive things (she comes across as an anti-semite to me) but suspend Linda Cohn and cancel others who do not follow directives. I am a Green Party guy, not a right winger but I find the double standard at BSPN very disturbing, especially concerning China. They go all in for human rights in the States because it is the “PC” thing to do and it garners ratings but basically ignore all the horrible things that are occuring in China and promote elitist tools like Lebron who is even a bigger hypocrite than BSPN itself. I quit watching that junk a long time ago
The Communist Chinese government figured out long ago that the way to beat capitalism is to tease it with their enormous “market,” learn their secrets, then pull the rug out. Sounds rather Confucian, doesn’t it?
Whre is the Mouse at these discussions? Mickey is majority owner of ESPN. (I would expect Mickey to be waving Chinese flags while sitting on a money-chair)

I still wear masks whenever I’m in a large crowd.

That is funny, the thought that they actually debated it for an instant

Fox didn’t even bother to hold their nose for the World Cup.

We must express ourselves about the abuses of the Chinese government, but we have to ask them about what we should say.

ESPN, governments and other major organisations who make their money be ignoring what they should be calling out
