"Kim Mulkey proved the Washington Post right all along"

from AwfulAnnouncing.com, clearly a shill of WaPo.
No worries. This is how the article starts.
Kim Mulkey proved the point of the Washington Post’s profile before it was even published

quote:Two full paragraphs of that before he ever mentions Mulkey. When a writer somehow finds a way to weave his TDS into an article about a women's basketball coach, you know you're reading shills for hire.
There are few things left on X (Twitter) to enjoy but one of them, for me, remains the way that @heyitschili deploys “Folks, we got him” every time there’s bad news for Donald Trump.
It simultaneously taps into so many things that encapsulate the world we’ve been living in for the last eight years. The desperate when-will-it-finally-happen desire to see the former President finally face something resembling genuine consequences. The ember of hope that THIS TIME will finally be the domino that ends his nightmare. The seemingly never-ending parade of crimes and misdemeanors that inspire so much schadenfreude you could power an island country with it. And the darkly true realization that, no matter how bad this latest bit of trouble might sound, you know in your heart it’s not gonna lead to anything because that’s not how the world works

She doesn’t have to read the article to be offended by it. If people tell her certain things about it, she can know what’s in it and be offended without reading.
Awful Announcing is slightly to the right of the coastal elite newspapers, and they don’t even try to hide their liberal bent on anything. On top of the fact most of their contributors are below the age of 30 (and, yes, that makes a difference in the media). Most of them lack real journalism experience, regardless of what the blog/TV station intern credits they all claim in their bios.

My favorite is his assertion that Trump would have been convicted a long time ago, but 'the system' keeps saving him.
They also believe Mulkey should be convicted of thought crimes.
That is what many are either missing, or willfully ignoring because they ultimately agree with the approach. The latter is what is frightening.

Prog libs make this world worse for everyone, including themselves. It has to be by design but I still can't quite figure out the why.
The Mulkey hate is 100% political. It's insane.

For those that didn't/won't take the time to read the article. Here's the cliffs notes.
- Mulkey said the WaPo article was a hit piece
- This article contends that it wasn't, it just showed that she is human with good traits and not good traits
- The reference to Trump was an analogy of how the left want articles like this to be a "Gotcha!" moment and the right gets defensive on articles before they are written or read. The way the WaPo article was discussed before dropping invoked the same types of feelings on both sides.
- The CKM "proved the article right" is a reference to the fact that she takes loyalty very serious and is very set in her ways and having an article shed light on some negative traits discussed by former players and family would expectedly get the reaction she gave. She's human.
It really wasn't a negative article about CKM.

Progressives shouldn't be sports writers. They were band figs.

You guys that are posting the link to the bullshite article are too stupid to realize you are part of the click bait problem.

TDS at its finest. They should move to China or Venezuela. Would fit in much better there
Posted on 3/31/24 at 11:03 am to blueboy
I can't believe this trash. Forget TDS, we now have CKMDS gone totally off the rails.

On one side, you have people with a principled disagreement of opinion and very strongly believe in the constitutional idea of a level playing field to debate them.
On the other side, you have hatred, contempt, arrogance, and a win at any costs mentality because there is no doubt that their ideas are best and anyone who disagrees must be saved from themselves, rights be damned.
One side is against a person they hate and the laws and principles that prevent them from destroying him. The other side is against those who would destroy our system just because they can't win fair and square in the marketplace of ideas.
And everything you said could be said about the other side. You've made his point perfectly.

Wait, which side is this again?
Posted on 3/31/24 at 11:25 am to LeClerc
Right, and you've made my point perfectly as well. If you can't see the difference, then you'll probably have trouble understanding the nuance that constitutional rights and free speech go both ways. The fair marketplace is more important than simply winning.

Two things wrong with this. One is that they say almost the same thing about you. You’d want to destroy the institutions that protect our democracy, Jan 6, yada yada. And two, you say they can’t win in the marketplace of ideas, but they have pretty much split the congress over the last couple of decades, and they have won the popular vote in Presidential elections in every one except 2004 going back to 1992. Again, get out of your echo chamber and look around.

That's exactly the difference. One side wants a single echo chamber for everyone and can't seem to handle fair debate, the other wants a free marketplace of ideas. Regardless of how passionate and invested they are on both sides, these two approaches are not equivalent.

In 2007 Don Imus lost his radio program because he said the Rutgers women's basketball team looked like a bunch of nappy headed "hos".......... This article is more insulting and the LA Times should fire Ben Bolch as his insults were just as egregious and misogynistic.

These people are fricking deranged.
