Woj suspended: Reports state the time period of Adrian Wojnarowski’s suspension
‘Woj suspended’ and ‘Free Woj’ have been trending all over since the announcement of his suspension. Reports state the exact timeline of it.
Adrian was suspended by ESPN when Senator Josh Hawley made his email public. Woj had sent a profane mail to the senator in reply to the newsletter published by the latter’s office. Senator Hawley wrote an open letter to the NBA commissioner Adam Silver in which he criticized the league for its connections with China. Josh also questioned the league on allowing social messages to be printed instead of their names on their players’ jerseys.
Why is Woj suspended?
Adrian wrote an abusive mail to the Senator in an uncharacteristic manner. The analyst is widely respected around the league for his reliable information. Woj realized his mistake and issued an apology to the Senator on twitter. However, ESPN suspended him for his immature behavior.
