She’s so insulated that me doing this has become a level of hate but really I need to spit out these facts… THESE LADIES SHOULD BE THANKING ME. I respect her as being one of the greatest athletes in that, but to not be able to ask her a few questions? Like, that’s not based in hate. I don’t hate Brittney Griner, I think she’s a great college basketball player, and women’s college basketball is actually pretty interesting to me. And me, just asking that question was like considered assault, the Mercury statement even used the word ‘hate’. She was literally the biggest political story for a year and not one journalist from any major outlet at ESPN, CNN, ABC, blah, blah, blah will ever ask her a hard-hitting question. This is so crazy about how insulated Brittney Griner is. Jason Whitlock: “Why did you do this?” Stein: “Calling out woke athletes. Alex Stein: “People are like ‘why would you ask that?’- well, first of all, I’m not trying to be a serious journalist, but when I ask a serious question ‘was it a fair trade?' and I don’t get the response, I grew up learning from the school of Howard Stern, shock-jock, then I ask her the Putin question which is so obviously false to try and kind of lighten the mood… I should have brought up her pronouns, I should have asked if she’s got weed in her bag.
