Why is this person still employed ? If this had been a white person who spoke similarly about Obama, she would have been fired before the echo died down!

Such a double standard!

Why do you suppose that this "double standard" exists?

Because she wants to be fired so she can scream racism. Best course of action is to not care and make her have to do something even more outrageous.

Meanwhile, Curt Shilling was **FIRED** over this retweet
quote:


"It's said only 5-10% of Muslims are extremists. In 1940, only 7% of Germans were Nazis. How'd that go?"


quote:

Curt's tweet was completely unacceptable, and in no way represents our company's perspective," ESPN said in a written statement. "We made that point very strongly to Curt and have removed him from his current Little Leagu
e assignment pending further consideration."
quote:

Schilling deleted the tweet after individually replying to his some of his critics and supporters.



i mean, when jemele says something as horrible as that and then post a half-hearted apology, maybe they'll take action.

I disagree. The double standard exists not because the color of her skin but because of the content of her character.

She is a Leftist espousing radical Leftist ideology. She gets a pass. If she were a pro Trump, pro Tea Party and pro Conservative and GOP espouser of ideology, you would see that the double standard doesn't exist because of either her race or gender.

Indoctrination. Remember that in the Leftist totalitarian Staat, education and mass media both exist for one primary purpose: Indoctrination.

Clay Travis is going pretty hard to the hole on this story because it's right in his wheelhouse.

On his show this morning, he asked that only black people call in and tell him why he's racist. I only listened to a little bit of it but the few calls I heard were about him critiquing either a black person or an issue involving a black person. Basically, he was racist for not falling in line. It was pretty illuminating.

Maybe he purposely seeks out to critique or eagerly highlights issues involving black people.

1. She's female.
2. Majority of ESPN folks agree with her.
3. Her hateful rhetoric is the "right" kind.
4. She's black.

Prime opportunity for a white, male espn personality to type the exact opposite on their social media and see the results. I'd hope to get fired and sue

I couldn't stand Clay Travis for a long time.. But he's new show has been pretty awesome
And he gives ZERO fricks about telling it like it is on things like ESPN, race, and the leftwing shite in sports now.

He was on Tucker last night talking about this.
