Behind the Line

The mainstream media likes to describe figures like LeBron James and Colin Kaepernick as courageous. Colin Kaepernick recently released a book...and the media promoted it relentlessly. However...when the media has an example of true courage in Jonathan Isaac they choose to ignore it.

We discuss the lack of mainstream media coverage surrounding the recently released book by Jonathan Isaac. We compare the media coverage with Colin Kaepernick to Jonathan Isaac...and explain why the media is choosing to ignore Jonathan Isaac.

The WNBA regular season has started without much mainstream impact. Both WNBA games on ESPN2 last weekend struggled to draw an audience...and the increased mainstream media exposure doesn't seem to be helping the WNBA.

We reveal and react to a recent article published by Jezebel. We dispel several excuses used to explain the consistent struggles in the WNBA. We also explain the biggest reason the WNBA struggles to draw an audience...and why money isn't the solution to the problem.

Carron Phillips is trying hard to be the wokest of the woke. Monday afternoon...he published some of the best propaganda we've ever seen to Deadspin. Carron Phillips tried to tie what happened in Buffalo to white people watching the NBA Playoffs.

We reveal and react to the article from Carron Phillips. We explain how this is another attempt by Carron Phillips and the woke to create a mythical divide. We discuss how social justice warriors have lost their influence...and people like Carron Phillips are attempting to create a mythical enemy to disguise the real issues facing the country.

Apparently part of Mina Kimes job description as an NFL analyst at ESPN is to endorse political candidates. Over the weekend...Mina Kimes took to Instagram to endorse Karen Bass as the next mayor of Los Angeles.

We discuss how this shows the hypocrisy at ESPN. Sage Steele was silenced for her political views...while Mina Kimes is allowed to actually endorse politicians without repercussion. We also discuss a study conducted by the Trifalgar Group that proved the vast majority of Americans want politics left out of entertainment and sports.

It will be at least another month until Brittney Griner returns to America. It was announced last week that she will remain another four weeks on foreign soil. This caused the fake sympathy in the mainstream media to ramp up around Brittney Griner...to the point where the woke are petitioning Joe Biden to get Brittney Griner released.

We react to the Brittney Griner petition failing to obtain enough signatures. We also discuss how the Brittney Griner situation proves the irrelevancy of the WNBA. We explain why most Americans aren't sympathetic to Brittney Griner...and how the mainstream media is blaming America for her situation.

Draymond Green has spent his career with the Golden State Warriors being overshadowed by Steph Curry...Klay Thompson and other star players. As a result...Draymond Green has constantly cried out for attention.

He chose a unique way to bring attention to himself Saturday morning. Draymond Green claimed that ESPN biased against black head coaches. We reveal and react to a couple of tweets from Draymond Green.

We explain our theory as to why Draymond Green is suddenly becoming more political. We also discuss the numerous times he's cried out for attention throughout his NBA career...and compare Draymond Green to a scenario prevalent in high school.

Keith Olbermann has seen his once prominent media career evaporate. Keith Olbermann went from one of the leading voices at ESPN and MSNBC...to being completely ignored by the vast majority of the country.

Keith Olbermann has been reduced to lashing out at people on Twitter...including mothers on Mother's Day. We reveal and react to Keith Olbermann going after Bethany Mandel on Mother's Day. We discuss how social justice warriors will be ramping up their antics this summer...since they're losing their influence on American culture.

NBA Playoff ratings continue surging behind Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors. We reveal and react to the most recent ratings for the second round of the NBA Playoffs. We also touch on Major League Baseball ratings...and their incompetence marketing Tuesday Night Baseball on TBS.

We reveal and react to WNBA ratings on ESPN2 Sunday night. WNBA ratings are once again embarrassingly low...and it seems no amount of free mainstream media promotion can make the WNBA popular.

Calvin Klein was once one of the leading fashion brands in the world. Over the last five to ten years...Calvin Klein has experienced a decline in sales and influence. Instead of analyzing market trends to figure out how to recapture market share...Calvin Klein implemented another strategy.

We reveal and react to the Mother's Day ad-campaign of Calvin Klein. We explain how this is another example of a major corporation trying to influence children. We present a recent survey conducted on teenagers...that proves the mainstream media agenda is having an impact on teenagers and especially young women. We discuss the potential consequences...and how it will impact the country moving forward.

Last month the Delaware State women's lacrosse team bus was pulled over outside of Savannah, Georgia. The incident was peaceful and respectful...and after briefly searching the bus the police sent the young women from Delaware State on their way.

Three weeks later...the Delaware State women's lacrosse team and the mainstream media are misconstruing the story. We reveal and react to a video of the incident...as well as the reaction from the mainstream media.

We explain how this is another example of the mainstream media creating a situation out of nothing.
