Big Facts

Following ESPN’s two-week suspension of Jemele Hill, Hill’s co-host Michael Smith reportedly reached a “mutual” agreement with the network to sit out Monday night’s episode of SC6, according to TheWrap.

As previously reported, Hill was suspended for her tweets surrounding Jerry Jones and his demand for NFL players to be benched for not standing for the national anthem. “Jemele Hill has been suspended for two weeks for a second violation of our social media guidelines,” ESPN said in a statement. “She previously acknowledged letting her colleagues and company do with an impulsive tweet.”

Smith is expected to return on Tuesday.
