-Jemele Hill says she knows for a fact that SAS wasn’t the reason Cari got the job on first take. She said SAS “made it seem” like that.
-SAS bodies her saying she didn’t even know her when starting at ESPN, so how would she know? She only knows what Cari told her. Said Jemele is a journalist and should know that saying something “sounds like” is not the same as what was actually said.
-SAS never said he recruited her. He gave credit to the person who recruited her. Executives wanted her, but Skip wasn’t sure and was the one that needed to give the thumbs up. SAS is the one who spoke with him, and that’s where the “She wouldn’t have been here if it wasn’t for me” came from. He had to convince Skip.
-Pulled up text messages from the executive that recruited Cari, pretty much confirming SAS is correct in what he’s saying.
I believe it Skip had a lot of power on first take
