Double standard is putting it mildly. Remember they yanked Hank Williams Jr. from doing the MNF theme song just for his criticism of Obama, six years ago.

ESPN brought him back, one of the few things it has done right, as of late.

No double standard.  Donald Trump defended the alt-right as "good people", hired alt-right people like Steve Bannon, and has continously made racist statements and stereotypes about Latinos, Blacks, & Arabs, and was sued by the DOJ in the 70's for housing discrimination.


Donald Trump by definition of association as well as personal action is a white supremacist. :)

Did he lose the suit?

Donald Trump said that both the screwballs of Antifa and the white supremacists were wrong and evil. And the left can't have that.

Trump also hired Ben Carson, Omarosa, and Elaine Chao as part of his cabinet. That's some real racism for you there.

The ultimate white supremacist, if any, would be the woman Trump BEAT to become president. Who had an ACTUAL KLAN KLEAGLE as her mentor? HILARY CLINTON.

Who had as another mentor the woman who founded Planned Parenthood, specifically to kill black babies and limit the black population? HILARY CLINTON!

Who panders to black people by butchering Negro hymns and spirituals when in the South? HILARY CLINTON!

ESPN is the one crying, as they've been bleeding cash as a result. Pointing out their double-standard simply show why such is the case.

It's there for all to see, except card-carrying imbeciles like you. Hank Williams criticized Obama. His MNF song gets yanked. Jemele Hill make blatantly false claims and insults Trump. ESPN slaps her on the wrist.

you must have been looking at a different board

all I've done the last 4 months is post news articles or direct quotes from Trumptard

heck, I've even fully supported Trumps health care plan (the one he talked about on the campaign trail)

At the end of the day it is just the Left/Democrat party acting like a bunch of out of touch buffoons in front of the entire country.

All those non coastal Senate seats they currently hold will be gone in 14 months and they aren't coming back anytime soon.

It is sad to see their blatant bigotry but soon enough they will have to pay the piper for their foolishness.

How many of these people were killed by Trump supporters? Keep making excuses for your dismal failure of a culture that's all you're good for.

I hope Trump keeps his mouth shut.  These folks will continue implode if he just gets out of the way.

White House Calls Jemele Hill's 'White Supremacist' Tweets a 'Fireable Offense'
JIMMY TRAINA

The controversy surrounding ESPN host Jemele Hill is not going away.

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said at a briefing on Wednesday that Hill's tweets calling Donald Trump a white supremacist were, "a fireable offense," and "outrageous."

When asked if Trump knew about Hill's comments, Sanders responded, "I'm not sure if he's aware, but I think that's one of the more outrageous comments anyone could make and certainly something that I think is a fireable offense by ESPN."

Hill, who co-hosts the 6 p.m. ET edition of SportsCenter, sent a string of Tweets Monday in which she said Trump was a "white supremacist who has largely surrounded himself with other white supremacists."

ESPN released a statement Tuesday saying Hill's comments "do not represent the position of ESPN" and that the network had addressed the remarks with Hill.

Hill gets a stern talking to and Linda Cohn gets a suspension for saying ESPN is getting too political.
