Nether ESPN or The 6 currently, or have in the past, "talked politics." That's become a cop out phrase for people who simply don't want social issues that they don't identify with, talked about. The intersection of social issues and sports became intertwined before cable television was born. Nearly all of the same people complaining about ESPN being too political are the same ones who could be found also praising very vocal conservative social issue voices like Will Cain, Snacks Whitlock, Tow Truck Barbie, and PediculoCLAYsis.
This is the perfect MSB millennial sky scream.

Or....now hear me out..... people don't want social issues talked about at all on a SPORTS NETWORK.
If people wanted political discussions, they could very easily see that on social media or anyone of the MANY news channels on TV.

And it wasn't until recently that ESPN allowed it's employees to push political views to the forefront of their shows. People don't tune in to ESPN because they want the political opinions of people who have no more credibility than the people on this board. Hence the massive drop in ratings.
