ESPN has built a culture of racism
Washington Examiner ^ | May 21, 2025 | Zachary Faria

ESPN has built a culture of racism at the network, leading its personalities to become some of the most toxic in all of media.

The latest example of this comes from the latest Caitlin Clark nontroversy. In her first game of the season, Clark fouled Angel Reese, who flopped and then tried to start a confrontation. Clark was given a flagrant foul mostly due to Reese’s overreaction, as the foul was a typical foul you would see in any basketball game.

Former ESPN personality Robert Griffin III said in the aftermath that Reese “hates” Clark, which is not a crazy suggestion given that Reese cheered a far more blatant flagrant foul against Clark committed by one of her teammates last season. That led current ESPN personality Ryan Clark to imply that Griffin isn’t black enough to comment on this and understand “what black women have to endure in this country,” because Griffin, who is black, committed the crime of marrying a white woman.

Just LOL watching these idiots tear at each other. ESPN has a vested interest in the WNBA as they carry a lot of games.

ESPN pretends to be sports oriented as they push their liberal racist agenda first and foremost.

When in doubt, there's always the brown paper bag test.

It would seem to me that many black women aren’t mature enough to be involved in pro sports. There’s things really wrong with their character.

I never saw so many men in dresses until I saw the WNBA draft.

Started a long, long time before this....hell- half their commentators were whining that Shedeur Sanders falling out of the draft’s initial ten selections was in fact- wait for it now- racist!!

And that was every day for the two months before the draft even arrived!!

Now this might sound racist coming from old white dude, but that slow-footed, corn-fed white girl from Iowa with the dark hair is a pretty good basketball player.

Would that be because of their parent company LGBT-DISNEY, INC.?

Would it be because they are frequently known to hype thier financial interest in the SEC to influence voters at bowl time?

ESPN is more about money making and their own bottom line than objective reporting. If they can scare up some revenue using Race, Gender or even religon it all the merrier for the Libturds working for the network.

Most women’s basketball, and especially the WNBA is not much fun to watch. Inside play by women, who completely lack the power, speed, and leaping ability of the men, is just horribly boring. But Clark plays a speeded up version of the game where the ball moves quickly, and not always where you expect. She is actually fun to watch because it sometimes looks like she’s playing a completely different game from the rest of them.

Race sells. Look at how they’re using it in the WNBA.
