Poor Bastard Of The Moment: Kyle Whelliston

He says on ESPN.com that the economy is forcing The Worldwide Leader to essentially cut his workload (and presumably his pay) in half. An hour later, he gets shitcanned by ESPN, probably because he was honest to everyone about what was going to happen and why. The why is particularly galling; the recession ain't no secret, and it's not a crime to cut workload in anticipation of falling profits. But because Whelliston told his readers about the move, they had just cause to fire him?

Bullshit.
