SI has been dying for years. It failed to make the digital jump and when it did ESPN basically dominated, along with other niche sport sites. If anything, the fat chicks in swimsuits was a Hail Mary, and wokeness was not THE reason SI died, but was part of the death rattle.

It amazes me when corporations say shite like this like they are immune from the blowback. Especially when your target demographic is buying your magazine to see actual women and you’re giving them men instead.

When was the last time SI was relevant? Well before this woke nonsense. Saying that’s the cause is lazy…like money printer goes brrr in every thread.

She may have gotten old — it happens to the best of us — but she didn’t get fat.

They're all reading from the same script.

“If you don’t like it, you can go somewhere else”

- SI Trans model.

"And if you don't like my politics, don't buy my book."

Bud Light is clearly a woke blunder as the beer lost its #1 immediately upon the trans video going viral.

The same cannot be said for SI.

Try again you lazy one-note hack.

So true.

What is equally amazing is to see a pre-programmed bot come in declaring that the blow-back over this “trans” insanity from the primarily male audience that comprised SI’s core demographic had nothing whatsoever to do with SI’s declining fortunes.

Certainly the magazine seemed ill-prepared for the changing media landscape and had not readily adapted to this new age of digital media, yet prescribing a massive dose of strychnine as a remedy to kill a cancer will also kill the host organism itself.
