ESPN will lay off 100 on-air personalities and writers, source says

ESPN plans to lay off 100 on-air personalities and writers, a source familiar with the matter told CNNMoney on Wednesday.

The job cuts, including television, radio and online personalities, will be announced Wednesday, and most will take effect immediately, the source said. ESPN also plans to cut what the source described as a limited number of additional off-air jobs.

The cord-cutting is hitting ESPN hard. The empire will have to evolve or continue decomposing. They've overspent for their college football content, so the on-air personalities and writers take the fall.

Is he coming for Joey Knight's job?

Not the first time for BMc...at least this time it wasn't because he killed readership at a local rag.

 

Hope he lands on his feet somewhere.

Who would you rather have as your USF beat writer.  Brett McMurphy or Joey Knight.

He breaks a ton of news and is pretty well connected.  He will land on his feet somewhere.
