ESPN torpedoes Colin Kaepernick-Spike Lee documentary



Spike Lee was reportedly hard at work on a documentary series for ESPN featuring ex-NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, until it was scrapped.

“ESPN, Colin Kaepernick, and Spike Lee have collectively decided to no longer proceed with this project as a result of certain creative differences,” ESPN said in a statement. “Despite not reaching finality, we appreciate all the hard work and collaboration that went into this film.”

The series was supposed to chronicle Kaepernick’s career with the San Francisco 49ers, which ended in 2016 when his dedication to social justice causes overtook his dedication to his sport. Most famously, Kaepernick began kneeling during the national anthem before games to protest racial injustice in America.

He has been unable to sign with any other team since, and in 2019 he reached a confidential settlement with the NFL after filing a grievance that accused the league of actively working against him to keep him unemployed.


BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock has his theories as to why the documentary series didn’t work out.

“Spike Lee is not talking about why. He signed an NDA — nondisclosure agreement. He got paid, got his money, so he’s going to keep his mouth shut,” Whitlock says.

“I think more than anything, there were all these people that were promising Colin Kaepernick, ‘Man, you’re going to go down in history. It doesn’t matter what they say now. Fifty years from now, people are going to be talking about you like you were MLK,’” he continues.

“And here we are just nine years from 2016, and Colin Kaepernick is a laughingstock. ... And so they just scrapped the whole thing that Spike Lee was going to do. It was just going to cause a bunch of negative publicity. The Colin Kaepernick psyop is a failure,” he says. “That’s my takeaway.”

NFL platforms ‘child-friendly’ drag queen cheerleaders



The NFL is pushing hard for male cheerleaders, with 12 of the teams featuring a DEI cheer lineup this season.

The Baltimore Ravens will have 19 male cheerleaders on their squad.

While fans are not happy, some claim that there have always been male cheerleaders — but there is a major difference between the male cheerleaders of the past and present.

“There are certain teams I saw this with the Rams when I had season tickets in the early '90s. They were at Anaheim Stadium. There were the regular Ram cheerleaders that wore the regular, skimpy suits, kind of looked like they were doing gymnastics,” BlazeTV contributor Steve Kim says on “Fearless with Jason Whitlock.”


“And there’s also a cheer squad, which they had, they were much more innocent, right? And those groups had big muscular guys because someone had to lift the girls and catch them as they’re doing the flips,” he continues.

“They were not acting or dressed like they were feminine. Like, you could tell those guys were in good shape. ... When you’re acting very feminine and sexualizing it, I think that’s the issue that certain people are having,” he adds.

BlazeTV contributor and former NFL wide receiver TJ Moe jokes that he is “one of those people.”

“Look, this is very flamboyant. It’s very gay. It’s openly, obviously, both of those things. There's no argument against that. Anybody who has a pair of eyes would tell you that. It’s the logical extension of, you know, the first openly trans cheerleader with Carolina that happened a few years ago,” Moe says.

BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock agrees with both Kim and Moe and isn’t surprised by the NFL’s move to force male cheerleaders down fans' throats.

“The NFL, I have low expectations for it. It bothers me that they’re going along with this. All this is a softer, more effective, child-friendly drag show. That's all this is. It's more effective,” Whitlock says.

“Your 8-year-old son says, ‘Daddy who’s this gym guy, and why is he dressed like a girl, what’s going on here?’ ... it just sparks conversations and puts thoughts in kids' heads,” he adds.

Angel Reese’s mystery back pain: Legit injury or PR exit strategy?



Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese has missed the last several games due to lingering back pain. No specifics about her injury or plans to return have been shared with the public.

Jason Whitlock’s conclusion: “She’s quit on the Chicago Sky.”

“She’s been claiming a back injury basically since the All-Star break, and there’s no details. ... Every week, there’s no update on what she’s struggling with, what she’s doing — there’s nothing,” he says.

“I think she’s using her back as an excuse to sit out because she doesn’t really care about basketball,” he adds.

“I think she looks over at Caitlin Clark and says, ‘Hey, Caitlin Clark is out with a legitimate injury. I proved my point before the All-Star game when I went on a 10-game run trying to justify being on the All-Star team. ... The Chicago Sky sucked this year. Peace out,’” he says.

Jason reveals that he came to this conclusion when he watched the Indiana Fever beat the Chicago Sky 92-70 last Saturday. Not only did Reese not play, she even “declined to travel to Indianapolis,” where the match was hosted.

Chicago Sky Coach Tyler Marsh addressed her absence with some ambiguous drivel about Reese focusing on her rehab and being “day-to-day,” but that failed to quell speculation that her absence has more to do with the Sky’s poor performance than a legitimate injury.

“We’ve never had an explanation on what caused the back injury [or] what’s a time frame for her recovery. ... All we’ve heard is ‘day-to-day’ and Angel Reese has disappeared,” says Jason, who assumes that her absence is about preventing “Ls on [her] resume.”

Reese and her groupies, he argues, will likely connect the Sky’s poor record to Reese’s absence, arguing that the team’s losses are “proof of how valuable Angel Reese is.”

But the truth is evident to him: “Angel Reese doesn’t really care about basketball.”

"Angel Reese is 6'3". What else was she going to do but play a sport? ... She has the athleticism to play, but does she really love this game? I don’t think so.”

7th Cincinnati mob attack suspect arrested; black leaders want charges against white male who slapped black male's face



A seventh Cincinnati mob attack suspect has been arrested — and black leaders want charges brought against a white male who was seen on video slapping the face of a black male just before the July 26 beatdown began.

Gregory Wright, 32, was taken into custody Monday and booked into the Hamilton County jail by 4:30 p.m. on charges of aggravated riot and aggravated robbery, WXIX-TV reported, adding that he pleaded not guilty at his Tuesday arraignment.

'You don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't spit in the wind, you don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger, and you don't slap a black man in the face.'

Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Tyrone Yates set Wright's bond at $100,000, the station said, adding that he will be on lockdown at home with an electronic monitoring device on his ankle if he bonds out of jail.

A criminal complaint indicates that police said Wright "did by force rip the necklace off the victim while he was being assaulted by four or more co-defendants attempting to cause serious physical harm," WXIX reported.

Wright then put the necklace in his pocket and took video of "the rest of the events," the station said, citing a police flyer asking for information about the suspect, now identified as Wright.

WXIX, citing court records, reported that Wright is a convicted heroin trafficker who, for most of his adult life, has been in and out of state prison and Hamilton County's jail.

More from the station:

Cincinnati police alleged in court filings in late 2013 and early 2014 that he sold heroin to a confidential informant on four occasions, including near the Cincinnati Zoo Academy.

They wrote in one of his many criminal complaints that he ran from officers on Nov. 1, 2013, in the area of Parkwood Avenue in Avondale and threw a plastic baggie holding individual prepared baggies of heroin.

When police caught up with him later that day on Vine Street, he had $662 on him and an additional baggie of heroin in his vehicle, the court filing states.

Several charges against him have been dropped amid plea deals with prosecutors or dismissed altogether at their request, the court filings show.

Those include possession of fentanyl, obstructing official business, trafficking in heroin, and possession of drugs.

WXIX also said Wright has been convicted of possession of drugs, illegally having a gun — he is unable to possess one due to his previous felony conviction — and carrying concealed weapons.

More from the station:

In the 2021 gun case, he was accused of running when police responded to a fight on Crown Point Drive in Sharonville.

Then, he violated the conditions of his probation by failing to report to his probation officer later that year, court records continue.

He failed to comply with his electronic monitoring court order, accumulating multiple curfew violations between Aug. 24, 2021, and June 28, 2022, plus the battery was dead on his ankle bracelet, the probation violation order states.

As Blaze News previously reported, six Cincinnati mob attack suspects were indicted Friday and hit with additional charges — and could get decades behind bars. At the time, the six were the only suspects police had charged in connection with the mob attack, but authorities also noted that more arrests and charges could be forthcoming.

WLWT-TV said the following five suspects have appeared in court: 39-year-old Jermaine Matthews, 24-year-old Dekyra Vernon, 34-year-old Montianez Merriweather, 25-year-old Aisha Devaughn, and 37-year-old Dominique Kittle. A sixth suspect, 38-year-old Patrick Rosemond, was arrested last Monday in Georgia.

All six suspects were indicted on eight charges each: three counts of felonious assault, three counts of assault, and two counts of aggravated riot, WLWT said, adding that each suspect faces up to 29.5 years in prison if convicted on all eight charges.

Meanwhile, Cincinnati's black leaders are saying the case's prosecution so far has been unfair to the black community — and they're demanding charges against a white male seen on video slapping the face of a black male just prior to the mob attack breaking out.

"What incited and who incited the rioting? If the riot is because of a slap, who incited the rioting?" Rev. Damon Lynch said to a crowd Monday at New Prospect Baptist Church in the Roselawn neighborhood, WXIX reported in a separate story.

After Lynch, who is black, played video of the face slap, he told the crowd, "And [mean]while the only people charged — again I'll say it — are the ones who look like me," the station said.

Ohio state Rep. Cecil Thomas (D) of Cincinnati added that "we have been asking why that individual, who slapped the black person, that ignited what has been identified as aggravated rioting, wasn't under arrest," WXIX noted.

Senior Pastor Tracie Hunter of Western Hills Brethren in Christ — who's also an attorney and a former Hamilton County Juvenile Court judge — said the case's investigation has been unjust, with unequal prosecution between white and black suspects, the station said.

"Six black people have been indicted ... but the white individual that appeared to incite the fight or riot and the other white individuals involved have not been charged at all," Hunter said, according to WXIX.

Hunter added that the white man "clearly intended to commit violence when he slapped the black man and set off the chain of events," the station reported.

WXIX said it reached out to Cincinnati Police Chief Teresa Theetge for comment and is waiting to hear back; in addition, the Hamilton County Prosecutor’s Office declined to comment to the station.

Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval on Tuesday said, "If you slap someone, if you engage in that kind of violence, you should be held accountable. I'm not going to tell the investigators what to do; that's not my role,” WXIX said in a yet another story.

The mayor added that "until everyone is held accountable, we haven't served justice," the station said.

Pureval during an Aug. 1 news conference about the mob attack said the male seen on video issuing the slap prior to the beatdown is being "actively investigated."

BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock — who's been commenting consistently on the mob beatdown since it all unfolded late last month — on Tuesday blasted Cincinnati's black leaders for their collective stance.

"If anybody watched this video, if anybody sees men and women kicking a man while he's down, if anybody sees a picture of a woman beaten, knocked out, and says, 'Hey, I'm going to organize a press conference at a church in Cincinnati,' and black leaders are going to complain, 'Hey, why isn't this white man that's getting kicked in the head, why hasn't he been charged?' that's a group of people in need of some humility," Whitlock said.

One of the clips Whitlock aired shows Rev. Lynch altering the lyrics of a Jim Croce song for his own purposes as he spoke to the crowd at church: "You don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't spit in the wind, you don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger, and you don't slap a black man in the face."

Whitlock responded to Lynch's words by saying, "Why is he racializing this? It's disrespectful to slap anyone, regardless of color, in the face. Is he saying ... if a black person slaps a black person in the face, it's OK? If a black gang member shoots a black man in the face, it's OK? If a black gang member accidentally shoots some young black child, it's OK? But everybody knows that you don't slap a black man in the face, I guess, unless you're black. He's in a church talking about common street thugs — and I'll include the white guy in that, because he ... seemed to be trying to fight with someone. ... [The reverend is] justifying to the people in that audience and other black people in Cincinnati that if you get slapped in the face by a white person, a gang of you all should jump on that man and beat up the woman. This is inside of a church! This is insanity; this is lack of humility."

David Justice CALLS OUT Halle Berry for not being motherly



Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry is well known for her skills in front of the camera, but according to her ex-husband David Justice, she isn’t known for her skills in the kitchen.

The former MLB star, 59, met Berry in May 1992 before marrying her less than a year later in January 1993. The pair divorced in 1997.

“I was young and had only been in, honestly, one real relationship before her. My knowledge and my understanding, my wisdom around relationships, just wasn’t vast. So I’m looking at my mom, and I’m a Midwest guy. So in my mind I’m thinking a wife at that time should cook, clean, you know,” Justice said on the “All the Smoke” podcast.

“Then I’m thinking, ‘Okay, if we have kids, is this the woman I want to have kids with and build a family with?’ And at that time, as a young guy, she don’t cook, don’t clean, don’t really seem, like, motherly,” he added.


While social media has erupted in anger at Justice for his “misogynistic comments,” BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock and BlazeTV contributors Shemeka Michelle and Delano Squires don’t believe Justice was wrong.

“There’s a lot of people who dismiss and diminish the role that a woman plays as a wife and a mother. And clearly David Justice believed that Halle Berry’s contribution to his home, as his wife and the mother of his children, was more important than her contribution to society as an actress,” Squires says.

Whitlock believes it appeared that their relationship was all about “looks” and “sexual attraction” at first.

“And then you actually get into the marriage,” Whitlock says, “like David Justice did and goes, ‘Hold on.’ This culture tells him, ‘What do you mean? It’s a rich, beautiful, powerful woman!’ And it doesn’t dawn on you until after you’ve made a mistake, after you've entered into a relationship, that this actually isn't what I want.”

DUMPED: Why Howard Stern is talk radio’s biggest fraud of all time



Turns out Stephen Colbert isn’t the only talk show host getting canceled this year. Howard Stern is now following closely in his footsteps, with reports circulating that SiriusXM will not be renewing his contract this year.

While leftist fans everywhere are outraged, BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock believes the cancellation is well-deserved.

“Howard Stern is perhaps the most fraudulent, disappointing media character. When Howard Stern was at the peak of his career ... I had respect for Howard Stern. It’s not that I thought he was the ultimate ultimate, but I thought he was authentic,” Whitlock says.

“He was politically incorrect. He was a shock jock, and he was the best at that. And then ... this guy pivoted into this woke clown,” he continues.


Whitlock believes the move to cancel Stern’s show has a lot to do with the “return of Donald Trump and the sea change around Donald Trump.”

“That is why SiriusXM is moving off of Howard Stern. The culture no longer supports something as inauthentic as Howard Stern,” he says.

Whitlock then plays a shocking clip from 1993 of Stern wearing blackface and freely using the N-word.

“That’s Howard Stern. And we’ve seen a guy for the last 12 years pretend like he’s some voice of integrity, morality, and Donald Trump and the MAGA movement are the worst people on the planet,” Whitlock says.

“There are certain people that have more freedom than everyone else here in America,” he continues. “They can get away with what Howard Stern just had done and put on tape and be in good standing and be celebrated and sign $100 million contracts despite that.”

“And then there are other people that couldn’t recover from that,” he adds.

Shedeur Sanders set to start tonight for Browns’ preseason opener, but is he being set up to fail?



Tonight, the Cleveland Browns will face the Carolina Panthers for their preseason opener at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina. To the surprise of many, rookie draft pick Shedeur Sanders will start as quarterback, making his NFL debut.

Some critics suspect that he’s being intentionally teed up for failure. One of them is Stephen A. Smith.

“I think he’s being set up to fail,” Smith said on a recent episode of ESPN’s “First Take.”

“There’s been 11 practices, if I remember correctly. [Sanders] has been playing against the third unit, he’s fourth on the depth chart, and then suddenly you throw him into the starting lineup, and he hasn’t had any reps with the first team at all?” he asked skeptically.

“It’s like you want him to fail. I’m not accusing the coaches of doing this; I’m not accusing the [general manager] of doing this. But that owner — Mr. Haslam — that’s a different animal right there.”

Jason Whitlock accuses Smith and other black broadcasters of turning Shedeur Sanders into a victim when he’s the furthest thing from it.

For starters, Whitlock notes, the claim that Sanders is being intentionally set up to fail falls flat when you consider that the Browns’ top two quarterbacks — Kenny Pickett and Dillon Gabriel — are currently dealing with hamstring injuries. That leaves the team with 40-year-old veteran Joe Flacco, who should be reserved for emergency situations; Tyler Huntley, who just signed with the Browns days ago; or the only option that makes sense — Shedeur Sanders.

Given the circumstances, Sanders is a competitor with an opportunity to shine, not a victim of a rigged system, Whitlock says.

Smith and others “constantly want to turn black men into victims rather than warriors, rather than competitors, rather than opportunity seekers. Everything is about, ‘We’re being set up for failure,’” he condemns.

There’s zero chance, he argues, that Sanders, as the son of NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, is being intentionally victimized.

“This is an incredible opportunity for Shedeur Sanders tonight,” Whitlock says.

The victim narrative, he speculates, is coming straight from Deion, who’s paved the way for Shedeur’s entire career.

Smith and others are “falling under the spell of Deion Sanders, who wants to make excuses for his boy. ... This is all about lowering the bar for Shedeur,” Whitlock says.

Is ‘Big Balls’ the next George Floyd of white people?



A former DOGE employee known as “Big Balls” was reportedly brutally beaten in an attempted carjacking.

“Big Balls,” whose real name is Edward Coristine, was left bloodied by a group of “thugs” in Washington, D.C., after trying to protect his girlfriend.

President Donald Trump called Mr. Coristine an “incredible man” and threatened to take federal control of Washington, D.C., until crimes of this nature were stopped.

“Crime in Washington, D.C., is totally out of control. Local ‘youths’ and gang members, some only 14, 15, and 16-years-old, are randomly attacking, mugging, maiming, and shooting innocent Citizens, at the same time knowing that they will be almost immediately released,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.


“The Laws in D.C. must be changed to prosecute these ‘minors’ as adults, and lock them up for a long time, starting at age 14. ... If D.C. doesn’t get its act together, and quickly, we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City,” he continued.

“If this continues, I am going to exert my powers, and FEDERALIZE this City. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump concluded.

“This image and this guy is going to end up being the George Floyd for white people, that he is going to be a rallying cry. It’s clear cut who the hero is here. It's clear cut who the good guys and bad guys are here. This isn’t controversial. This is a smoking gun,” Whitlock says.

“He’s a rallying point, a hero, a line in the sand. That’s what black people, Black Lives Matter used George Floyd as, ‘This is the example of how America treats black people.’ I think white people are about to say, ‘This is an example of how black people treat white people,’” he adds.

“I don’t think so,” BlazeTV contributor and former Patriots wide receiver TJ Moe argues.

“Nobody believes anything anymore. And that is, I think, what’s going to stop the next George Floyd from happening. Nobody has any idea what’s real. Like what are the actual details? We always wait to see,” he explains.

“George Floyd was different. And I also don’t think it’s very easy. People don’t love to hear this, but just look, 90% of black people vote the same way. Ninety percent of black people, I think, feel like they’re victims. ... It’s very easy to get black people running in the same direction. It’s not easy to get white people running in the same direction,” he continues.

“Fifty percent run the other way the second they hear that the other 50% is going this way,” he says, adding, “So this rallying cry, like you’re going to get all the white people, I don’t see it.”

Jason Whitlock goes wild after Michelle Obama’s ESPN slam — 'She's right!'



You know it’s gotten dire over at ESPN when Michelle Obama compares the analysts to Bravo’s “The Real Housewives” franchise while chatting with two gay men.

On the July 30 episode of her podcast, “IMO,” the former first lady was candid with fellow podcasters Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang about her thoughts regarding ESPN.

“If I listen to ESPN for an hour, it's like watching ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta,’ you know? I mean, you know, it's the same drama, and they're yelling at each other, and they don't get along, you know? I mean, Stephen A. Smith, he's just like every other talk show host,” she said, calling ESPN’s dynamics “sociological drama.”

Jason Whitlock finds the comment hilarious and accurate. It perfectly captures what he’s been saying about ESPN all along: It’s a “feminized clown show.”


“Hats off to Stephen A. Smith and Bob Iger and Ryan Clark and Gilbert Arenas and Shannon Sharpe. You have feminized ESPN to the point that a supermodel first lady, one of the most beautiful women to ever walk in the White House, is talking with her gay friends ... about how you remind them of a bunch of housewives in Atlanta,” he jeers.

“[Michelle Obama] is right. It’s a soap opera at ESPN."

But it’s not just the antics of the hosts on air that make them comparable to Bravo’s bickering, shallow housewives; it’s also the scandals many of them are entangled in.

Whitlock points to Shannon Sharpe’s latest controversy as an example. He had just settled a $50 million lawsuit with 20-year-old OnlyFans model Gabriella Zuniga, who accused him of sexual assault and recording intimate moments without consent, when he was hit with yet another lawsuit — this time a $20 million defamation lawsuit by another woman.

Or take former NBA player Gilbert Arenas, a guest analyst on ESPN's "First Take," who was recently arrested and charged with three federal counts for allegedly running high-stakes illegal poker games out of his California mansion. Following the charges, Arenas live-streamed a video of himself laughing about the experience.

Whitlock plays the clip of his incoherent, expletive-ridden recount, during which he laughs maniacally in front of a social media filter of flames.

“I don't blame [Michelle Obama]. She's actually accurate here. This is a bunch of feminized men who allow Bob Iger to put puppet strings on them and behave and talk in a buffoonish ghetto fashion,” he sighs.

To see the footage of Michelle’s recent comments and Arenas’ bizarre rant and hear more of Whitlock’s analysis and commentary, watch the episode above.

Cincinnati councilwoman suggests mob attack on white victims was justified: ‘They begged for that beatdown!’



Cincinnati Councilwoman Victoria Parks has ignited outrage after posting a comment suggesting the two white victims of the Cincinnati brawl that took place last weekend deserved the brutal beating they received at the hands of a predominantly African American mob.

"They begged for that beatdown! I am grateful for the whole story,” she posted on Facebook.

“In her mind, the whole story justifies the beatdown of the man and the woman,” says BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock, who displays grisly images of the female victim following the attack. One of her eyes is a deep purple color and completely swollen shut, while her lips are puffy and bruised. The rest of her face is a sickly greenish yellow from severe bruising.

Jason calls out the glaring racism – “Black people love to say we can't be racist [because] we have no power.”

“[Parks] is a part of the political structure of Cincinnati. She has some power,” he says, pointing out that America has also had a black president and currently has black mayors and governors all over the country.

“Fearless” contributor Shemeka Michelle agrees, “This council[woman] clearly is putting her race, her skin color, over logic and over good because how does she feel like this woman deserved that?”

The female victim, who’s been identified as Holly, was a bystander who attempted to assist a man being attacked when she was punched in the face and knocked unconscious by one of the men in the mob.

As for the man who was savagely attacked, Shemeka says she “would not be complaining” if the fight were one-on-one.

“If he had gotten a beatdown from only one guy, then hey, you just lost the fight. But when it comes to multiple people stomping you and stomping on your head, I don't think anybody deserves that,” she says.

“I can't understand how anybody is putting [race] over character and integrity, morals, and values. It's just such simplemindedness. But this is where we are, and then we wonder why people are constantly bringing up the IQ of black people,” she adds.

“This is why I talk about racial idolatry so much. ... Part of my mission is trying to open people's minds to: If you interpret the world through a racial lens, it's going to lead you to illogic,” Jason says.

“When I see a city council person who's supposed to be the best and brightest, and she's on the wrong side of this out of her race loyalty, I just shake my head.”
