E:60

Notable Works

Since its premiere in 2007, E:60 has traveled the globe in pursuit of the stories which address broader issues through the lens of sports. The show has reported from Kenya, Sudan, India, Dominican Republic, Morocco, Mexico, Senegal, Philippines, Netherlands, Haiti, Costa Rica, South Africa, Ukraine, Serbia, Bolivia, Venezuela, Panama, Liberia, and the Middle East.

In 2015, the show premiered an unprecedented investigation into the corruption and human rights abuses surrounding the World Cup bid of Qatar and took viewers inside the country's labor camps for the first time on television. In 2015, Jeremy Schaap continued his reporting on FIFA with an in-depth profile of former president Sepp Blatter and tales of corruption from deep inside the organization.

As issues surrounding race and policing gripped several communities in the U.S., E:60 presented an in-depth account from a high school football team in Ferguson, Missouri as well as the story of Jonathan Farrell, a young black college football player shot by a Charlotte officer after a car accident in an unfamiliar neighborhood.

In addition to its acclaimed investigations, E:60 produces inspirational features that resonate deeply with viewers. Perhaps none had more impact and response than the 2014 special produced for the one-year anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombing, “Dream On: Stories from Boston’s Strongest”. With contributions from President Barack Obama, Ben Affleck, Tom Brady, and Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, the one-hour special remembered lives lost, and paid tribute to those who survived.

In 2015, E:60 also shared the story of college baseball player Chris Singleton, who lost his mother in the Charleston church shooting. As he prepared to take the field again, the show documented his personal journey of courage, love, and forgiveness.

Whether shedding light on the struggles of society, peeling away the layers that surround the biggest names in sports, presenting stories of inspiration, or simply finding humor in the games that we choose to play, E:60 seeks to broaden horizons and touch on issues relevant to all of us.

Series Platforms

Originally conceived as a primetime newsmagazine, E:60 has evolved to add a number of other long-form platforms that expand and strengthen its commitment to high-quality storytelling and in-depth reporting. The newsmagazine - a one-hour show featuring three to four distinct features - remains the main presentation, airing in primetime on ESPN throughout the year.

In 2011, the producers of E:60 launched the Profiles brand as an extension of their work on the newsmagazine. These thirty-minute shows focus on a single athlete, telling his or her journey, on and off the field. In addition, in 2013, the documentary series E:60 Pictures was launched, a place to devote a full hour to a single story. In the spring of 2015, E:60 Reports with Jeremy Schaap, a series of one-hour investigations each devoted to a single issue, made its debut.
