WNBA Media Fixation: Why Can’t Caitlin Clark Just Be Covered for Basketball?
from Don't @ Me with Dan Dakich · host Outkick
On this episode of Don’t @ Me with Dan Dakich, Dan breaks down why mainstream media coverage of Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark remains fixated on off-court politics and cheap narrative-spin rather than pure basketball. Following her candid ESPN interview with Malika Andrews—which aired shortly after Phoenix Mercury forward Alyssa Thomas’s controversial hit to her throat—Clark voiced her frustration over constant mischaracterizations by the sports media ecosystem. Dan also exposes the bizarre double standards facing the WNBA following Sophie Cunningham’s comments on protecting women's sports alongside former NBA players Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White declaring for the WNBA draft.
