Trail Blazers broadcaster nonsense shows we’re still living in a Woke 1 hell

The New York Post's Kirsten Fleming criticizes the Portland Trail Blazers for firing 29-year-old broadcaster Braiden Bell mere hours after hiring him. The decision followed the resurfacing of offensive tweets sent in 2012 and 2013 when Bell was 15 years old. The Trail Blazers subsequently released a statement apologizing to supporters, emphasizing their commitment to ensuring everyone feels welcome and safe.

Fleming argues that the dismissal reflects an absurd return to retroactive purity tests, insisting Bell was an immature teenager who deserves a second chance. She also points to what she views as organizational hypocrisy, noting the team signed guard Ja Morant despite his past controversies as an adult.
