Other Sports What? No Whitlock canned at ESPN thread?

This place is slipping.

Quote:

Jason Whitlock, hired by ESPN to launch a new Web site, instead has had his contract bought out. This ends the second go-round between the writer/pundit and the sports media giant, and it adds to the uncertainty about the project Whitlock had been overseeing before being ousted from it in June.

Whitlock, who made an acrimonious departure from ESPN in 2006, had been brought back in 2013 to create and launch The Undefeated, a Web site widely thought of as a “black Grantland.” Whereas the latter Web site was filtered through Bill Simmons’s sports-and-pop-culture sensibility (before his own unhappy separation from ESPN), The Undefeated was meant to analyze the intersection between sports and race.

He was blatantly trying to rip off my friend's company. I let him know and he said he'd contact his lawyers. I think I may have helped get this intellectual property thief fired.
