Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Abby Chin is a reporter for the Boston Celtics, she is very good at her job and was liked by everyone until NBC Universal decided to lay off some of their staff due to attempts to save money and Abby sadly was one of them. That being said, she was not going away quietly without a fight as her fans rallied around her to let her know she was not alone.

Even though the downsizing reached far beyond the staff of its regional cable sports network in Boston, Philadelphia, Washington, San Francisco, and Chicago and it wasn’t really about their competence or performance it was just about saving money which was getting hard to make during a pandemic that has ravaged almost everywhere.

sources reveal that NBC sports decisions were made on the corporate level and the positions lost were similar across the company’s regional networks and the decisions ultimately were out of the hands of the senior vice president and general manager.

After Abby received the news of being fired, she was almost immediately offered the choice to continue working till the end of the season and as she informed her fans on Twitter, she jumped at it saying she was accepting the offer.
