ESPN pulls Robert Lee

RE: ESPN pulls Robert Lee
Her point, Brian, was that there was nothing in his name to be sensitive about. I don't think there is really anything to avoid other than the perception that they intentionally chose him to be the commentator for that game because of his name. I think they could have probably shown that pretty easily.

They chose to try and avoid a situation that would have been manufactured for the sensation of it if at all.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
