Months after she was removed from SportsCenter's "SC6" show and a spat with President Trump, Hill announced that she plans to leave the sports cable network to produce shows behind the camera about race and gender. “As much as I’d like to tell you about Golden State’s latest game or tell you about why Jacksonville can win the Super Bowl, some days I just didn’t give a sh*t because of everything else that was happening in this country," Hill said Sunday at OZY Fest.

Before the controversial former SportsCenter host and ESPN agreed to a divorce and a buyout of the remaining three years on her contract, ESPN tried to talk her into becoming a regular on Highly Questionable and a host on the since-canceled SportsNation, according to the New York Post. Hill's last day at ESPN, which was originally reported to be last Friday, will instead be on Sept. 15.
