Sage Steele, the former “SportsCenter” anchor who exited ESPN in 2023 after settling a lawsuit with the sports network, sued CAA Tuesday for not advocating on her behalf in her battle with the network’s parent company Disney.
In the suit, which was filed in Los Angeles, Steele states that her agent Matt Kramer “made no attempt whatsoever” to carry out her “expressed wish” not to have to apologize for the comments she made on Jay Cutler’s podcast about the company’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates and former President Barack Obama.
According to Steele, CAA implied that publicly apologizing and accepting her suspension would keep her from being fired.
