Great story right here. I laughed out loud when I saw it hit Twitter.
Background –
Josh Hawley is a Republican senator from Missouri, the guy who beat Claire McCaskill in 2018. 40 years old, youngest senator in the swamp right now. He sent a letter to NBA Commissioner Adam Silver criticizing the league’s deference to China, which was then disseminated via press release to a number of media outlets.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski apparently replied to the email from his iPhone, writing “f*ck you” –
Woj bomb!
Couple of thoughts here:
Pretty messy. Good for a quirky blog post, but NBA reporters telling U.S. Senators to fuck off seems unnecessarily surly (though it’s par for the course in 2020).
Update:
Woj apologized –
