Around the Horn's Cancellation is Journalistically Dumb

ESPN canceled long-time program Around the Horn, a staple for both Sean and Joey during their formative years and into adulthood. The show had a terrific run, but we're more concerned with what ESPN is replacing it with: nothing of note.

We're running out of shows that highlight sports journalism and instead just want talking heads that can either break news or yell at each other. And sure, ATH had those moments of banter, as well, but it was often grounded with respect and journalistic integrity. It's going to be rough having less of that on the airwaves.
