The WORST example of how IDEOLOGY is, working ITS M-A-G-I-C (more like VOODOO!) if you ask me, off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The tearing down of the statue of General Robert E. Lee during the Civil War in the U.S. continued to affect modern day people, the Asian ESPN sportscast, Robert Lee was scapegoated in the process.  On the 22nd, ESPN switched Lee off the scenes in the football games of Virginia University, to NOT offend any of the viewers.  And, ESPN’s decisions had gotten bad comments from all around, been accused of getting too addicted to the politically correctness of things.

On the 22nd, ESPN proved, that the Asian sportscaster, Robert Lee who was supposed to report on the football games in Virginia University, his name being too similar to General Lee, and there was recently, the incident of white supremacist ramming his car into the people with the opposing views, the sports station already decided, to have another newscaster to follow the games.

The spokesperson of ESPN stated, that switching Lee out from reporting the games was a decision that both the station and Lee had, agreed upon, and, everybody relating to the events believed it was, the right thing to do, without realizing, that it would cause a huge scene.

Robert Lee still hadn’t come forth to give his thoughts, and only tweeted that his first job was making the commentary on a minor league baseball game on the 22nd; based off of the LinkedIn databases, he lives in Albany, New York, is fluent in Mandarin, in 1999, he’d received a degree from the Journalism Department of the Syracuse University, and was hired by ESPN last September.

The mainstream media and the online community on the 23rd, voiced their displeasure toward ESPN, and questioned on how would the members of the audience even think about General Lee who’d been dead for over 140 years?

The reporter, Cindy Boren of Washington Post stated that ESPN was “stupid”, believed, that switching Lee off would silence the minorities, instead, switching Lee had, caused a bigger uprising of sorts.

Yeah uh, this, is plain, STUPID!  I mean, when the F*** (feel free to SUE!) did the U.S. (with the constitution mentioning FREE SPEECH???) be so narrow, huh?  Or maybe, ESPN believed, that switching Lee off, was going to make the nonexistent, invisible voices of complaints go away?  They should’ve cross-checked FIRST, like did a poll of sorts, to see how this man’s reporting techniques were either popular, or unpopular, among the viewers, before they took him off the scenes!
