Anti-Trump ESPN host Jemele Hill will no longer host 'SportsCenter'

[1bad65]

Outspoken liberal Jemele Hill will no longer host ESPN’s flagship “SportsCenter,” ESPN insiders have confirmed to Fox News. She will be re-assigned to a new role at The Undefeated, the company’s site that covers the intersections of sports and race, according to Sports Illustrated.

The controversial Hill famously called President Trump a “white supremacist” on Twitter last year. ESPN initially declined to punish her but then sidelined her for two weeks in October when she violated the company’s social media guidelines a second time by calling on fans to boycott the Dallas Cowboys’ advertisers after owner Jerry Jones told players they would be benched if they did not stand up during the national anthem.

Several ESPN insiders have told Fox News that the move was Hill’s choice, but sports talk radio host Clay Travis tweeted that she was “booted” due to “collapsing ratings.”

Travis has been in front of all-things Hill and recently speculated that she would be removed from “SportsCenter.” Sports Illustrated media guru Richard Deitsch predicted that Hill’s “tenure as a SportsCenter anchor” was “effectively over” back in October of 2017.

ESPN did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Hill hosted the widely panned, urban 6 p.m. ET version of “SportsCenter” branded as “SC6” with Michael Smith, her good friend who once refused to anchor the show with a replacement while Hill was suspended. An ESPN source told Fox News that "SC6" will continue without Hill, for now, and with Smith at the helm.

The funniest thing about a large segment of anti-SJWs is that they've actually gone so far the other direction that they've become SJWs too.

Who the hèll is Jamel hill and why tf is this important to america

She can always go full Olbermann, and get a gig at MSNBC.

Don't watch much ESPN as far as their "personality"" driven shows, but if they still have that Outside The Lines joint, that would be the best place for political/societal stuff.

Otherwise, give the score, show some highlights, and keep it moving.

Don't give a flying fuck about your political hang ups.

These sports programs on ESPN often appeal to the lowest common denominator in sports fans. The rabid, foaming at the mouth types whose entire lives are wrapped around sports. They don't want to hear about politics, and they don't care what else is going on outside of their little world.

In fact, most people turn to sports, movies, music etc., to get away from politics and real life shyt. These wolves in sheep's clothing just don't get it. They want to use their limited celebrity status to voice their biases that no one is interested in hearing in that forum.

Its why they decided to really clean house

From Dan, Robin, Colin to the passing of Stuart.....we like the personality but its not necessary. How you feel is inconsequential.
