BiographyJemele Juanita Hill ( jə-MEL; born December 21, 1975) is an American sports journalist. She worked for the Raleigh News & Observer, the Detroit Free Press, and the Orlando Sentinel. She joined ESPN in 2006 and worked in various roles until 2013, when she succeeded Jalen Rose as host of ESPN2's Numbers Never Lie. The show was rebranded to His & Hers which she co-hosted with Michael Smith. Hill and Smith co-hosted SC6, the 6 p.m. (ET) edition of ESPN's flagship SportsCenter from 2017 to 2018.

She sparked a controversy in 2017 with a series of tweets critical of President Donald Trump including describing him as a white supremacist. She was later suspended for two weeks for a second violation of ESPN's social media policy when she suggested fans of the Dallas Cowboys boycott the team's sponsors in retaliation for Jerry Jones' stance on players kneeling during the national anthem.

In 2017, she won an Emmy Award for Outstanding News Special for the ABC News Special The President and The People. In 2018, Hill left her role as co-host of SC6 and joined the ESPN website, The Undefeated. She left ESPN shortly afterward to work as a contributing writer for The Atlantic. From August 2020 to February 2021, she co-hosted Vice's Cari & Jemele (Won't) Stick to Sports alongside Cari Champion.

Hill is the co-founder of the film and production company Lodge Freeway Media and published her autobiography Uphill: A Memoir in 2022.
