He's been suspended 30 days.
Aka ESPN doesn't really care about what he said and did this just because they had to.

Parker was on a Detroit television show and told the host that the show's producers were aware of what he was going to say

Sounds like the producers, dumb as they may be, thought it was okay at the time. Since it obviously didn't sit well, Parker is the scapegoat.jordo212000;1361247 wrote:Parker was on a Detroit television show and told the host that the show's producers were aware of what he was going to say
Or, Parker is lying, and they didn't know.
Either way, who cares. One less moron we have to listen to.

Rob Parker to file lawsuit against ESPN for discriminatory practices involved in this incident.
What a joke.

You don't run a show on live TV without producers knowing about the content. At the very least, they knew he was going to bring up the topic. How else would they know what to put at the bottom of the screen while Parker and Skip debated?
He's just the scapegoat, but I'm sure a producer got fired or suspended too. It was a dumb topic, no one (not even black viewers) care if RGIII is "black" enough.
