And Jemele Hill needs to figure things out correctly but until and unless she does Jemele doesn’t belong in America.
Like a lot of anti-Americans who take up our time and our space but hate America, hate Americans and especially hate Right Wingers, Jemele completely mis-understands America so she gets America, us and the National Anthem wrong, wrong, wrong.
On September 11, 2017, Hill made a series of racist tweets critical of President Donald Trump, including describing him as a “white supremacist.” ESPN issued a statement saying Hill’s comments “do not represent the position of ESPN. We have addressed this with Jemele and she recognizes her actions were inappropriate.” Hill later clarified that she stood by her comments as representative of her personal beliefs; “My regret is that my comments and the public way I made them painted ESPN in an unfair light.” Some criticized Hill’s comments, including White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who called them “a fireable offense by ESPN”; Trump criticized the network and demanded an apology. Others voiced support for Hill and criticized ESPN and the White House’s responses, arguing that Hill’s comments were accurate and that a White House official suggesting Hill be fired infringed on the First Amendment.
On October 9, 2017, ESPN suspended Hill for two weeks for a “second violation of our social media guidelines”. Hill suggested fans upset with Jerry Jones’ threat to bench any player who does “anything that is disrespectful to the flag” should boycott the advertisers who support Jones and the Dallas Cowboys. Hill should understand why people who disagree with her should boycott her for the same reasons she demands America boycott the Star Spangled Banner. Hill seeks either agreement with her views or boycott her.
