I read this and got confused. Do you mean ESPN's journalistic cred is
compromised? Or that taking gambling money affects them. For the gambling
money, once it was made legal it was clear that everybody was going to do
partnerships. One thing that surprised me was watching CBS Sports HQ on
Pluto a couple of months ago and seeing a show advising about how to bet on
the Olympics. But here we are. In their announcement of new amenities in
Heinz Field, the Steelers said there will be a new betting shop run by
their gambling partner so fans can place bets during games.

There are parts of sports journalism, like injury reports, that have a lot
more value to gamblers than to casual fans. That has always been there and
will continue to be.
