Serena Williams Muscle Mass Shamed

If you’re looking for the definition of numb nuts reporting, look to journalists using selective Twitter posts in lieu of research. Every time Serena Williams wins another title, some social media trolls will inevitably drop banana eating gorilla n-bombs on Twitter because even retards need a hobby. Confusing outlier ignoramuses with legitimate criticism is where reporters with important feelings lose their credibility.

There are sports and tennis enthusiasts who are concerned that having the muscle mass of LeBron James gives Serena an unfair advantage when grinding 120 pound Slavs beneath her size fourteen Herman Munsters. The self appointed ministers of good taste insist that commentary about Serena’s extraordinary physique are inherently tied to misogyny and racial myths. She’s standing right in front of me cleaning and jerking 450 and I’m not supposed to notice? I’m not seeing her color, I’m pissing my pants hoping I don’t remind her of the guy who sold her bogus Ukrainian muscle mass supplements once behind the GNC.

Serena Williams has twenty grand slam titles and a net worth circling about $140 million. Racism and misogyny aren’t that poweful. I’m sure she gets undue crap laid at her doorstep, but it’s easier to manage when you have staff to wipe it up. If Serena gets 9,000 positive messages and six racist twat burns and you report only the latter as proof of your postulate, you have failed as a journalist and a human being. I hope she crushes your house the next time she makes landfall.
