Don Cherry was trending on Twitter again 👀 It wasn’t for something he said or did — not recently anyway. Cherry’s name was brought up, as it often is on the social media platform by those that share his political beliefs, to make a point. So Tara Slone, a former colleague of Cherry’s at Sportsnet, who left the network in July, decided to weigh in. Slone said that she likes Cherry as a person, but added that he is a bigot that shouldn’t be given a national platform. And certainly, he shouldn’t be looked at as a hockey or political leader. “I see #DonCherry is trending yet again. I have never weighed in, but I want to now,” said the former Hometown Hockey co-host. “I like him, I really do. I hope he is healthy and doing well. But he is a bigot and had no place on national television with a national platform. It wasn’t the poppy incident, it was everything he proclaimed over three decades. Come. On. Stop with the deification.” Do you agree with Slone? Let us know👇
