HEY NFL PLAYERS THIS IS HOW YOU BOSS THE FUCK UP AND SUPPORT EACH OTHER,
You want respect, you want guaranteed contracts for the most brutal contracts, act like fucking men.
So 81% of White people are killed by black people? Man gtfohwtbs
He's right. But he's safer than Jemelle. He's at that moderate level of fame where this shit don't hurt his "career". Hollywood don't check for him like that, so he can't do this shit. Mainstream don't know who this dude is, so he can be reckless like this.
she used her personal twitter account right ...?
fuck apologizing... & fuck espn ....
when i say i legit havent watched that shit in over a yr i mean it ...
...
she don't want to lose her job so she had to apologize.
This is the face of gentrification. This is the bitch that moves into the historically black neighborhood and immediately deems herself head of the Neighborhood Watch and starts flooding the police with nuisance complaints about black folks just minding their business and living their lives. Fuck this pumpkin-spiced, mayo faced bitch!!

I do not know Jemele Hill personally, but I wish I did. In truth, I like to say that Hill is a throwback to a 1960s revolutionary (which she is), but Hill is in line with black women today. (Truthfully, black men, black women have been killing us on the “Stand up for yourselves” front. They don’t take anything lying down. If the NFL were made up of black women, the damn league would be at a standstill until everything got ironed out.)
So when Hill took to Twitter to spill all that truth about President Shitty von AssFace being a white supremacist, black America was stamping it with #Facts. But everything is politicized now. You can’t call a white supremacist a white supremacist even when he supports and empowers white supremacy and supports himself with white supremacists.
Hill’s network, ESPN, has apologized. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, aka Suckabee, called for her job. And now President Lucas von TurtleDick has gone on Twitter asking that ESPN apologize, even though it already did. And Hill issued a mea culpa pointing out that her views were personal and that she didn’t mean to bring heat to her network. But that didn’t stop President Soaked von ShittyDiaper from demanding more apologies and using an exclamation point because that’s what dictators do!
Well, here is a list of five things that will happen before Jemele Hill ever apologizes to that tiki-torch-complexioned flaming bag of Cheetos extract:
1. Frankie Beverly will officially join Maze, and the group will no longer feature him but will, in fact, just be called Maze.
2. LeBron James’ hairline will grow back to its seventh-grade length, when it was just above his eyebrows.
3. My credit score will be above 750. I currently have the credit score of a homeless hologram.
4. Dennis Rodman will broker a peace deal between North Korea and the U.S. (Wait, that actually might happen.)
5. Fifty-three percent of white women will apologize for turning their backs on the rest of America and voting Donald Trump into office.

Busy Philipps Loses It After Being Mistaken for Sarah Huckabee Sanders: "ARE YOU F--KING KIDDING ME?"

Busy Philipps is not Deputy White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders. The actress very much wants to be excluded from that narrative.
On Thursday, Jon Cooper, Chairman of The Democratic Coalition Against [Donald] Trump, tweeted a photo of the actress looking sullen in a scene from the short-lived '90s cult series Freaks and Geeks, joking, "Sarah Huckabee Sanders even looked habitually pissed when she was a teenager! I guess having @GovMikeHuckabee as your dad does that to you."
He later deleted the tweet and signaled he had made a mistake thinking the picture was really of a teen Sarah, adding that he never watched Freaks and Geeks. But not before sparking Busy's wrath.
"ARE YOU F--KING KIDDING ME?" she tweeted. "IS THIS A JOKE? THIS IS ME FROM FREAKS AND GEEKS. FAKE NEWS."
"ALSO I LOOK NOTHING LIKE SARAH HUCKABEE SANDERS. WHAT IN THE ACTUAL -?!?????!!!!!" she added. "I AM NEVER GETTING OVER THIS. I AM ACTUALLY DEAD NOW...ALSO. Pick on a woman for the insane lies she tells. Not cause she looks pissed off while telling them. I love women who look pissed off."
Busy also took to Instagram Stories, where she often posts short selfie videos, to voice her displeasure at the comparison.
She posted a screenshot of Jon's tweet, writing, "WHAT THE F--K."
"Guys, I don't know who that guy is, Jon Cooper, who just tweeted that picture of me, but if I look like Sarah f--king Huckabee, you've got to be f--king kidding me. I'm sorry. Very upset about this. It's not okay," she said. "You guys, I am beside myself. What in God's name...who, what is happening in this world that, what...you guys, I'm so annoyed, I don't want to be..."
She then got sidetracked, saying she recently suffered a minor head injury on a commercial shoot and recalling a 2000 news story about Britney Spears getting hit in the head by a piece of camera equipment while filming her "Oops!...I Did It Again" video in 2000.
"Okay, but my point is, I don't want to be, like, involved in this Sarah Huckabee Sanders narrative," Busy said.
"The thought that this guy googled Sarah Huckabee Sanders or whatever and my picture was there, and then...you guys, I'm dying. That guy deleted the tweet, which means he wasn't just trying to make a s--tty joke. He legitimately thought that I was Sarah Huckabee Sanders as a kid," she later said.
Jon later confirmed the Google blunder and apologized publicly to Busy.
"I missed watching Freaks and Geeks(although my kids loved it!). I found that pic online & it was identified as being Sarah Sanders. My bad!" he tweeted. "I'm indeed a HUGE fan of Busy! She was my favorite character on Cougar Town (tho I did miss watching Freaks and Geeks). Anyway, I APOLOGIZE!"

Exactly what happened to Jemele Hill and Michael Smith at ESPN on Wednesday
There's more to the story.
SEP 15, 2017, 1:21 PM
https://thinkprogress.org/exactly-w...hael-smith-at-espn-on-wednesday-03a5aa226620/
On Thursday, ThinkProgress exclusively reported that amid brewing controversy over Jemele Hill’s tweets calling President Donald Trump a “white supremacist,” ESPN had initially tried to keep Hill off the air on Wednesday for the 6:00 p.m. ET broadcast of SportsCenter.
Two sources close to the situation told ThinkProgress that Hill’s co-host, Michael Smith, refused to go on the air without her, as did two black anchors ESPN asked to serve as fill-ins. Eventually, ESPN called Hill back to the studio and the show went on as usual.
ThinkProgress spoke with ESPN prior to publication and they provided a response that was included in the original article. After the article was published, ESPN provided numerous outlets, including ThinkProgress, an additional statement: “We never asked any other anchors to do last night’s show. Period.”
ESPN used this short statement to suggest that ThinkProgress’ initial report was inaccurate. It generated headlines like “ESPN denies trying to bench Jemele Hill for calling Trump ‘white supremacist’” and “ESPN denies report it tried to pull Jemele Hill off the air Wednesday.”
But ThinkProgress has subsequently learned more details about exactly what happened on Wednesday to Hill and Smith. In light of these new facts, ESPN’s “denial” is much less than meets the eye.
Here is what actually happened, according to four sources familiar with the situation who spoke with ThinkProgress on the condition of anonymity.
Late Wednesday morning, after a contentious meeting, a top executive at ESPN told Hill to go home. She was seen in the parking lot around 11:30 a.m. ET, the time she is usually in meetings to plan out the show.
When he learned that Hill was sent home, Smith immediately made it known that he would not appear on the 6 p.m. broadcast without her. That left ESPN with no hosts for its flagship show, scheduled to start in just a few hours.
ESPN then reached out to multiple anchors, including Elle Duncan and Michael Eaves, the two anchors mentioned in the original report, to check their availability for the 6:00 p.m. show. According to sources, Duncan and others told ESPN they were not available to fill in. ThinkProgress has subsequently learned that ESPN reached out to other anchors regarding their availability, including white hosts
Some sources who spoke to ThinkProgress said they believed ESPN preferred to replace Jemele Hill and Michael Smith with a black host. Other sources pushed back strongly against this notion, saying that ESPN was in a crisis mode and looking for anyone to fill in, regardless of race.
In follow-up discussions, ThinkProgress reached out to ESPN to offer the opportunity to answer the following questions on the record:
- Was Jemele Hill sent home late Wednesday morning?
- Did Michael Smith, shortly thereafter, refuse to do the show without Jemele?
- Did ESPN producers reach out to other anchors at the network to check their availability for the 6:00 SportsCenter on Wednesday?
A full picture of Wednesday’s events reveals that ESPN’s post-publication statement was, at a minimum, highly misleading. It can be regarded as true, only if you accept the fine distinction between asking other anchors to “do last night’s show” and asking the same anchors if they are available to do the show.
Throughout the week, ESPN’s handling of the controversy has been subject to withering criticism.
This controversy began on Monday night, when Hill tweeted that “Donald Trump is a white supremacist who has largely surrounded himself [with] other white supremacists.”
On Tuesday, ESPN escalated the controversy when it released a statement saying that Hill’s comments “do not represent the position of ESPN.” Wednesday afternoon at a press briefing, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said the tweets were a “fireable offense.”
Hill released a statement on Twitter late Wednesday night saying that her comments on Twitter were her personal beliefs, but she regretted that they “painted ESPN in an unfair light.” On Friday morning, Trump weighed on on the situation.

During his father's 2008 presidential campaign, both Newsweek and the Los Angeles Timesreported that the younger Huckabee had been dismissed as a Boy Scout camp counselor in 1998.[12][13] Huckabee, then two weeks shy of his 18th birthday, was alleged to have been involved in the hanging and stoning to death of a stray dog.[12]
When an animal rights group sought records from the Arkansas state police the request was denied. John Bailey, the then-police chief reported that "(Mike Huckabee's) chief of staff and personal lawyer both pressured him to write a letter officially denying the local prosecutor's request."[12] Mike Huckabee fired Bailey seven months later. In December 2007, Bailey told Newsweek that the governor told him "I've lost confidence in your ability to do your job" and "I couldn't get you to help me with my son when I had that problem."[12]
Mike Huckabee flatly denied Bailey's account.[12]He insisted his son did not engage in "intentional torture." A campaign official said that David Huckabee "regrets the incident."[12]
