Good point savage.

What i cannot figure out is why people like her refuse to use their "position" (of being on tv) to better others. Instead of claiming that others try to hold her down, why can she not say, "...look at everything that i have achieved. You can do this as well."

BO may have done this a few times, but i do not remember him coming out and telling people to work hard, be responsible, and you CAN achieve things.

Bottom line is that these thoughtless dolts love to tear down people instead of helping others build themselves up. Makes me want to puke.

Because that does not get attention.

Guess he took too many headshots back when he was running the bone for Switzer.

Because she would be called an "AUNT TOM". With these comments of hers she looks like one of the "oppressed".

They need to replace her with the new rising star of ESPN. Sergio Dipp.

Dude would OWN the ratings.

If she wants to fight white supremacy, she should start by showing her idiocy less.

No risk of losing gig at ESPN. Yet she's the epitome of what's wrong with that network. If it was just her Twitter, maybe ok. But she carries that shite onto her broadcasts.


She shouldn't lose her job....., well she shouldn't lose her job if Rush Limbaugh, Don Imus, Jimmy the Greek, Curt Schilling, Britt McHenry, etc. hadn't lost their jobs over various comments they made that the PC police deemed unacceptable.

Exactly. I'm usually against people losing their job for speaking out politically but this woman deserves to lose her job. She's been suspended before too.

If you achieve then why would you need mother government to take care of you?

I don't care if she loses her job but the double standard is disgusting. A white anchor questioning a specific policy of BO would have been shite canned within the hour.

This nutty bitch slanders the sitting president and gets no blow back from her employer?

It's disgusting if she isn't at least reprimanded or suspended. Agree she should be fired but I'm not even sure if ESPN will address this at all

These 2 are a little different. Rush is a political commentator known for pushing the limits. Imus is a shock jock in the same ilk of Howard Stern. You expect these guys to say off the wall stuff. That's what people tuned in for.

Jemele Hill is a host and commentator on the biggest sports network in the world. Nobody is tuning in to hear her thoughts on the President or US Politics.

Yet, you cannot tune in to her show, Bomani Jones, Stephen A Smith, Dan Lebatard, and a myriad of other ESPN shows without the race card being played, Kaepernick discussed for the millionth time, or some other SJW issue.

Because if people did that, then the Democrats would lose more than the 1000+ seats they've already lost.

Democrats need underachievers being victims in order to expand government. Obama spent 8 years doing just that: bloating government with wealth distribution and handouts.

Problem was, the majority of Americans still aren't comfortable with that.
