This morning, I received a small nit in my inbox, complaining that my favorite Puck author, Matt Belloni, was too dismissive of ESPN chief Jimmy Pitaro’s digital chops yesterday in his What I’m Hearing private email. The larger context, of course, is that Pitaro is among a quartet of internal Disney candidates (alongside entertainment co-chairs Dana Walden and Alan Bergman, and parks head Josh D’Amaro) being considered to take over at Disney whenever Bob Iger eventually retires, seemingly in two years’ time. (For what it’s worth, the emailer—who does not work at ESPN, though he has been connected with Bristol—pointed to Pitaro’s experience running Yahoo Sports and ESPN’s push into digital and social as examples of Pitaro’s digital bona fides. Anyway…)
