Media: ESPN's Stuart Scott Passes Away, ESPN Reports The News In Classiest Way Possible

ESPN's Stuart Scott died today, and the sports network
he worked for broke the news in the classiest way possible.  

Stuart Scott, the popular and extremely busy host of a variety of ESPN's programming died this weekend at the age of 49.   

Tributes are pouring in, of course, as he was a engaging, smart, terrific reporter and commentator.

Like every other news outlet, ESPN today had to report the news of Scott's passing. That had to be terribly difficult, since Scott was a colleague of the people who work there.

Through tears, ESPN's Hannah Storm broke the news in the most graceful and classiest way possible.

Rich Eisen, who Scott referred to as his "TV wife" because they co-anchored shows so much, also gave a beautiful tribute to Scott.

I hate to be so cold and technical when talking about somebody's passing, but when ESPN became part of the story today, they could not have handled it in a better way than they did.
