Jemele Hill, the ESPN SportsCenter host whose tweets last month calling President Trump a white supremacist caused the White House to call for her firing, was suspended by ESPN on Monday for again running afoul of the company’s social-media policy.
After Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said he would bench any players who “disrespect the flag,” Hill suggested on Twitter that fans who disagreed with Jones’s stance should boycott Cowboys advertisers.
Amazing how an ESPN reporter is held to a higher standard than potus.
Your comment really doesn't make sense.
No doubt if Trump were a high-profile employee of ESPN or other companies he'd have been fired long ago for his tweets.
ESPN relies heavily on cooperation from the NFL for access to interviews, content etc. so when one of their employees calls for a boycott of NFL sponsors (since many cowboys sponsors would be NFL sponsors too) it's pretty much biting the hand of a major partner.
Not to mention, those sponsors also advertise on ESPN.
So, you're basically trying to drag Trump into a situation where an employee is calling out for the boycott of companies that advertise on their network. They're not even apples and oranges lol.

He is the employee of every American citizen, and I call him out for the crappy job he is doing every day.

This argument would work if not for all the ESPN employees supporting the NFL, NBA, and NHL lockouts in the last decades.
the majority sided with the players which was the ultimate boycott.
I stopped watching ESPN when they fired their legitimate sports reporters and replaced them with brain-dead SJW's. They'll keep this miserable buffoon Hill and watch their ratings sink further into the toilet.

Jemele Hill has been a sports reporter since before she graduated college, so she has 20 years of experience regardless of your "SJW" argument.
