If I don't think exactly like you i'm retarded? Lol
In this case, yes.

Thank you for admitting that you are an insecure fanatic. People like you don't know the difference between thinking and feeling.In this case, yes.
They closed 200+ stores recently. But they do have 5000+ stores in the US. Target has less than 2000 stores. Not only that but they are planning on opening 80+ stores next year. So yeah ummm they seem ok. Just closed stores that were poorly located and not making money.
Saying that ESPN is dwindling due to politics seems a bit off.
Rather, people aren't watching ESPN simply because people are cutting their cable.
We cut ours and just use a box antenna we got from Home Depot.
Others simply stream what they want to watch.
Not sure wtf you are watching, but every time I put on SportsCenter, SVP and the like are covering sports....This was funny... "At the same time, ESPN has faced allegations of political bias in its coverage. Network executives have repeatedly denied the accusations and earlier this month released a new social media policy for employees. The policy urges ESPN employees to avoid political discussions on social platforms."
Anybody ever actually watch ESPN? Every time I turn it on it's nothing but political bullshit... and as far as bias goes how can they possibly deny they are anything except for far left?
I'm glad this entire channel is suffering... these are the fucking clowns who force politics on sports fans and it's annoying.

Should probably head back to your FS1 safe space .
I love how when companies play politics, and receive backlash for it, it's NEVER about the politics to the political aisle the company pandered to.
NFL ratings tanking:
"It's been going downhill for a while. Nothing to do with players shitting on the flag and anthem, in front of their yee-haw patriotic fan base."
Target suddenly closing down stores:
"It's just the way it is. Department stores are going away. Nothing at all to with the transgender bathroom issue, they made a spectacle of."
ESPN laying people off:
"People are just cutting the cord. Absolutely nothing to do with them going full CNN."
Obviously there are many factors, but it isn't any coincidence that the companies who have decided to stick their nose out and pick sides in the political spectrum, are the ones suffering most recently.
Fair enough.To be fair I rarely turn it on anymore unless they're showing Little League Baseball. haha When I do scroll through I see a ton of political debate about team owners, trades, rule changes, etc. While I guess that's technically sports talk it's also very political and it gets old... especially with the Kapernick bullshit. To each their own but I would have zero problem if ESPN ceased to exist.
Until something concrete is released about any shortcomings, any assumption that Papa Dolan is behind this is just assinine.
Trump wouldn't have much to do with it, regardless. People don't want sports and politics to mix. At least not as pervasively as ESPN is going about it. If it makes you feel better, they'd be met with the same sort of backlash, if they started pervasively promoting a certain religion every single day.
But hey, way to counter my point of people using the old "people are cutting the cord" excuse, by using the "people are cutting the cord" excuse. I know it's hard for you Libs to believe that people don't want Liberal bullshit thrust in their face everyday, but hey, if Trump becoming President didn't clue you into that, then nothing little old ESPN does will ever convince you.
Because it's a valid excuse? I personally know about 5 people off the top of my head that canceled their Cable TV subscription within the last year. Again, it's not out of the realm of possibility that these layoffs are due to that fact. Until something more concrete is released that you leaving your TV off on Sunday is doing anything more than making you look like a goof, then it's asinine to assume that's the cause....or even part of the cause.
What side do you think represents a larger demographic of sports fans, and watch the most sports? Republicans or Democrats?
If you said Democrats, you're wrong. It's no fucking mystery that shoving Liberal politics down your mostly Conservative fan base's throats, is going to be met with backlash. To say there is no correlation between ESPN's very recent woes, and it's hyper Liberal bias, is absurd.
In other news, Marvel's comic department is tanking because printed media is dying, and has absolutely nothing to do with their recent SJW agenda. Nothing at all. Thor's a girl now, and it's awesome.
Lol, keep your TV off on Sunday Heretic, I'm sure you're making a huge difference!
Meanwhile, the rest of us who arent Trumpettes will be watching some football!
Oh, you should totally order papa johns too, I heard his sales are faltering after blaming the protests for his woes
He's conservative to boot too!
