Dave Portnoy Criticizes ESPN for Coverage of DiJonai Carrington Incident
Dave Portnoy has voiced his discontent with ESPN's coverage of a recent incident involving WNBA player DiJonai Carrington. During an episode of FS1's Wake Up Barstool, he criticized the network for failing to address Carrington's tweet about 'white privilege' after her ejection from a game against the Sky.
Carrington was removed from the game after a flagrant foul on Sophie Cunningham, and shortly after, she posted a comment on social media that Portnoy deemed outrageous. He argued that the focus should have been on her tweet rather than the foul itself, claiming that ESPN's panel overlooked this critical aspect of the story.
Portnoy further labeled Carrington as one of the dirtiest players in the league, referencing her playing style and past incidents. He concluded his remarks by calling for the dismissal of the Fever's head coach, Stephanie White, for her defense of Carrington.
