Roger L. Simon: GREGG EASTERBROOK AND ME
"But Easterbrook also informed me of something else that is highly disturbing. He has been fired from his job at ESPN. Gregg takes full responsibility for this (he wrote the original words that he regrets), but I, as one of his harshest critics, believe that ESPN has vastly overreacted. I urge them to reconsider their decision. I don�t think anybody who attacked Easterbrook wanted to see him fired. I certainly didn�t. To the degree that I am even remotely responsible for this I humbly apologize. I can only say this is another example of what we all know�words have consequences."
