Curt Schilling pulled from ESPN’s Little League World Series broadcasts
ESPN has removed Curt Schilling from its Little League World Series coverage after his stupid tweet about Muslims and Nazis.
“Curt’s tweet was utterly unacceptable, and on no account represents our firm’s perspective”, the learn.
For starters, how could someone reliably cite the percentage of Germans who aligned themselves with the Nazi party 80 FREAKIN’ YEARS AGO!
Though, this time Schilling’s daring will hurt his career instead of helping it. In the past, Schilling posted a cartoon featuring a terrorist with blood on his hands and a joke about a suicide bombing.
The tweet re-posted a meme that reads: “It’s said only 5-10% of Muslims are extremists“.
Shilling has been a baseball analyst for ESPN since 2010.
Peter King blasted ESPN’s decision to suspend analyst Curt Schilling over a tweet comparing radical Islamists to Nazis. According to the Facebook photo he shared, it came from BREAK UP the IRS’ feed. Was ESPN right to suspend him?
“I understand and accept my suspension”, Schilling said in a tweet Tuesday. Further, the gaming company he founded prior to his retirement, 38 Studios, went bankrupt, despite a $75 million loan guarantee from Rhode Island taxpayers. He also responded to another user who pointed out the exact percentage of Germans voting for Hitler in 1932-1933.
