Brady confirmed to The Daily Beast that he has had talks with G/O Media, but added "Not really seeking an industry job at the moment; my focus is on continuing to build my consulting business."
The network had six ombudsmen/public editors over 13 years.
“It’s fair to say that, right from the start, there were execs who were conflicted about [covering WWE]. It doesn’t feel like, to a lot of them, something we should be doing.”
"It’s not the job of Hill -- or any other ESPN journalist, for that matter -- to concern herself with the network’s business relationships. In fact, the separation of “church and state” is a longstanding core concept in any news organization worth its salt."
"I just think there's a line crossed between disagreeing with a column and becoming very personal and nasty about it."
Brady, ESPN's public editor, is also the CEO of Spirited Media, which owns The Incline.
Brady engaged with his critics for hours Friday, but many of his follow-up tweets took criticism too.
New ESPN political guidelines may pose issues for those involved in "hard news."
