Angel Reese turned upside down: The fever interview made MC ESPN confused in the wave of criticism

In an interview with rapidly spread on social networks last week, basketball star Angel Resee made the online community “stir up” when cleverly protesting a series of questions that were thought to be prejudiced from the veteran MC of ESPN. The seemingly normal conversation has quickly become the focus of debate when Reese actively “flipped the flag”, causing the host to fall into a passive position between the wave of backlash from the audience.

It all started when MC ESPN asked Reese’s “controversial act of controversial behavior” in a recent match. However, instead of avoiding or giving defensive answers, Reese frankly pointed out the deviation in the way the media put the problem with the black athletes compared to white colleagues. “If I do it, it is arrogant, and others are called confidence? It is time for us to look back on this unfair treatment,” she said definitely.

The reaction of the audience quickly exploded on social networking platforms. Hashtag #angelreese and #DoblyLestandards (dual standard) climb to top trending twitter in just a few hours. Many people praised Reese not only for their skill on the field but also for the courage and sharpness when faced with sensitive questions. Some media experts even call this moment “a turning point in the way of sports”.

In contrast, ESPN has not made an official feedback. However, the internal source said the broadcaster is “reconsidering” an interview approach to young athletes, especially those from the minority community.
