ESPN plans another big round of layoffs
ESPN reportedly plans another big round of layoffs in the coming weeks
BY PETE GRATHOFF

NOVEMBER 10, 2017 9:10 AM


Once upon a time, “SportsCenter” was must-see television for fans. But ESPN’s one-time signature program apparently will be at the center of another round of layoffs that reportedly will happen in the coming weeks.

Sports Illustrated reported that more than 100 people will lose their jobs after Thanksgiving. This is from the SI story:

The layoffs, which were described by a person briefed on the plans, will hit positions across ESPN including front-facing talent on the television side, producers, executives, and digital and technology staffers. The SportsCenter franchise is expected to be hit hard—including on-air people—given the frequency of the show has lessened considerably on main network ESPN.

As more people drop cable in favor of streaming, ESPN has felt the financial pinch. In April, ESPN cut a number of long-time journalists as part of a round of layoffs that included 100 people.

According to the Los Angeles Times, ESPN weighed down the earnings of its parent company, Walt Disney, in a report on Thursday. The Times said that Disney’s “revenue declined 3 percent and the company failed to meet analysts’ expectations.”

The holiday season may seem like a harsh time to shed jobs. But Sports Illustrated said one reason why ESPN is planning the layoffs between Thanksgiving and Christmas is so employees can received another year in the stock vesting program.

ESPN layoffs most I'm glad but two suck - Suzy Kolber, she was good on sideline and NFL pregame stuff and Ashley Brewer, late night SportsCenter who was smoking hot and good at her job.

Not crazy about it. Last round seemed to be more about these shock jock opinionaters. This round seems more focused on people who know sports. Hate what they turned kellerman into but he was once a terrific boxing. Have a bad feeling it’s a sign that they’re gonna double down on this shitty shouty opinion shit.

Would not have expected Young or Kolber. Namath with Kolber is one of my all time favorite sports moments. Struggg ling

Getting rid of Ashley Brewer as well, wonder if they are getting rid of the LA SportsCenter and just doing it all from Bristol.

ESPN would know through the traffic and video views which of the draft guys get the most hits, I'm sure Kiper's mocks do the trick.
