After twelve years of work, journalist/host Jemele Hill is leaving ESPN!
According to Bossip, Hill will receive about $6 million from ESPN in reference to the multi-year deal that was signed in 2016.
Hill reportedly met with ESPN president James Pitaro to come to this ‘buy-out’ decision.
Not only is Jemele Hill prepped to leave, but she launched a production company with her friend Kelley L. Carter titled ‘Lodge Freeway Media.’
We are looking forward to seeing what’s next for the trusted journalist!
