ESPN too sensitive?

Yesterday, it was announced that Harold Reynolds would be suing ESPN for $5 million, claiming breach of contract and wrongful termination. Back in July when Harold was fired, there was never any explanation given, but a story came out about giving “a brief innocuous hug” to a "female intern." Does not exactly sound like grounds for dismissal to me. ESPN also had to deal yesterday with banning commentator Brian Kinchen from one game after his questionable use of the word gay. Kinchen’s future with the network is also under review. This is another instance that probably deserves punishment, but not suspension from the network. It just makes you wonder if ESPN is getting a little too sensitive in their old age.
