Snowflake historically refers to people who were against the abolition of slavery.

the modern definition is those whose immense white fragility causes a meltdown when confronted with the most minute deviation from orthodox White Supremacy.

Example: A snowflake told me that Colin Kirpatrick taking a knee during national anthem is unamerican.

Certainly it was not a good idea to insert their political leanings into their sports coverage, but their economic downfall has more to do with subscribers dropping their cable plans in favor of streaming coverage with services like apple TV, Sling, etc... I think you can place equal blame on the cable and satellite monopolies as you can on Disney's political agenda. I liken this to Blockbuster showing up late to the game with regard to services like amazon prime and netflix. They are in a transition, it will be interesting to see how this pans out.

I agree with Balm's thoughts. Cohn, however, has been there a long time and has seen the changes.

they have definitely changed since Disney took them over. Like a lot of you, I watch ESPN for one reason, Clemson football. I could care less about anything beyond that. As a liberal They could be far right leaning and I would still pay to watch the games.
