ESPN sports journalist Jemele Hill has been suspended for two weeks after tweeting about Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones' threat to bench players who kneel during the national anthem. The network has instructed employees to avoid inflammatory speech, especially on social media, as it may "compromise the network's business objectives," writes Sports Illustrated's Michael McCann.

Many departing employees want no part of exit interviews, but done well, these meetings can identify weaknesses in company culture, writes Stuart Hearn, a performance-management specialist.
