9805: ESPN Displays Linsensitivity.


Add ESPN to the list of idiots engaging in Linsensitivity. The iconic sports network posted a racist headline on its mobile website that prompted the following official statement on its regular website:
Last night, ESPN.com’s mobile web site posted an offensive headline referencing Jeremy Lin at 2:30 am ET. The headline was removed at 3:05 am ET. We are conducting a complete review of our cross-platform editorial procedures and are determining appropriate disciplinary action to ensure this does not happen again. We regret and apologize for this mistake.
