Former ESPN personality Dan Le Batard has criticized the network’s recent layoffs, which included the departure of Ryan Clark. Le Batard claimed that ESPN is now run by McAfee and ‘White people’, and targeted OutKick for its reporting on the layoffs.
Le Batard’s Comments
Le Batard made the comments on his show, stating that all the Black people who were going to say things that Black people agree with strongly are now gone from ESPN. He also accused OutKick of being a ‘dishonest entity’ and claimed that the company is ‘covered in s–t stains’.
OutKick had reported on the layoffs, including the departure of Ryan Clark, and Le Batard took issue with the company’s reporting. He claimed that OutKick is not a legitimate media outlet and that it is ‘perpetual grift’.
However, OutKick has pushed back against Le Batard’s claims, stating that the company is a legitimate media outlet that drives the national conversation about sports and American culture. OutKick also pointed out that Le Batard did not respond to requests for proof of his claims about the company’s ‘dishonesty’.
