ESPN has suspended Jemele Hill, after the SportsCenter anchor used her personal Twitter account to call for a boycott of Jerry Jones after the Dallas Cowboys owner threatened to bench any player who did not stand during The National Anthem.
This is not the first time that Hill has faced scrutiny for expressing her political views on social media, after previously calling President Donald Trump a "white supremacist."
This play always work. Change happens when advertisers are impacted. If you feel strongly about JJ's statement, boycott his advertisers. https://t.co/LFXJ9YQe74

If you strongly reject what Jerry Jones said, the key is his advertisers.
