Jason Whitlock claims WNBA has launched an ‘anti-Caitlin Clark propaganda campaign

Caitlin Clark has been under intense scrutiny since joining the Indiana Fever as the No.1 draft pick, becoming one of the most talked-about stories in the WNBA. However, not all of the coverage has been positive.

Her performances are meticulously analyzed, and everything she says and does off the court is closely watched. Additionally, some veteran WNBA players have targeted her, feeling she is receiving too much attention for a newcomer.

Recently, Jason Whitlock of Blaze TV’s “Fearless” claimed that there is a propaganda campaign against Clark by the WNBA to make her life more challenging.

Whitlock’s bold claim

“I want to describe the difference between ‘box score’ and ‘box office,’ and it’s a very important distinction as it relates to the WNBA. The WNBA has a problem with ‘box office.’ They want to focus everyone’s attention on ‘box scores’ because they don’t like the person who’s bringing the ‘box office,’ bringing the crowd, selling tickets, and driving television ratings,” Whitlock began.

“Caitlin Clark is ‘box office.’ The WNBA has suffered from a lack of ‘box office.’ Caitlin Clark is clearly the most valuable player in the history of the WNBA, she’s clearly the best rookie the WNBA has ever seen, she’s clearly the Rookie of the Year in the WNBA halfway through, but now they want to point you to the ‘box score,’ and ‘ANGEL REESE IS MAKING HISTORY! SHE’S GOT 10 STRAIGHT DOUBLE-DOUBLES! THIS IS A NEW RECORD!’ ESPN is putting out tweets and posts, and ‘LOOK AT THIS, ANGEL REESE HAS MADE HISTORY! LOOK AT HER BOX SCORE! UNBELIEVABLE!’

“No one knows who had the record for nine-straight double-doubles, no one cares. Who has the record even in the NBA? Do we have any clue who’s had the most consecutive double-doubles? It’s a distinction, it’s not a record. Angel Reese is someone that you check her box score, you don’t go to her games, you don’t watch her games. Did you see her shot chart in the fourth quarter when she was just rebounding all of her missed shots?”
