Is there a left leaning sports channel on broadcast?

Don't listen much because there is no sports happening. But places like Barstool Sports thrive.....Why? Lots of it is the usual Republican talking points....but the white guys at BSS have to be careful about the balck atheletes.... Big quandry.

Ed. note a producer at BSS was a very capable QB and buddy of my son. Smart, Bowdoin College grad. Thinks he is a big fish, but he was also producing Howie Carr's. show Produced the well known libertarian and flame out Kurt Minnihane. So, I know where is head is at.

1. I don't know if Keith Olbermann counts

but I watch/read his twitter stuff just for his political views. Right now he is reading from Thurber while getting in the face of the baseball owners.

2. ESPN has several shows with black and POC hosts that have been discussing...

the protests and the stances of black athletes from many sports as to their wanting to resume play or not while the pandemic is afoot and the protest, which they are in sympathy with—"Get Up", "First Take", "Jalen and Jacoby", "Pardon the Interruption", "The Jump", among others.
