NC State announcer therealGaryHahn suspended for controversial 'illegal aliens' reference

Hahn, who has worked for Learfield Communications as a radio broadcaster since 1991, referenced the “illegal aliens” in El Paso, Texas, amid the game between the N.C. State Wolfpack and the Terrapins from the University of Maryland.

General Manager Kyle Winchester of Wolfpack Sports Properties wrote:"Learfield has suspended Wolfpack Sports Network play-by-play announcer Gary Hahn from his agreement indefinitely following comments made during today’s Duke’s Mayo Bowl radio broadcast." "I said from the beginning that I would call it when I felt that either our asylum-seekers or community were not safe," El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser said in a statement earlier in December.

The Sun Bowl also canceled its annual fan fest last week due to the city’s convention center being used to house illegal immigrants awaiting processing.

therealgaryhahn Well deserved suspension

therealgaryhahn You rednecks commenting must be poor and racist. You non economic driving state suck. So poor

therealgaryhahn Not sure how the topic came up but they are illegal aliens

therealgaryhahn People, this is about money, as always. Sponsors don't want you to do or say anything that could turn away consumers. (So do your job and avoid controversy, and you'll be fine. If you think not, read your job contract or employer's HR policies.)

therealgaryhahn 👍

therealgaryhahn It's not 'controversial' when that's in fact exactly what they are.

therealgaryhahn If we expect leftist announcers and athletes to “stick to sports“ the same applies here. Totally unnecessary comment.

therealgaryhahn He is correct.

therealgaryhahn Complete nonsense … Why punish someone for a STATEMENT OF FACT? Is NCSU angry this commentary acknowledges a shameful state of affairs, or that it underscores the failures of the current administration or that it accurately labels those who have entered our company illegally.?
