ESPN Afraid to Comment on Jemele Hill's Statement That Trump Voters Are Racist

Jemele Hill said that everyone who votes for Donald Trump for president is a racist.

Ironically enough, Jemele Hill’s own Mom voted for Donald Trump. You can’t make up that irony.

The biggest issue is that ESPN is paying Jemele Hill millions of dollars for a hagiographic documentary that is going to star Colin Kaepernick.

I had the Outkick crew reach out to ESPN to see if ESPN agreed if all Donald Trump voters were racist, ESPN said no comment.

Jemele Hill said all Donald Trump voters were racist. We reached out to ESPN to see if they believed that all Donald Trump voters were racist and ESPN said no comment.

ESPN has basically let it be known that everyone out there who has any kind of moderate kind of political leanings.

If you are anything other than a far left-wing loon, you are not in any way respected by ESPN.

We saw this last week with Woj, we saw this Woke-Center related politics. ESPN is a far-left wing organization. They are MSESPN.

The fact that they won’t even deny Jemele Hill’s charge that all Donald Trump voters are racist is an unbelievable confirmation that if you are anything other than a far-left wing loony loser, ESPN has no interest whatsoever in your business.

By the way, it’s not a surprise that statements play well on Twitter because it’s racist. If you are branding half of the country racist — whether they are white, black, Asian, or Hispanic — who are voting for Donald Trump, you are painting with such a racist brush that it is unacceptable.

Here’s the bigger issue. If anyone that worked at ESPN said if you vote for Biden you are racist or AOC or any Democratic politician you are racist, they would immediately get fired.

But if you attack half of the country who voted for Donald Trump ESPN says that’s acceptable.

I don’t have a problem with everyone having political opinions.

I have a problem with content-based discrimination where some people are allowed to say — far left wingers — exactly what they think every day.

And everyone else out there has to bite their tongue because if they say what they really think — if you are a part of the 75 or 80% of people who aren’t woke — you aren’t allowed to say what you believe and keep their job.

Whereas the far-woke, the left wing community is able to say whatever they want.

That is content-based discrimination. That is not an even handed treatment of all opinions by Disney and by ESPN and I think that’s wrong.

I think the standard should be: everyone can say whatever they want. Let the public decide whether or not that’s a smart move from a business perspective.

I don’t tell my employees what they can or cannot say on their Twitter accounts.

I don’t tell them they can’t have left-wing or right-wing opinions. I tell them to go out and have smart opinions and be ready to defend whatever you say.

As a result, that’s why we are kicking ass at Outkick because we are trying to treat everyone equally and because we’re not trying to pick sides.

We’re trying to be straight down the middle every single day.
