Yet again Stuff proves that they'd last about a week if they put up a paywall...
That isn't written by a Stuff reporter. It is written by Sally Jenkins, a syndicated columnist for amongst other things the Washington Post. Funny story, she wrote Lance Armstrong's autobiography. Then when the scandal broke she defended him saying " I’m confused as to why using cortisone as an anti-inflammatory in a 2,000-mile race is cheating, and I wonder why putting your own blood back into your body is the crime of the century"
Stuff bought the piece, as have other media outlets around the world to give a bit of balance.
On the other hand the article is a disgrace. Worse than anything Rattue and Reason have ever written.

As for men getting easier treatment...

She doubled down on the sexist thing at the press conference.
So she'll be protected by her idiot enablers and go back to her ridiculously opulent life while the poor umpire will no doubt be crucified and never umpire a major game again.

@rocky-rockbottom Not since the 2008 Rugby League World Cup final has there been a more embarrassing awards ceremony following the game. The US Open official basically insults the winner Osaka by saying that everyone is disappointed that Serena didn't win.

With very few exceptions, all the media hot takes are standing up for Serena condemning the deplorable male ump for his rampant sexist racism and the usual atrocties. With very few exceptions, because news media is overwhelmingly staffed by biased SJW nutjobs who only care about sports insofar as they can libsplain and push their “progressive” brainwashing agenda.

While watching coverage of the press conference, and SW doubling down on her bullshit, and the fucking journos applauded her? That's fucked up

That's modern journalism. Not even sport is immune anymore.

Correction: American media, which is 98% certified virtue-signalling SJW libtard. It’s an exclusive club.

God I hope Trump starts defending her on Twitter.
That would be hilarious. He could offer to pay her fine out of his own pocket and a MAGA cap.
The meltdown from the cretins who have been excusing her behaviour would be something to behold .

She really is the Nick Kyrgios of women's tennis. Then goes one step lower by playing the racism and sexism cards afterwards to justify her childish behaviour.
Too much time hanging out narcissistic A-list celebrities has left her head well and truly buried up her own ass. Her older sister seems very level headed by comparison.
