Jemele Hill announced her return to ESPN after her two-week suspension for a second violation of ESPN's social media guidelines.
ESPN suspended Hill after the Sports Center anchor used social media to urge advertisers to boycott the Dallas Cowboys.
ESPN released a statement on Oct. 9 detailing Hill’s suspension: “Jemele Hill has been suspended for two weeks for a second violation of our social media guidelines. She previously acknowledged letting her colleagues and company down with an impulsive tweet. In the aftermath, all employees were reminded of how individual tweets may reflect negatively on ESPN and that such actions would have consequences. Hence the decision.”
Hill will return tonight to Sports Center on ESPN2 starting at 6 p.m.
