he following day, McAfee, on his show, addressed the ratings and accused Norby Williamson, ESPN’s Executive Editor and Head of Event and Studio Production, of actively sabotaging his program.
McAfee admitted to lacking concrete proof but boldly singled out Williamson during the live broadcast.
ESPN’s Response and Handling of the Feud
In response to McAfee’s accusations, ESPN released a statement affirming Norby Williamson’s commitment to the network’s success.
