Some defenders of Jamele are saying she shouldn't be fired like Curt Shilling because this is a first offense, Shilling was warned previously then fired. But turns out Jamele has done this before at espn.
She(Hill) was once suspended by ESPN for comparing rooting for the Celtics to having sympathy for Hitler. She apologized.....

Good Article on jamele at espn and her path to the top of that network.

Jamele said this previously about Twitter
“I’ll put my record for people deleting their tweets up against anybody’s at ESPN,” she said. “I get an enormous satisfaction when I see somebody delete a tweet. And if I make you delete your account, I’m throwing a party. That’s even better. I’m like, I’m running you out of this social media neighborhood. You’re not running me out of it.”

I usually just search "NFL Scores" or "MLB Standings" when I'm curious.

@ssu

That's all you got ?

I'm not buying any of this stuff about, Trump would have been just fine if he hadn't done this thing or that thing. It's BS, they hate the man, Press Coverage is 92% Negative for 2 years, the Deep State hates him and even tested the waters for a Supreme Court Coup prior to the inauguration.

espn is making the same mistake as Mtv. They have the perfect model as an upstart, then they get big and start going into the social engineering business. Fucking just go back to the old days, you'll be fine, you'll make tons of money. If I wanted social justice I'd watch Don Lemon or the View.

Solid point.

I think you could trace this trajectory with just about any American business, when it goes public. See: Facebook, Uber, all media companies. As soon as responsibility is sufficiently dispersed, decision-making becomes completely abstract, and follows the path of least resistance. Since the Right isn't leading letter campaigns and burning statues in the streets, the Left becomes dominant in corporate slave-land. Shareholders give zero fucks about the issues - just keep sales coming, and avoid negative PR.

I don't think ESPN would be able to help themselves going back to the old days. They'd need to fill in the silence between scant, relevant sports news with breaking updates about addressing twitter rumors about LeBron getting his ass waxed or something equally asinine.

And remember about the old days of ESPN:

I think that was inferred, but what Huckabee Sanders actually said was Jamele HIll's actions were a Fireable Offense.

I have no problem with the Whitehouses statement
