How ESPN Ruined their Top Sportscaster 

Not surprising. The only experts on racism are the white supremacists themselves.

Rachel Nichols was never a 'top sportscaste'r. She pushes radical left woke ideology identity politics and as we all know the left eat their own. She got labeled for fake racism and instead of understanding why it happened (Disney owns espn and they cant go after black people for fake racism claims, they have to bow down to the false claims so Rachel got the axe) she doubled down and continues to push that nonsense to this day on other platforms.

idk selling merch and not being able to pronounce the commisioner of the nfls name and the host of PTI just seems wrong. dirty.

As a black man I didn’t hear racism either but as a BLACK MAN you should ask yourself why is this a topic why do blacks have to fight for jobs they can do just as good or better as other races that’s the real issue and it shouldn’t be a issue

@blackpanther3302 believe me I know about that, and even darker days are ahead, because they take a little more everyday. No one has mad any fuss about them doing away with affirmation action.

Good thing you don't speak for all black ppl 😂

Didn't they just dump Maria from the show anyway lol? Not sure she is racist, but she didn't want to step down for her job as any normal person wouldn't. The person they replaced her with is actually more racially driven than Nichols was......maybe that is what they wanted........

Huge fan of Maria Taylor & Rachel Nichols, fucked up of ESPN to create division between these 2 immensly talented journalists.

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAACTS.....!!! Espn did the same💩💩💩💩to stephen a smith suspension awhile back.😕😕😕🤔🤔🤔😠😠😠👎👎👎🪳🪳🪳

Foh no one wanted to see her there anymore, all you white boys love her now huh. The sport is dominated by black men yet all the reporters are white. Oh let me guess cause they're better than the black reporters right , cause the only way the black reporters can get a job is cause of affirmative action. How you racist think

ESPN not collapsing lol

@@ambermavorah ESPN is losing money and Disney is trying to sell all or part of it. So, yes. It is collapsing.

​@@pfpchad2747They signed McAfee to a big deal to bring his podcast show!!

​@@wilnerolivier7971and had to fire a bunch of people to make room for him. Plus they brought him in because he's popular and ESPN desperately needs that when they have clowns like SAS and Perk on TV each day

@@wilnerolivier7971they did that because they’re desperate for ratings also ESPN hates seeing former athlete creating their own podcast and gaining a big audience

Rachel wasn’t qualified, she had spent years around the game and when she had to do anything beyond sideline reporting it was the most vapid and surface level nonsense. Who she was replaced by knew her shit and actually prepped

You're not black but you ppl do this everytime never ends . No one wanted her old a$$ there maybe they wanted a blk reporter covering blk athletes. Cause most of the sport reporters are white but the sport is dominated by black men. But yi dont see you saying anything about that "black man" foh

@@thelinedrive🙄 whatever 🤡

@@thelinedrive then don't promise your reporter, they will have sideline rights to the NBA finals, after she brought in high ratings with exclusive interviews because of her relationships with key NBA stars.

Diversity in sports is hilarious. What, not enough black people in the NBA and NFL?

OK cool but don’t blame the black woman for being at the right place at the right time don’t tell somebody they don’t deserve a salary just because of the political circumstances that arise

@@skywalker2759 ??

Why is such a large portion of the blame placed on the employees simply doing their jobs in this situation?!! Nichols was a patsy. Simple as that! It was bosses making dumb decisions. Taylor and Andrews just reaped the rewards, so to speak.

@@skywalker2759The Political circumstances were created to appear racially inclusive… She is the Token Black Girl…!!! They need to be held accountable for their practices though. There was no real reason to sabotage the career of an unsuspecting innocent professional…!!! The set up is real…!! This shouldn’t happen to anyone...!!!!!💯

She's neither credible nor reputable. Hear about her lies right here on RU-vid.

I agree. Started to watch in 1995 and it was great. Now it's a cesspool of wokeness.

I grew up watching ESPN. I had no idea whether or Dan Patrick, Chris Berman, Stuart Scott voted republican or democrat bc it didn’t matter. But For me the official, “jumping of the shark” is when they gave the Arthur Ashe Hero award, to a person that not only did not deserve in based on actions, but they also had nothing to do with sports. We are calling Kaitlyn Jenner, a hero yet there’s nowhere you can find anything sports related associated with Caitlyn Jenner. On top of that that person did nothing that warranted heroism. There were stories of Noah Galloway war hero that created a fitness program after overcoming his addiction to Pills. Or the story of Lauryn Hill a 19-year-old girl, battling terminal brain cancer that still fulfilled her dream of playing college basketball. The executives at ESPN love the smell of their own farts and love patting each other on the back thinking how woke and special they are

SportsCenter was my nightlight for 20 years. Fall asleep to it, wake up to it hours later. How things change…

@@mcnall34 Lol, I would have ESPN on tv sometimes just for background noise and I DO NOT recommend doing that with Stephen A. Smith.

I agree 💯 ESPN BET MTV and shows like those for me everything is just not the same .

She alluded to the color of the other reporters skin, using the word "diversity". Is she a racist? Since Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson are standing up for her, I definitely believe she's not. Anybody working their dream job would have done the same as her. I real bad for her because she was very good at what she was doing.

the mob? is this the 90s?

​@@lebronjamesharden3958different kinda mob but operating pretty much the same.

Ask any black woman how they feel about that. Y'all won't because you don't care and it doesn't affect you. What she said and things like it are extremely unprofessional and demeaning. How would you feel if someone said you only have the success you do because of the color of your skin. You all act like groups of people are mad over nothing.

@@akaInfamous lol good reach.. they're mad over nothing. It's Rachel was there first and deserved the spot she was in due to work over time she put in. Over time the other lady would've gotten her due just like how she jumped to NBC sports and got paid handsomely. Rachel didn't wanna lose her spot because the company wanted to hop aboard the "diversity train" just to make themselves look good and tick of some boxes. And then think about how demeaning it is for Maria to get a promotion and it only being "well we need to put some more black people in prominent positions so you fit the bill. Here you go." Not because her skill or talent, but because the company wants to look good. Also if the roles were reversed the internet would be outraged.

Its what the diversity mob wants

Nah, ESPN blew it out of proportion!

ESPN tried to make Rachel look bad in order to keep Maria Taylor it backfired big time because Maria ended up leaving for NBC

Think about the time of when she said what she said in 2020-2021. More than COVID it was when BLM movement was a big thing in the country after George Floyd and other situations. Everyone was on their toes about everything. Even the Mahkia Bryant situation happened and Lebron jumped down the cops throat for no reason.

Sweet poetic justice there. Glad to see Rachel on FS1@@chuyozuna2398

Opposite Skip

rachel was getting old, and no longer very appealing. Women live off appearance therefore their career ends earlier. #isjustlife

Well good news, she’s heading to undisputed 💪🏽

Of course all you white boys love her now 😂you ppl are so predictable and funny . Never cared about her before this but now shes your favorite person

​@@chuyozuna2398they should get black reporters to cover black players , she can go report on hockey that's no problem there. They didnt want her old a$$ get over it

Lmao they really went from racheal nichols and Maria taylor to malika andrews

Kendrick Perkins literally said, on national TV, that Nikola Jokic gets MVPs because he's white. Did they fire him? Absolutely not. Compared to Rachel saying on a hot mic (not even televised) that ESPN hired someone because they're black. I just don't understand the double standard.

The sad part she can’t even sue them because ESPN is a corporate entity that could easily bribe the judge and drop the case

I'm not sure this is true, her not giving consent. I say this because, if her privacy was indeed invaded, I'd assume this would lead to a criminal investigation, a wrongful termination case, etc

​@FillyNilly how can you record someone without their consent?

​@FillyNilly how can you record someone without their consent?

@@FillyNilly It did. She settled with ESPN out of court on that. I suspect the people in the bubble knew of some level of monitoring but...why was there audio? And why was it so deep into her space? You don't need to monitor what she does inside her room, just whether she's leaving. Putting the camera right by the door would have been enough--no need to have video and audio (what does that do?) anywhere else inside her room.

Taylor is much more beautiful than Rachel!

@@Landis_Grant What's that got to do with anything? That has nothing to do with what's being disscussed here. By the way, Rachel is not a bad looking woman either, for whatever that's worth.

Maria Taylor sucks too though

Malika is horrible. I no longer watch ESPN simply because of the horrible Malika Andrews. ESPN please get rid of sexist, black men hating Malika!!!

ESPN - WILL STILL BE HERE - OWNED BY- Wait FOR IT- BYRON ALLEN - LOL- YEP- HE IS A BILLIONAIRE

espn will always be here because the usa's version of capitalism is just oligarchy. disney owns everything in media and no matter how bad their products are, they will ALWAYS have control

It's the same ideology that claims to be about individual rights and that judging people based on group identity characteristics is wrong and evil....while OBSESSING about group identity characteristics and BEGGING people to judge them by their group identity characteristics. It's insane.

@@Biggiiful it’s just a power play

Right now we live in a world where it's a sin to be white. Thank saint George Floyd for that.

@@Biggiifuloh the outrage- luv it

But NEPOTISM is ok????

DO U KNOW HER personally?

That's a lie

​@@rcardosanders2885you aren't real.

Well said!

If the Mouse wants you gone....you're gone😂

She’s mostly did college football when was at ESPN, she’s currently on NBC doing the pregame show of Sunday night football

Appreciate it bro 🙏

Maria Taylor is also talented- she was on the SEC good ole boy network- they did not complain- that is why NBC hired her.

A good question. "They agreed to it" doesn't work if it's coerced or framed as part of the employment, I think. If your boss said "I'm putting cameras inside the bathrooms so I can watch all the female employees in there, quit if you don't like it," it wouldn't fly. It would be discrimination, sexual harassment, etc. You can't just wave that away with "you consented" because that's how we get these sorts of abuses in the first place.

Fk espn

because you obviously cant have both a white and black woman hosting the nba finals....

"It did highlight the struggle of inclusion; sometimes its going to hurt a few for the greater good of progress." I don't think you realize how you just revealed how dark that ideology really is and can be and HAS been throughout history. All in the name of "progress." Real inclusion would not have innocent victims being taken out "in the name of progress". An immature and self righteous ideology that could go to very dark places under the right circumstances is the only type of ideology that could be so comfortable saying what you just said, but still thinking it's a "positive" thing and that there's not something very wrong with it already.

Maria Taylor left ESPN LMAO shes on another station anyway

No "progress" for the "greater good" occurs when one employee is asked to step aside because of her race to make way for someone else because of her race...and then when the employee asked to step aside says "no", record her without her knowledge, and fire her for comments that weren't even racist. That wasn't "progress", and no "greater good" was served. It was wrong to treat Nichols that way. It stunk to high heaven, and asking her to step aside was racist in itself.

She’s the liberal version of Sage Steele 😂😂😂

Don’t use what others did to discredit Maria, this situation sucks for both not just Rachel

It's well deserved for all the stupid takes they had for years

HOW DO U FEEL ABOUT Pat McAfee- with his tank top??? wearing it on his show????

@@pierrerochon7271 never watched the show. Don’t even know who he is.

Exactly, I hate how people wanna discredit Maria Taylor

They need diversity because the vast majority of professional sport athletes are black

As a black man she did insinuated highly racist mind set. Jealously

Thanks man

Amen to that!
