@HiltonHotels This is unacceptable. My wife and I have been waiting hours and have multiple reservations this weekend in Philadelphia that are now in jeopardy. Help is needed first and foremost. Relief is needed next
Today’s media environment in a nutshell:
The original poster — if it’s even a real person — didn’t know I haven’t worked at ESPN since 2018. I clearly responded with sarcasm.
This tweet gets millions of views, and the comments are completely overrun with bots.
And now there are several AI-generated/aggregated websites “reporting” that I resigned from ESPN on Twitter yesterday.
This is why telling people to Google information doesn’t work.
Naomi Osaka on why she chose to host a party for the black tennis players:
“You know I'm seeing a little bit of-
‘Why can't you love everyone for all skin tones?’ and ‘what if someone had an all white party?! First of all I do love everyone for who they are no matter their race + ethnicity, (I'm literally half Japanese lol). I can only speak from my experiences in my own life though, growing up as a tennis player I didn't see many people that looked like ME and I feel like it's important to celebrate them.
Secondly I feel like it's important to note that there have been all white dinners/parties. I don't know how else to tell you this, I literally seen them all the time and never had an issue with it at all. To the people who ask this question I want to ask you this question too, ‘What is it about POC getting together that unsettles you so much?’
I want to end this by saying I grew up watching my dad get discriminated against, having the cops called on him multiple times at the tennis court. There are multiple things I will apologize for in my life but celebrating being black and appreciating who we are will never be something I would consider saying sorry for. Thanks.
Actually I lied, I am sorry. I'm sorry for the people who cannot comprehend in their brains that this is not about exclusion, this is a celebration about how far we have come 🖤”

@moreabundance@OleBeeM@charliekirk11 Simple answer. Look at the less qualified on the Supreme Court who don’t look like her. Simpler answer, yes. Simple question, do black people belong on the Supreme Court to you?
