Jemele is probably the worst writer in ESPN history, which is saying a lot, but I understand she most likely name dropped Hitler in an attempt at comedy. While doing so she broke the rules of getting away with a provocative reference:
A. You have to do it in a funny way
B. It must raise a good point
C. A combination of both
I don't think Hill understands that playing the race card is piss poor writing. Now how ESPN continues to get "piss poor" confused with "outstanding" is beyond me and my problem is that Jemele talks about race in every single article for no apparent reason other than the fact that she can get away with it. No matter what the color of your skin may be, bringing up race for no reason whatsoever makes you look ignorant; especially when explaining why you hate something.
Somebody needs to tell her that playing the race card as black woman who is paid very well to write articles that take little to no literary talent whatsoever does indeed make her just as ignorant as those who hate others because of the color of their skin. In this case she’s guilty on both accounts and if someone is going to play the race card it most certainly shouldn't be her. Instead of being a role model for aspiring female journalists she's an abomination who brings down her race as well as her gender.
We get it, Jemele Hill, you hate white people and the Celtics. Now take your fingers off the keyboard and stop wasting our bandwidth.
NOBODY was thinking that, not even LEBRON HIMSELF!
