If their league made the money the NBA does then they would be paid more.

Their league makes less and they get paid less.

Their league is subsidized by the NBA. It is a bankrupt enterprise. Their expenses exceed their income.

Why the MSM keeps ignoring this fact is just another example of how corrupt the media is in pushing an agenda.

It all becomes really easy to understand when you think about it like this:

1) How rare is your skill or talent?

2) How much money can that skill or talent make someone else?

The WNBA really falls short on number 2.
