Show Notes

Breaking news from the world of sports and the Maroon PR team is on it! This episode covers the ramifications from Major League Baseball’s polarizing decision to move this year’s All-Star Game out of Georgia in response to the state’s controversial new voting law. John Maroon is joined by Matt Williams and Jen Renehan as the trio discuss the path to least resistance MLB and Commissioner Rob Manfred took in their stance, along with the optics and potential pitfalls of this decision from a public relations lens. The team also dives into hot button issues of media slant and how the state of politics has made its way into not only the psyche of American sports, but in every aspect of our lives.
