ESPN Host Gets Slap on the Wrist After Calling President Trump a White Supremacist
Cable sports network ESPN has been slowly morphing into a leftist propaganda organ instead of focusing on the games and providing the content that built it into the powerhouse that it is today.
It’s now almost impossible to tune into ESPN without being subjected to some raving leftist nutcase (and more than a few racists) popping off about politics and taking pot shots at President Donald Trump.
Despite the network having lost millions of subscribers and conducting a minor house cleaning, the politics continue and are getting worse as bitter Colin Kaepernick defenders are given spots to spew their thinly disguised anti-white bigotry.
But this week, African-American female Sportscenter host Jemele Hill took the racial venom to a new level when she went on a deranged Twitter rant during which she accused President Donald Trump of being a white supremacist.
These days it just isn’t good enough for the left to accuse someone that they disagree with of being a racist, now it’s a white supremacist, a Nazi or both.
Donald Trump is a white supremacist who has largely surrounded himself w/ other white supremacists.

No the media doesn't make it a threat. It IS a threat. He has empowered white supremacists (see: Charlottesville).

He is unqualified and unfit to be president. He is not a leader. And if he were not white, he never would have been elected

And it's funny how you cling to Benghazi but I bet you didn't give one thought to what Trump said about the Central Park 5

Hill’s incendiary tweets predictably ignited a firestorm and after dithering, ESPN released a statement that basically was an acknowledgment that Ms. Hill would receive a slap on the wrist with a wet noodle and nothing more.

Just imagine if it were a conservative who let loose a similar stream of racist invective. They would have been out of a job so fast that they wouldn’t know that hit them.
Remember Curt Schilling? Nothing that Schilling said even remotely approaches the outrageous racist sentiment expressed by Ms. Hill.
She should be proud now that she has scored the ultimate endorsement:

Hill’s comments are a disgrace to America and amount to nothing more than the ravings of a demagogic narcissist who is only contributing to the divisiveness that has set race relations back decades thanks to Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and the Democrats along with their media stooges.
This woman should not be allowed to preach her venomous gospel of hate to a national audience and if ESPN fails to take appropriate action to remove her, then they will own her.
