Rembert Browne said it best: ESPN wants black faces, not black minds.

Jemele on her work account telling people to boycott sponsors who might also be ESPN sponsors. You can't do that.

This. ESPN has been very loyal to her and she isnt exactly returning the favor - she has free speech but their are consequences for that free speech especially if you talk against your employer and who is driving their business/profit (and your employment).Jemele on her work account telling people to boycott sponsors who might also be ESPN sponsors.

business and profits > human rights, justice and fairness.
You can't operate a for profit enterprise on justice.
One could argue that that's the problem.You can't operate a for profit enterprise on justice.
You can't operate a for profit enterprise on justice alone.
Its a sports take though. Why do they hire her to give opinions if shes gonna get in trouble for giving an opinion. Would she have been suspended for saying that on her show? Tbh if Max said something similar on First Take would anyone even notice?Jemele on her work account telling people to boycott sponsors who might also be ESPN sponsors. You can't do that.
Placing the onus on Businesses for social responsibility? Good luck with that. Talk about ridcoulous expectations.business and profits > human rights, justice and fairness.
What would they do, suspend him for 2 weeks?ESPN didn't have anything to say when Trump called for a boycott tho

This whole "you don't have to give a damn about anything but profit if you're a corporation" mindset is part of the problem. Expect more from them as a customer. They might actually give it to you.Don't get me wrong, ESPN is a shithole & what Jemel said isn't bad, but Trump doesn't work for the company....Jemel does..... You don't want someone at your work mentioning boycotting the advertisers on your network (ESPN MNF games). It's like someone at working at Coca-Cola saying if they don't like Coke, boycott it.
Again, this should not matter, but this is not really relevant to the situaiton here.
I get why ESPN suspended her due to ESPN showing NFL games.
But still following her lead and boycotting Dr Pepper and Pepsi.
