seafoam1 3,452 Posted September 29, 2024 Wow. A white person is good at basketball, we liberals should all attack her for her being good because it's "White privilege". Liberals and black people are the most racist POS' on the planet. https://www.foxnews.com/sports/caitlin-clark-addresses-racism-following-wnba-statement-those-arent-fans-those-are-trolls?dicbo=v2-GNJPQFy WNBA rookie phenom Caitlin Clark has finished her first pro season and has already left an undeniable impact on the league. In just one year, Clark has been credited with drawing countless new followers to help the league break attendance and TV ratings records. However, Clark does not approve of all the league's new followers. During the Indiana Fever's exit interviews Friday after the team's season-ending playoff loss to the Connecticut Sun, Clark was asked about a statement released by the WNBA that condemned "racist, derogatory or threatening comments" directed at players, coaches and other figures in the league. Clark denounced anyone following the WNBA who makes prejudicial comments toward players. "Those aren't fans. Those are trolls," Clark said. "Nobody in our league should be facing any sort of racism, disrespectful or hurtful comments and threats." Race and racism have become frequent talking points relating to Clark's presence and the attention it has brought to women's basketball over the last few years. Clark has been on the receiving end of racially charged comments from fans and prognosticators since her ascent to stardom. ESPN's Pat McAfee referred to Clark as a "white b----" during an episode of his nationally televised show June 3 and later apologized. McAfee used the term during a discussion about how much popularity Clark was bringing to the league compared to other players, saying "I would like the media people that continue to say, ‘This rookie class, this rookie class, this rookie class.’ Nah, just call it for what it is. There’s one White b---- for the Indiana team who is a superstar." McAfee later apologized. In May, "The View" host Sunny Hostins said during an episode of that show that Clark's popularity was due, in part, to "white privilege." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
