Oh maybe she's been working there for over 10 years?

How come demographics never factor into white guys getting jobs even though they dominate every industry? What are are also just that much better than everyone? Our merit is always legit?

I think she's good. Not the best, but she's earned her chops.

She is a racist. She clearly has something against white people. Maybe some self reflection would be good for her.

I'm not melting at all. But I see you in every thread like this responding to my posts.

If anything, I've triggered you and you can't help but respond.

She's over the line. Admit it. Call it like it is. As a Democrat, there is no debate in this. It's a tough one to spin positively. She made a mistake. A big one.

I think ESPN, for one, is two-faced in this. I have no doubts that had Scott Van Pelt said something similar regarding Obama, he would have been canned swiftly.

ESPN is strictly going to tell her to dial it down.

There was no mistake, this is who this woman is every fricking day at every minute. This is what she believes in and she's a racist piece of shite. Her life and every thought in her pea size brain revolves around racism.

SVP is a pretty big name, so I'm not sure they would fire him (maybe they would). But he would for sure be given some time off and have to apologize and admit how wrong he is and kiss the ring before he's given another chance.

He'd also have to fight off accusations of racism, he'd be grilled on every show from The View to Anderson Cooper, and basically ostracized into a lonely corner.

It sounds like a miserable way to live. Constantly looking for the racism in everyday life and getting upset at petty shite.

If SS weren't such a douche, I might feel bad for him. He's miserable.

ESPN is so image conscious that they moved an Asian announcer from calling the Univ of Virginia football game simply because his name was Robert Lee.


And yet they let Hank Williams back on MNF

So ESPN shouldn't have fired Curt either?

How many incidents has Hill had that ESPN had to come down on her for? This is the only one I know of.

That could be your difference. Schilling was fired for being told multiple times to stop with the nonsense, but he did not stop.

she was suspended by ESPN in the past for likening Celtics fans to Hitler. And this isn't the first time Hill has said things like this, it's just the first time she crossed the imaginary line where ESPN felt they needed to say something. Shilling also issued apologies. We'll see if Hill does, but I'm not holding my breath.

I feel like Jemele Hill's annoying shtick creates more racist people. She's a fricking idiot.
