The NABJ/Stephen A. Smith saga keeps unfolding — and this time I’m turning the lens on the commentators defending the “Thumbs Down” award.
D.L. Hughley had a furious response calling Stephen A. everything but his name. Rachel Lindsay called his criticism of Kamala Harris and Joy Reid “right wing.” Jemele Hill weighed in too.
I broke down why none of this holds up, and why so much of Black media functions less like journalism and more like a surrogate operation for the Democratic Party.
This is commentary and opinion based on publicly available statements. All individuals discussed are public figures commenting in their professional capacities.
Topics covered:
D.L. Hughley’s response, unpacked
Rachel Lindsay’s “right wing” claim about criticizing Kamala Harris
The double standard: criticizing Joy Reid isn’t criticizing “all Black women”
Jasmine Crockett’s popularity vs. her election loss
Why calling out politicians isn’t “disparagement” — it’s the job
