ESPN Reportedly Suspends Adrian Wojnarowski For Emailing ‘F**k You’ To Missouri Senator Josh Hawley
ESPN has reportedly suspended NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski one day after he sent a profane email to Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, telling him “f–k you.” The email was sent out after Hawley blasted the league for “kowtowing to Beijing and refusing to support U.S. Military and Law Enforcement.”
After tweeting, “If @NBA is going to put social cause statements on uniforms, why not “Support our Troops” or “Back the Blue”? Or given how much $$ @nba makes in #China, how about “Free Hong Kong”! Today I wrote to Adam Silver to ask for answers,” a press release was sent out, spawning the profane response from Wojnarowski.

After Howley blasted the email on his Twitter, the ESPN’s official account responded, “This is completely unacceptable behavior and we do not condone it. It is inexcusable for anyone working for ESPN to respond in the way Adrian did to Senator Hawley. We are addressing it directly with Adrian and specifics of those conversations will remain internal.” Wojnarowski then tweeted an apology, “I was disrespectful and I made a regrettable mistake. I’m sorry for the way I handled myself and I am reaching out immediately to Senator Hawley to apologize directly. I also need to apologize to my ESPN colleagues because I know my actions were unacceptable and should not reflect on any of them.” A day later, sports publication ‘Outkick‘ reported that a source told them Wojnarowski was suspended, specifics still unknown.
