Pablo Torre is on the verge of making a significant jump between sports media companies.
According to Variety, the ESPN writer and on-air host is planning to leave his full-time role at the Worldwide Leader to join Meadowlark Media, the company founded by former ESPN executive John Skipper and Dan Le Batard. Though his primary responsibilities will now come with Meadowlark, Torre plans to remain a regular contributor to ESPN shows like Around the Horn and Pardon The Interruption in a rare sort of move for the sports media world.
“They are looking to build another show directly out of The Dan LeBatard Show, which is a monster,” Torre said of Meadowlark and his move to the company. He explained that he hopes to create a digital program with both audio and video components that will give him an opportunity to “tell original stories, do a bit of journalism and figure out how to make that show a home that can fit all of the things I aspire to do creatively.”
