ESPN doesn’t deserve Jemele Hill
Washington Post ^ | October 9, 2017 | Erik Wemple

ESPN doesn’t deserve to retain the services of Jemele Hill, its opinionated “SportsCenter” anchor.

Proof? On Monday, the Disney-owned sports-broadcasting colossus suspended Hill for issuing an insightful tweet about the NFL, a league that ESPN supposedly covers. At issue was Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, a guy who is sounding a lot like the president of the United States these days. “If there’s anything that is disrespectful to the flag, then we will not play,” said Jones on Sunday after his team sustained a difficult loss to the Green Bay Packers. “Understand? We will not … if we are disrespecting the flag, then we will not play. Period.” The Dallas Morning News reported that two Cowboys players had raised their fists toward the end of the anthem before the Green Bay game.

Yes, I agree. They don’t deserve her. She is so talented that she and Michael Smith her co-host should leave and start their own network and see how they do in the marketplace. I’m sure they will thrive and earn much more fame and money on their own. I know I wake up every damn morning and say, hmmmmm I wonder what Jameele thinks on the most popular non sports related issues of the day....

This country does not deserve ESPN, which has pretty much ruined sports broadcasting IMHO.

ESPN doesn’t deserve the money it extorts monthly on my cable bill.

Give her credit for the Jemele reflex. When her face appears on the screen and your finger immediately goes to the remote to change channels.

Sounds good to me. They should part company immediately and she should go find a job that better suits her "talent."

Like Washing dishes or something.

And the Post once again demonstrate how tone deaf the Left is and why they continue to lose. You couldn’t make up this kind of stupidity.

ESPN deserves Jemele Hill.

They deserve to wear her like a millstone around their necks.

They deserve every bit of the disaster she will bring them.

ESPN has sown the wind, and will now reap the whirlwind.

She doesn’t even know squat about sports! She only has this job because she is Black and a female, and thus double-privileged.

Biatch can’t keep her mouth shut. She will be gone from ESPN soon.

Has anyone ever watched her show? She is terrible and knows nothing about sports.

How about reporting sports scores, commentary about the games and leave it at that? Leave it at that, and see viewership, at least, will stop hemmorhaging.

Just a suggestion.

Maybe they’ll replace her with Michael Sam due to his unique progressive views.

Washington Post: ESPN expecting their talking heads to stick to Sports and not Politics or SJW b.s.? Unthinkable! A travesty! Slavery, even!

“ESPN doesn’t deserve the money it extorts monthly on my cable bill.”

Cut your cable, use the internet and Sling Blue to stream your tv channels.

Sling Blue does not carry ESPN/Disney/ABC.

So, the anti America thugs at ESPN/Disney/ABC can’t get their monthly blood money from you!

I have this feeling that both Jemele Hill and Michael Smith are "not for long" at ESPN. ESPN will buy out their contracts and end The Six experiment.
