ESPN’s Lee Corso drops F-Bomb
ESPN updates tweeting rules for employees
Do not break news on Twitter. We want to serve fans in the social sphere, but the first priority is to ESPN news and information efforts. Public news (i.e. announced in news conferences) can be distributed without vetting. However, sourced or proprietary news must be vetted by the TV or Digital news desks. Once reported on an ESPN platform, that news can (and should) be distributed on Twitter and other social sites.
I understand why they did it, but I don’t like the term “Breaking News” to come with an asterisk.

“SportsCenter massive fail: DJ Steve Porter mixes Moss’s most infamous quotes then Porter turns around in a Moss jersey, afro & blackface.” - Touré
Twitter is going nuts over it right now, and it sure does look suspicious. But as it turns out, Steve Porter was simply wearing one of these masks — which Moss himself sold on his web site. - Deadspin
“Here’s what Kornheiser said that got him into hot water: “Hannah Storm in a horrifying, horrifying outfit today. She’s got on red go-go boots and a Catholic school plaid skirt … way too short for somebody in her 40s or maybe early 50s by now. She’s got on her typically very, very tight shirt. She looks like she has sausage casing wrapping around her upper body … I know she’s very good, and I’m not supposed to be critical of ESPN people, so I won’t … but Hannah Storm … come on now! Stop! What are you doing? … She’s what I would call a Holden Caulfield fantasy at this point.”
