ESPN spanks golf analyst for tweet about Obama

UPDATE: ESPN is coming down on Paul Azinger for mocking President Barack Obama on Twitter. The golf analyst tweeted Friday that the Commander-in-chief plays more golf than he does -- and that Azinger has created more jobs this month than Obama has.


ESPN has 'reminded" Azinger his venture into political punditry violates the company's updated social network policy for on-air talent and reporters issued yesterday.


"Paul's tweet was not consistent with our social media policy, and he has been reminded that political commentary is best left to those in that field," spokesman Andy Hall told Game On! in a statement.

Likewise, someone should point out to Presidents past, present, and future, that Sports are best left to those in that field.
ie, feel free to focus on the country once in a while.

This is what happens when grown men "tweet".

Well, he's lucky that he didn't get the same treatment the Dixie Chicks got for their words about Bush. Therefore, he has no complaint.
