On this edition of Sage on Sports, Sage exposes what she sees as a glaring double standard in sports media following The Athletic columnist Candace Buckner’s controversial column calling for the Indiana Fever to dump Sophie Cunningham.
Sage breaks down how the “woke sports media” targets athletes who refuse to fall in line with mainstream political narratives, from Sophie Cunningham standing up for women’s sports to Drew Brees’ 2020 anthem comments. Plus, Sage highlights the WNBA’s unbending anthem rules, double standards in athlete activism, and why it’s time for more players to speak their minds without fear of cancellation
