REPORT: Ron MacLean could be in HOT water over PRIDE comment live on air
Ron McLean, the host of Hockey Night in Canada, has been subjected to a great deal of criticism in the world of sports media. Many fans and viewers have expressed their dissatisfaction with his hosting style and have often found fault with the way he conducts himself on-air.
Recently, during an interview with Brian Burke, the President of Hockey Operations for the Pittsburgh Penguins, about the NHL's Pride initiative, McLean once again found himself in hot water with fans. While Burke was praised for his approach to the interview, McLean's line of questioning was met with criticism from viewers. The incident highlights McLean's ongoing struggles to connect with the audience and his inability to effectively engage with them during interviews.
"It's about saying this community is valuable and important and we want to honour them."
