There are WNBA journalists working hard AND spending their own dollars while holding down part-time jobs to cover the league the way it deserves. The call to action needs to be..HIRE THEM. Stop sending unknowledable, sexist, racist, clickbait “media” to cover WBB b/c it’s trendy.
I really hope the growth of the WNBA also leads to a growth in media coverage
I'm really interested in some of these players/storylines I didn't know about before and you need strong writers/journalists to tell those stories
