Another that crossed my mind was the formerly know as Chris Jackson

When he converted to Islam, changed his name to Mahmoud and started to sit for the national anthem...the NBA fined and suspended him for choosing not to stand during the national anthem

...which has absolutely nothing to do with the actual game of basketball...

They eventually worked out a compromise...and I'm sure there can be some middle ground with Naomi

The zero tolerance stances never work.

If we're being really real...Naomi is also addressing the sad state of journalism today

These reporters don't want access so they can ask some insightful question that will enlighten readers

They want to go viral
They want that reaction or moment that will raise their profile

The competition and game play has enough compelling drama to write an article...I think we're missing the issue of journalistic integrity in 2021

They out for clicks.
