"You do not have permission to use it as I've told you numerous times in DMs. Shouldn't have laid off all those reporters if you wanted locker room content."
"ESPN has seen major changes to its talent roster as a result of numerous rounds of layoffs. On the basketball side of things, the company stunned the industry when it let go of analysts Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson—two-thirds of ESPN's top broadcast team."
Dane Moore, a Minnesota Timberwolves beat reporter, posted a video from the team's locker room featuring an interview with Anthony Edwards about defensive coverage strategies. ESPN's assignment desk requested permission to use the video across its channels through social media and direct messages. Moore refused the request, stating he had already denied ESPN multiple times in private messages. He criticized ESPN for laying off numerous reporters and analysts, including Jeff Van Gundy, Mark Jackson, and Zach Lowe, suggesting the network should not expect access to locker room content after reducing its journalism staff.
