thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Espnonabc 001.jpg

message: This entry is considered to be of poor quality because it ignores everything prior to Disney's purchase of the entity. The absence of any mention of Roone Arledge renders this thoroughly unreadable. Because almost all of the information provided is of rather recent vintage, this is simply a regurgitation with no educational value. A complete overhaul is expected. The Ink Daddy!
