Colin Cowherd Has Some Thoughts on ESPN Hiring Jason Whitlock
By Jason McIntyre
Colin Cowherd appears to be the first member of ESPN to chime in on the network’s hiring of Jason Whitlock. Here’s a snippet; he went on for nearly three minutes.
"“He’s kind of a controversial columnist who has been critical of ESPN .. We just hired Keith Olbermann, who is a controversial, polarizing figure who has been critical of ESPN … if you hold grudges in our business, you’re just losing out on really good people. It’s a lot like pro sports … We’re in the business of hiring unique voices.”"
So. Who’s the next unique voice ESPN will be hiring? Or is John Skipper finished acquiring talent for the summer?
