People that had jobs at ESPN today, won’t have jobs tomorrow. Or so I hope. 

This is both disgusting and disturbing. No real words can describe how low of a person it takes to write that headline.

EDIT: Everyone contact ESPN and demand that whoever wrote this and every single person that laid eyes on it and said nothing about it be reprimanded.

That’s just awful. 

My perhaps naive reaction is that it is a genuine mistake, and maybe an optimistic sign that someone writing headlines wouldn’t have realized it because they don’t have the word “chink” as a perjorative in their head. So maybe that word, as a racial slur, is vanishing — and this is just a humorous and ironic piece of evidence of how it’s going away. An ignorant wordsmith, but not an insensitive person.
