At ESPN, we embrace different points of view — dialogue and discussion makes this place great. That said, we expect that those points of view be expressed respectfully, in a manner consistent with our values, and in line with our internal policies.

Absolutely fuck corporations.

From what I'm reading, it seems ESPN is saying one thing, while doing another.
You can't say that you respect someone's view and then punish them when they express it. This is nothing more than a continuation of corporate authoritarianism. Basically, what they're saying is, "you're not allowed to say absolutely anything that doesn't align with what we deem you're allowed to say."
This shit really needs to stop.
If they don't like people calling their policy scary, then how about not forcing people to get injected with an experimental biological agent, you stupid assholes?
How is an employee expressing fear for their health and safety "disrespectful, against your values, or against policy"?
Seems to me to be bullshit. Only thing I see that she did was express herself in a normal and perfectly rational way on each topic mentioned. She's allowed to have an opinion. They just didn't like that her views didn't align with their cult's dogma.

Yup, reminds me of when Disney fired Gina Carano for pointing out that non-Leftists were (and still are) being censored and persecuted by the Cult of Communists.

I'm pretty sure they issued a similar statement as their subsidiary ESPN, saying the same thing?
