ESPN Puts Sage Steele On Brief Hiatus After Her Controversial Comments Went Viral | THR News

The Hollywood Reporter

[BishopWalters]

How dare she have an opinion that doesn't match up with woke zombies.

[keithmclaughlin]

She has opinions. Freedom of speech is important.

[sisnce]

espn gave the arthur ash award to Caitlyn Jenner.. i lost all respect for them after that..lol

[mikehochburns]

What did she say that was so controversial? It doesn’t sound like espn embraces different points of view.

[deanbacon]

It wasn't that controversial, it was her opinion based on her own experiences, her statement was given with fully vetted merit

[armoriya]

1st. Some people will never learn when to keep their mouths shut. Lacking self-awareness, self control, and accountability.

[eerockstar]

This seems like a stunt to get out of that ESPN contract for greener pastures.

[gym]

She is gasping for straws, and desperately trying to tell that other side (that views her as a tool and they know it better than she dose) I’m worthy … please accept me… look I’m willing to stand up Against them … I’m willing to stick it to them…. Please please accept me

[ITIonoxide]

I agree with everything she said. Based.

[KayExposesTruth]

She's lucky to still have a job... she's grossly controversial and appears to have self hate.

[adrianfrancis]

Why is the truth so offensive to mankind? There should be a research for that.

[itsthehouse]

Her comments about dress in the work place are BANG ON. The Obama thing sounds like the Gyal has a little identity issue. Idc who raised him..thats a Black man.

[rmgdmv]

BEEN tired of Sage Steele commenting. I NEVER watch ESPN when I see this woman.

[oldsalt]

The truth hurts the Snowflakes and Wokes.

[jameswalter]

Come on Sage u know better than that we're in a time where everyone gets butt hurt over someone else's opinion. Don't ever tell truth either that will definitely cost you ur job smh.

[politicallil]

Why are people always apologizing just stand on what you standing on I mean you can either justify what you saying or you just talking loud and saying nothing, these people act like they are on their own platform, that's why the Bible advises us to be slow to speak I mean employ some thought before opening your mouth. Not every thought in your head needs to be said.

[spartans]

If more black people thought like her this would be a better world

[putinscat]

You can now take your proud mixed race a.. to the unemployment line.

[bamagirl]

No matter who she was “raised” by she’s black, even though she may be disgusted by that side of herself. When she goes out into the world. She is Black not biracial. So deal with it sister 😍

[politicallil]

Biracial people can identify the way they want with what said they do what is advantageous to themselves. If they got the look to access whiteness that is what they choose. For Obama, he felt his Black identity gave him the best chance to fulfill his dream. Mrs. Sage is not a family counselor besides what business is his identity to her. She should be charged with "aggravated stupidity" and removed from her position what she forgot she is an employee representing her employer's platform?
