"I think we miscalculated a little bit,” says Norby Williamson, ESPN’s executive vice president of studio production, of the experiment of putting debate all over its schedule, most notably on the Jemele Hill-Michael Smith 6 p.m. SportsCenter. “The perception became that you could just roll a talent out there and it doesn’t matter what he or she is saying — that the content didn’t matter. I just never believed that.”
