On this week's episode of Throwing Shades we discuss the ongoing conversations surrounding Naomi Osaka's decision to bow out of the French Open in order to protect her mental health and how her decision and consequent scrutiny is part of a larger emphasis by athletes on their well-being and mental health as well as the criticism and entitlement from fans and members of the media. We also discuss the importance of diverse voices in sports coverage and the role of empathy in responsible journalism.
