ESPN DEI Hire Tells Caitlin Clark Fans (The Majority Of WNBA Viewers) To Stop Watching WNBA Playoffs
Outkick ^ | September 26, 2024 | Bobby Burack

Caitlin Clark's season is over. The Sun eliminated Clark's Fever on Wednesday. To many viewers, they have no interest in the WNBA season if Clark is not playing.

ESPN commentator David Dennis Jr. hopes that is the case.

"I hope the people who say they are staying away from the WNBA now that CC is gone actually keep to their promise," Dennis posted on X on Thursday. "These are about to be all-time series and their toxicity isn’t needed. Let us enjoy things."

In other words, an ESPN employee is encouraging the vast majority of WNBA viewers to stop watching the WNBA playoffs, which ESPN exclusively airs.

A drastic difference remains in interest between WNBA games featuring Clark and games that do not. This season, games in which Clark played averaged 1.178 million viewers. Games without her averaged just 394,000 viewers.

If I'm not mistaken, one of the Disney wokesters told Disney+ viewers not to watch The Acolyte if they didn't like the series' "gayness."

A few months later, the series was canceled, its star was fired, the marketing agency that had the account was dumped, and all Acolyte merchandise was removed from Disney's on-line retail store.

Sounds like somebody got a little too big for “their” britches. Don’t write a check you’re not ready for somebody to cash!

White Americans could crater the WNBA if they were sufficiently inspired to do so.

A lot of these vicious “jernalist” creeps need a serious “tune-up”.

Wait, are you telling me that there is a professional basketball league in which the players are girls?

“ and their toxicity isn’t needed. Let us enjoy things.”

So he wants the audience to go from thousands watching with Caitlin, back down to the normal dozens watching ?

They're getting away with this kind of behavior because they're not worried about making a profit.

This is the leftist mindset, let’s hope it happens. Tired of these idiots. Btw as usual the left projects and the toxicity comes from them, but in their biosphere of “superiority “ they can’t see this

A white heterosexual girl from farm country can play basketball, so her fans are racist?! Herein lies the problem with Critical Race Theory: it is the original sin that can never be expiated.

“You’re white right? Therefore you’re racist!”

No different from…

“You’re a Jew right? You’re a pig and a monkey!”

They would be smart to have Kaitlyn come in and broadcast the games

It doesn’t matter. Caitlin said she’s going to become a professional golfer. I think she’s tired of being beat up in the W. I’ve seen her swing on video and she’s really good.
