If you judge someone by the color or their skin, it’s racist.
There is a little craziness happening in Iowa and with University of Iowa basketball star, Caitlin Clark. She just set the NCAA all-time women’s scoring record and can make even more history this season by passing Hall of Famer Pete Maravich of LSU for the all-time NCAA scoring record set in 1970. With two games remaining in the season, Miss Clark averaging ~30 points a game and just needs 51 points to break Pistol Pete’s record that he set during his three seasons in Baton Rouge.
But the leftist media’s treatment of Caitlin Clark shows just how corrupt the compromised media really is.
The mainstream media avoids reporting that the Hawkeyes guard overtook the previous NCAA all-time women’s scoring record holder, Kelsey Plum, in 13 fewer career games, while taking fewer shots. Or that Caitlin Clark’s deep three-point shot, showmanship and competitive intensity have sold out “never-before-sold-out” college arenas, where seats go for hundreds of dollars, and have broken TV viewership records. For a women’s college basketball game.
The mainstream media purposely avoids the point that Caitlin Clark is doing something no one in the history of women’s basketball has ever done. She is selling out arenas everywhere she goes and is responsible for the biggest television ratings in women’s basketball history. Isn’t that newsworthy? Of course, it is.
So, what is the problem?
The media’s problem with Caitlin Clark is that she is White and apparently Black women basketball players resent the accolades and attention the six-footer is getting. The WNBA can’t fill their stadiums. And the haters in the media and the WNBA are all over it.

No one has given a shit about the WNBA since it started. You couldn’t tell the difference in the crowd size before, during or after Covid.
Blacks think they own the sport, and for the most part they dominate it in sheer numbers. But let a Larry Bird, Pete Maravich or Caitlin Clark show up and you think it was an affront to their personal space.
The WNBA should be grateful Clark is about to fill up their stands next year when she goes pro.
