Montana State Broadcaster Fired After Comparing Portland Antifa, Chicago’s South Side
Breitbart News reports:
"Montana State basketball broadcaster Mark Martello was fired Monday for criticizing big cities such as Chicago and Portland for the liberal policies making them dangerous places to live.
In a Monday statement, the school said that a decision had been made to remove Martello from the Learfield broadcast team and that he would be replaced by Zach Mackey — at least for the rest of the 2022 season.
The school did not explain why Martello was fired, but he raised eyebrows for his comments during Saturday’s women’s basketball game between Montana State and Portland State.
But Martello himself said that Learfield Vice President of Broadcast Operations Tom Boman fired him after Portland reporter Joe Terry tweeted about the broadcaster’s comments during the game."
