[@youngrob2121]

I've been saying this for the longest time. I've only seen Giannis refuse to answer one of her questions I believe he actually got up and left the room. So mad respect to him. But ESPN management loves what she is doing and there's not a doubt in my mind that they encourage her to do what she is doing. The only way they are going to get rid of her is when NBA players like Curry LeBron Leonard Durant Etc refuse to do interviews with her. But I believe that will never happen because of where we are as a society and social media with women being so quick to call them misogynistic and that hurting their brand. They would not want to mess up their money to do what is right. And let's be honest there's no way in hell that NBA players are not having the same conversations we are having about her. Again they are just afraid of the backlash of refusing to do an interview with a woman no matter are Justified

Quick question. Does she slam all black men or just the ones who get into stupid situations?

[@yus6078]

I’m tired of journalists saying “ if I didn’t ask that question, I wouldn’t be doing my job”… man who tf asked you people to ruin that young man’s moment. Saying it was an obligation is laughable. An obligation to whom exactly? For ratings? The public would have waited for a better time, it’s 2023. You journalists have an obligation to be better.

[@AggravatedMan365]

Preach!!!

[@joeshmoe2746]

Who tf told these black athletes to ride with guns, flash them online, point red dots at people after making death threats, beat there wife until they end up in the hospital.. when do black folk wake up and say hey what the hell is wrong with us. Not cry online and on TV about how unfair everything is toward a group of people that end up in prison way more than any other race.

You can pick and choose what you want to say as a journalist, and that is how people begin to like you because they agree with the points you being light about!

Nobody believing that BS, she's come at black athletes multiple times and even vilified a man who died trying to protect a woman. If she isn't the one making the decision to do these things, then the only other option, is that it comes from her bosses. Which means there's a much larger problem with ESPN that's needs to be addressed. So which is it?

[@fivepillars4880]

It’s obvious she isn’t being consistent when an NBA player died for protecting a woman in a domestic violence abuse scenario, she brought up his past troubles which she was never charged for or never got in trouble for anything illegal, but yet she still brings up his issue, the guy is dead. He died protecting a woman, yet she still dragged him through the mud
