also, to add to the fact that Rachel Nichols is a Woke progressive, hopefully no one in politics or media who is moderate to the right gives her any attention from this. she made her bed and now she can lay in it. this is exactly the type of Woke nonsense that far left, white people like Rachel Nichols have created.

she supported all of this type of shite and helped spread the propaganda when it was convenient for her on social media. posted her black square on IG last year, posted how evil Trump is, posted pro-Woke Supremacy type stuff, etc., etc. frick her

I don’t hate Nichols at all and get her frustration but it was an incredibly tone deaf, even behind supposed closed doors.


What could she possibly be frustrated about? She is, herself, a DIVERSITY HIRE.

She is not remotely good at her job. She's like Hannah Storm used to be at NBC in the 1990's. A politically-connected woman who got to do sports despite her glaring inadequacies.

Let them eat themselves like Ouroboros.

I can't wait until the Equity Hires are doing things like architecture and designing large bridges.

Nah, she grinded her way through newspapers and was a very good writer in the 90's before making the transition to TV.

Rachel was great at her job in her first stint at ESPN and with CNN... then she came back to ESPN and sold her soul to the NBA and went from serious journalist to wacky basketball show host.

Doesn't mean she wasn't a good newspaper journalist back in the day.

She was at the Washington Post in 1996, she didn't marry Sawyer's son until 2001.

She can always work for CNN, they let a guy come back who jacked off on a working zoom call.

The best thing is that he's celebrating all this outrage, but eventually he too will probably be caught in the woke net. Somewhere there's a black Woj-type "journalist" watching all this and just sharpening his knife.

I could be wrong, but I thought there were some diseases that mostly only affected Jewish people


Tay-Sachs, Gaucherie Disease and Wilson disease are all much more prevalent in Jews. Tay-Sachs is known to be almost Jewish exclusive from what I remember from my college biology class. Ashkenazi and Mizrahi Jews are an ethnicities that have distinct traits unto themselves but saying Jews are an ethnicity is to general which is where some of this confusion is coming from.

The audio getting out is BS. She didn't say anything I would would consider awful. She's just venting frustrations. She actually stayed pretty professional even while talking to someone she trusts.

I suppose the hottest black woman on ESPN is Sage Steele.

This is an interesting situation to follow.

The way it is developing makes me want to see both Rachel and Maria getting lower profile assignments in the future.

It’s Malika Andrews for me



Waz han la bae?


I like Maria but she’s kinda dry as a host. Rachel has longevity on her side so i can see why she’s upset. Either one is an upgrade over Beadle (who I didn’t hate)
