That’s right. SportsCenter helped Dennis Rodman continue his repugnant Kim Jong Un bromance tour last night.

Linda Cohn says on "SportsCenter" that Dennis Rodman bailed on scheduled interview with ESPN after "This Week" appearance.

SportsCenter played his interview with George Stephanopoulos on “This Week.”
@GStephanopoulos just saw your segment with Rodman on @SportsCenter hope you understood anything he said. I sure didn't! #guesswhat

Sports fans were baffled.

Last highlight I'd ever think to see on Sportscenter, "Rodman on North Korea". #SC #ESPN

1. Why would SportsCenter cover the whole Rodman-to-Korea story and 2. HOLY SHIT THE WORM IS SCARY CRAZY
— Julian Sarabia (@Jules_24) March 4, 2013
Baffled and rightly disgusted.

Also how much coverage SportsCenter is doing on Rodman's trip to North Korea is a disgrace. Could we have a worse representative of America?

ESPN is really showing the Dennis Rodman interview on SportsCenter? They’re hitting a new low.

After watching the clip on Sportscenter of Dennis Rodman trying to defend Kim Jong Un, You should probably just stop talking Dennis #sodumb

Did I just see Dennis Rodman hug the leader of North Korea on SportsCenter and call him a good guy? Wtf!?!?!?!?!?!?! That's messed up.

Dennis Rodman sounds like an GF talking lovely about her abusive Spouse. But he loves me! You don't know him like I do. #sportscenter #espn

Dennis Rodman – please shut up! I don't need to be hearing this on @SportsCenter this morning. Jeez…. Educate yourself!

"Is Dennis Rodman really the man to broker world peace?" – Sportscenter #lineofthenight #what

Wow. Well, according to CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, the trip was a “diplomatic triumph.” And George Stephanopoulos proclaimed that he has “no hate for Rodman” and that he hopes Kim Jong Un “proves him right with deeds.”
Willing puppets? It’s not just Rodman, evidently.
