‘Delusional, Dangerous’ — MLK Jr.’s Daughter Demands ESPN Legend Apologize For Manufacturing A’ja Wilson, Caitlin Clark Divide
Martin Luther King Jr. ’s daughter Bernice called out former ESPN anchor Linda Cohn for seemingly manufacturing a divide between A’ja Wilson and Caitlin Clark.
Bernice King, daughter of Martin Luther King Jr., has demanded that former ESPN anchor Linda Cohn apologize for suggesting that A’ja Wilson withdrew from the World Cup to avoid sharing the spotlight with Caitlin Clark. Cohn questioned whether Wilson's absence was due to 'insecurity' rather than health issues, a claim King dismissed as "dangerous" and demanded a retraction.
While Wilson had been dealing with a lingering back issue and played over 30 minutes in several games, Cohn's claims sparked backlash from fans and journalists. Despite Clark's impressive debut, Team USA faced challenges and missed Wilson's interior presence.
