Jason Whitlock is a Racist Prick

I don’t understand how Jason Whitlock has a syndicated column. His whole shtick is racism. He is a racist who shuns racism. Yes, you read that correct. His entire gig is the accusation of racism through the rhetoric of one of the most racist human beings to ever be given a published public forum. This post is my dedication to the disgust that his most recent article has sparked in me. Jason Whitlock may never read this… then again, I imagine he sits around and Googles himself most of the day… but I just have to express my complaints so I can resume the rest of my day.

The Erin Andrews scandal is by no means any kind of racial issue no matter how Whitlock tries to spin it. The Erin Andrews scandal is an issue of privacy… a violation of privacy without knowledge while behind a closed and locked door. If I were to go to the hotel next door and place a reverse peephole viewing camera on the door of a paying customer (black or white, male or female) inside the hotel, I would be arrested without a shadow of doubt. I would be charged and input as a Peeping-Tom in the National Sex Offender Registry.

With the pictures and video circulating the web, this has become a national embarrassment to Ms. Andrews and to publicly discredit the issue by accusing ESPN for being racist by NOT further embarrassing one of their own employees is a disgrace to the ethics of media journalism. Jason Whitlock is a downright scoundrel trying to create a stir out of a non-issue and further promoting the divide between the races that make up the majority of this nation.

His examples of “injustice” to the black community bear no resemblance or relevance to this particular issue. Stuart Scott’s alleged text message scandal was never a national issue. In fact, his column was the first time I heard of the alleged “Lemme know” text that proves nil and promotes nothing except speculation.

Isiah Thomas’ suit against him for sexual harassment went to court and he was ordered by a jury to pay 11.6 million dollars to the accuser. Shannon Brown’s civil suit got just as much attention in the media as Ben Roethlisberger’s civil suit sans criminal investigation so there is no point to be argued there either.

The biggest negligence to truth came in his reference to Pacman. Pacman Jones’ off-field drama last season was not just a media exploitation… it was more of a snowball building of numerous stories that surrounded the troubled corner back. In the span of 2 years, the man got in an altercation with a valet attendant while on probation, was pulled over and arrested for being connected to a cocaine bust, was arrested and charged for disorderly conduct and public drunkenness after spitting in the face of a woman at a nightclub, beat down his own personal security guard while in a drunken stupor, was involved in shooting at a Las Vegas strip club after publicly assaulting a stripper, and was accused of allegedly ordering a hit by members of his entourage after an altercation at an Atlanta nightclub. The media attention that he got was very much warranted and it had to do with the fact that he was an out of control hooligan, not because of the fact that he was a black male athlete.

Athletes of all races are targeted by gold-diggers and con artists for the money in their pocket, not the color of their skin. The reporting of bullshit cases get tired and wears on the audience.

I am surprised and regularly appalled by Fox Sports for the publishing of Jason Whitlock’s columns on a weekly basis, but his most recent article in regards to the Erin Andrews story has struck a nerve so deep that if I ever see that pigheaded, overzealous bastard, I will surely leave knuckle indentations on his bloated jaw line. The fact that this guy won an award for National Journalism is a greater disgrace to the industry than the political and corporate alignment of the major market newspapers. At least they aren’t fooling anybody.
