1. The reporters looked and sounded like idiots

You are not listening is correct -that was brilliant

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

2. Of course. The hamster running that wheel in their brains is going; "How do I

sound bite this!!!!".

[malaise]

3. Still banging my head

Damn! The stupid burns.

7. The woman in blue putting her

best front forward is from the local Fox station. Of course they are idiots. This is who they hire.

4. That was brilliant...

and in doing what he did, he showed what a bunch of puppets the media have become... totally complicit in making stuff up to fit a wealthy person(s) agenda to have it all.

5. Excellent!

[pangaia]

6. WOW. My newest hero.............!!!

And I never even heard of the guy...

[BigmanPigman]

8. As we say in Philly, FUCKIN A!

That was loud and clear to me! I WAS LISTENING!

He is making it as clear as glass to the media and the fucking moron that the message behind the entire kneeling issue is about racial injustice, and NOT a song or patriotism.

9. Eff Aye JACKSON!

10. Brilliant idea!

This keeps Faux News from throwing shade, leading and baiting the interviewee. That girl in blue intentionally shows heavy cleavage to distract him and catch attention - this is not good journalism!

Perfect - more of this!...... .......

11. Mr Jenkins has my utmost respect

They cannot take his words and twist them.

[calimary]

12. BRAVO!!!!

What is it going to take, for Pete's sake?

He spoke plenty eloquently enough, thank you very much. I don't think most of those press people got it. I don't think a lot of America gets it.

13. I Liked It

It was a fresh and novel way of communicating to the idiotic press who refuse to understand the message.

The message is NOT visiting the White House or the withdrawal of the invitation.

The message IS that the so-called "justice" system targets minorities for arrest, incarceration, and murder of people of color. With the dumm questions, they demonstrate over and over that they just don't get it and they aren't interested in finding out.

14. Awesome!

Gets points across - interspersed with "you aren't listening" - while implicitly making the point - that these sports stars have a platform that others do not have - as the reporters showed up to his press conference (in response to the spectacle the president created) to try to get this message out - and it is not about himself/the athletes selves.

Brilliant.

Powerful.

15. The paparazzi really do sound like morons. n/t

[Duppers]

16. Fantastic! Hope all outlets show this.
