EPSN has taken a lot of heat lately for the prominence of left-wing politics on their telecasts, but they’re not the only ones combining politics and sport. This week, an NBC Sports personality attacked the presence of American flags at baseball games.
One would think that other networks would have learned from ESPN’s troubles. For many, the outrage against the ESPN began with Collin Kaepernick. When the 49er QB sparked controversy for kneeling during the national anthem, one ESPN personality called the protest “a wonderful thing.” In December, it was revealed that the network lost half-a-million subscribers, much of which was attributed to the network’s far-left politics.
NBC Sports writer Craig Calcaterra doesn’t appear deterred by ESPN’s woes. Instead, he seems to be emulating the behavior that has gotten his colleagues at ESPN in so much trouble. In fact, his comments were so anti-American, it could be argued that his views are even more controversial.

STFU
The US Flag is for every US citizen. How could it be political?
A spoiled child wanting attention, you have mine and hopefully enough others to demand your removal, son you seem to have forgotten where you live.
Calcaterra is dead wrong. Right now, this country needs to be reminded that we are a country. We need to be reminded every day and it’s not going to happen watching C-Span, ABC, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, or CBS. Tune in there and you’ll see absolute polarization, biased reporting, F**e reporting, and F**e news. Take a little personal time and fact check everything of importance you see or read and you’ll find that most news is designed to grab your attention so that advertisements get seen which, of course, means MONEY. Let’s all get smart and get the truth…it’s right there between your ears, not on the telly.
You don’t like our flag live the country jackass
american hating liberals…fire his ass
The Flag is a symbol of America..not a political party. Ignorance is a choice. If he does not like America…he can leave. No one will care.
Well look at the little Snowflake blabbing his big mouth
HE SHOULD BE FIRED
You bet it’s political!! How many Americans gave their lives, so we can wave it freely!!
