2020 STUFF ABOUT SPORTS MEDIA THREAD

Did Wingo just want out of ESPN?  The rumor going around in late summer was that Wingo informed management that he wasn't going to sign a new contract for Golic and Wingo because he didn't like the hours.  The other rumor was that he was going to be part of the new morning show with Keyshawn, but that didn't happen.  When the dust settled, Wingo was the one left without an on-air spot (though Golic's Twitter has given the impression he expects to be leaving ESPN for good when football season is over).

Dan Le Batard is leaving ESPN:

 

I really hope that this ends up with him doing his own thing with fewer restrictions, because it has become abundantly clear that ESPN had no idea what to do with him and his show despite it being arguably their most popular radio show.

To revisit that Manish Mehta story for a second - the Daily News FINALLY removed Mehta from the beat and Mehta has deleted his Twitter account

Rumblings are the Washington Post is about to drop a major story about the whole thing and the Daily News is trying to get out in front of it

The irony here is that Duncan is one of the two reporters Steele tried to get fired because she (Steele) claimed that they kept her off the "Time For Change" round table about black athletes and racial injustice

Also - the news was announced as Duncan was headed to hospital to give birth
