Clearly the fault didn't lie with a lack of privacy. It wasn't like this show was at somebody's house. It was at the house of blues--maybe that's where he got mixed up. Again, if the slur had been racist/non-Christian and outside the family of ESPN, it would've been run ad nauseum by ESPN. It's amazing that even after tasting their own medicine ESPN doesn't have the grace to admit one of their own fucked up. Clearly the problem wasn't that she and others were saying inappropriate things in the name of comedy. It was that one specific person stepped out of bounds to a point that demands apology and consequences. ESPN’s response was a cop-out. Clearly the fault didn’t lie with a lack of privacy.

Gee they gave up roasts what a tremendous sacrifice. It was a useless attempt on saying something useful and meaningful. Gee they gave up roasts what a tremendous sacrifice.

Saying "you know what, we cant have these events anymore because the tactless, malicious and insensitive things we like to say will get out in the world" is weak. He should've said that they're not doing those things anymore because some employees are morons, and then he should've fired her. He's essentially saying that they have to watch what they say because people will find out about. Not 'we shouldn't say the wrong things'. Lame. I actually think the response is a pretty big cop-out.
