“LeBron (James)… Has a Fragile Ego”: Years After ESPN Fired Female Millionaire, NBA Fans Erupt Over Stephen A. Smith’s Ex-Colleague’s Rachel Nichols Admission

LeBron James has been in the basketball business for the best part of the last two decades. His hard work and dedication towards his craft has made him one of the greatest players of all-time. And his continued dominance for over two decades has made him one of the most influential athletes. He has gained unparalleled authority in all strata of basketball and sometimes King James isn’t shy about wielding that influence.

A former ESPN host revealed that LeBron had an impact on her firing from ESPN and that he helped Rachel Nichols in getting that position.

LeBron’s Impact on Beadle’s Firing

Born on October 23, 1975, in Italy, Michelle Beadle is a famous sports journalist and TV personality known for her dynamic presence in sports broadcasting. She gained prominence as a co-host on ESPN’s “SportsNation” and later as a host on ESPN’s “NBA Countdown.” Beadle’s career also includes roles at other major networks, including NBC and the sports and pop culture website The Ringer.

Beadle lately spilled the beans regarding her firing for ESPN. She went in depth on what happened behind the scenes on the Awful Announcing podcast. She alluded to the fact that LeBron had an impact on her sacking by ESPN. She said, “Yeah, you know, he’s a powerful dude. I mean, there’s no getting around that he is an empire and an entity upon himself. All the respect for building such a powerful entity on a name and doing it well. So yeah, people are going to listen”.
