Not really. They gave Reilly money for the magazine and website and it was at a time when magazines stopped mattering. They just threw him on TV because he was a known personality.

So do u agree with Whitlock? It obviously not her fault but she should have the awareness that she got where she has gotten not bc of the merits of her journalism or communications background.



Well there’s no reason to come at her if you understand that. Whitlock, like Clay Travis have pivoted so hard from what they were in order to sell clicks, and you people just eat it up lol

The fact that she had to make her Twitter account private says otherwise.


Whit definitely went at her neck and didn't hold any punches, but is it really surprising that she made her twitter private after being blasted by a fellow media member? Her Dm's are probably in the thousands right now. You should expect this reaction from anyone that suddenly and controversially is trending on Twitter.


What spawned this blast from Whitlock? Do they have a past beef?

The point is valid

The fact that she doesn't do live TV is a joke

It is obvious that ESPN screwed up since they don't have her arse doing something on College Gameday. That audience is right in her wheelhouse.



Or anything College football related. She would be way better than Marty Smith. I believe I read something long ago (Or maybe it was mentioned here) that Rspn chose Marty over Katie and thought he was a star in the making for them? Both seem to be kind of meh at the moment.

He could have wrote a similar column on Bomani Jones
Not really, that wouldn't have made any sense at all.

A fat hack wrote an article about a useless but pretty hack.
What a time to be alive. Just what I want to read

I don’t listen to Nolan - does she talk about privilege and stuff like that a lot?

I know every article is for clicks

But not every article is calling out Katie Nolan like he is.

Idk how you aren’t grasping this concept.

You people? Wow. Whitlock sees through a lot of the BS hypocrisy in sports especially where it comes to SJ. Calling out how bad it is in America yet being totally silent on real SJ issues in China is top level hypocrisy.

Nolan rode her looks to the top of her craft. She can’t call out other’s “privilege“ w/o looking in the mirror and understand she benefitted by that same privilege.

So, absent her recent Karen proclivities, what should she have done differently? Should she have turned down all these positions & refused the big bucks? Seems there are a lot of cute, perky, eye candy - types on sports tv now vs even one BBW - type. Be honest, using only ESPN as the model, how many ESPN sports ...whatever title works for you...analysts do you like? I can't separate her from the pack with regards to criticizing. sorry.

If your neighbor acts like your best friend to your face, but then tells everyone else in the neighborhood that you are a frick nut, you’re gonna be a little bewildered and wonder why he acts different in front of your face.

Simple enough for you?
