ESPN Vet Delivers Brutal Olympic Dispatch For JD Vance Backers Flooding Her DMs
HuffPost
Emmy-winning broadcaster Sarah Spain revealed the disgusting messages she has received since calling out the vice president at Milan Cortina 2026.
Sports commentator Sarah Spain doubled down on her criticism of Vice President JD Vance, while also condemning his supporters for flooding her inbox with hate after her initial remarks.
Spain, known for her work at ESPN, said last week on her “Good Game” podcast that she felt like she had “looked at a demon, like the devil” when she sat near Vance at a U.S. women’s hockey match during the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics.
On Saturday, Spain addressed the backlash in a video posted to Instagram that she recorded at one of the Olympic venues.
“Just wanted to give you a heads up that if you see some weird comments on my Instagram that I haven’t had a chance to delete yet, it’s because I got called out for criticizing a pedophile-protecting, American-who-was-executed-by-ICE-slandering person,” Spain said in the clip.
She added that some of Vance’s supporters were “so cotton-headed that they will defend literally anything done by this person” and had flooded her mentions with insults, calling her “fat” and “dumb” and saying they hoped she would “die and get cancer.”
