astroboy483 The First Amendment allows you to say whatever you’d like without fear of being censored by the GOVERNMENT. There are of course limitations to this. You cannot incite crime or violence, make actual threats, or create or share obscene material.

However, ESPN is not the government. It’s a privately held company and their employees are not free from the consequences of their words. They had every right to fire Schilling for his comments.
