Chapter 1: What incident sparked the WNBA race hoax discussion?
Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Welcome to the Megyn Kelly Show. Another race hoax takes center stage, this time in the WNBA. This story has had many twists and turns over the past week, so we're going to walk you through how it all unraveled in spectacular fashion.
It all started on May 17th during the WNBA season opener when Kaitlyn Clark's team, the Indiana Fever, faced off against the Chicago Sky, home to player Angel Jussie Smollett-Reese.
Just kidding.
Angel Reese was the competitor. During the game, Caitlin Clark received a flagrant foul call against Reese. In other words, Caitlin committed the foul. After slapping her arm, Reese fell to the ground momentarily before jumping up to follow Clark across the court. angry at the foul.
Keep in mind, she's committed umpteen numbers of these against Caitlin Clark, including she was the one who with the fingernails. But she was very angry that she'd been pushed, she felt, by Clark. Clark said there was nothing malicious behind the foul, and it's just a part of the game. Reese appeared to agree, eventually saying, all right, it was just a basketball play.
Then after the game, the Associated Press reported the WNBA was launching an investigation into alleged racial abuse. directed at Reese by fever fans. Fans, you know, rooting for Caitlin Clark. The WNBA confirmed the investigation in a statement that read in part, the WNBA strongly condemns racism, hate, and discrimination in all forms. They have no place in our league or in our society.
We are aware of the allegations and are looking into the matter. Then Reese had a change of heart. She posted a TikTok video, which included this screenshot. It shows Clark walking away from Reese after the foul with the message, white gal running from the fade. It has since been taken down by Reese.
Reese then spoke to reporters about how the alleged racism hurled her way was very hard to deal with during the game.
Obviously there's no place in this league for that. I think the WNBA and our team and our organization have done a great job supporting me. I've had communication from everyone, from so many people across this league and being able to support me. Going through this whole process, obviously it could happen to me, it could happen to anyone and I think they've done a great job supporting us in this.

Chapter 2: How did Angel Reese respond to allegations of racism?
No, but seriously, it's...
Brother Craig, you need to get out of there. You need to go launch your own show, Glenn. Poor Brother Craig. We need a parachute in there to rescue Brother Craig.
I mean, he has to walk on pins and needles because the minute he does anything other than just like sort of say amen in response to everything she says, she gets super hostile.
Yes, yes, she does.
She's always correcting him. Oh, yeah. If he steps out of line, she's like, no. And then she talks over him and she explains why he's so wrong. And then he eventually apologizes. It's a really, like, uncomfortable dynamic. But also, like, what is that? Like, women always get the short end of the stick because of their biology. And I mean, I... What does that even mean?
What, like six or seven years longer than men? Longer than men.
Longer than men. Yeah, it's pretty good. And have for a long time. Yeah, I think that's a pretty good, you know, like mark of positivity on the side of women. And women get to do a lot of things that men don't do.
Women get to carry a baby. Yeah, exactly. To be a mother to a baby and breastfeed. But no, I bet she would frame that as some sort of a negative. Here she is. I'll give you another one. Well, I'll just let you watch it. It's not 17.
There is at least some, you know, again, anecdotal data that says that older sperm, more autism. We should tell some people, like, maybe it's the old sperm. Maybe it's not the vaccine that's causing the autism.

Chapter 3: What did the WNBA investigation reveal about racism claims?
And then it was only once, that's when Cory Booker and Julian Castro brought up in the debate, made fun of Biden because he couldn't remember what he said two seconds ago. They're the ones who spread it. And then once Biden became the last person standing with Bernie Sanders, they all said, this is off limits, this is disgusting.
And Jake Tapper, the thing that I found so offensive about what Jake Tapper said was when Laura Trump said very innocuously, like, I watched Joe Biden, I'm just kind of rooting for him to get the words out. He didn't just tell her she was wrong. He went and he accused her of creating a bullying atmosphere for children with stutters. He was still on that stuttering thing.
You brought that up with him and he said, I called Laura Trump and privately apologized to her. Why didn't he apologize on the air? That's where he accused her of creating a bullying atmosphere for stutterers, for kids with stutterers.
And let's be honest, I'm sorry, but the only reason he called and apologized to her is because he knew he was going on a press tour. I firmly believe that. It just came out. I mean, it was obvious when he said, I called her months ago. Okay, he signed the contract for this book right after the election. So this thing was rushed to press. That would have been November of 2024.
And here we are about six months later. And okay, so when exactly did he call her? Well, we just found out when exactly he called her because Laura Trump went on with Laura Ingraham on Tuesday night listening to SOT6.
Jake Tapper called me about two months ago, actually. And he said, I have this book coming out and I know everybody's saying that I should apologize to you. I plan whenever the book comes out to go on TV and I will say you were right and I was wrong. And I guess to Jake's credit, he did that.
Did he actually call you or was the on air dramatic apology? Was that it? No, he called.
Well, he called me and said that he was going to do this. So then.
Okay, so, but he didn't actually apologize to you in a subsequent phone call. He said he was, like, so convoluted. Yeah, something like that. He said it was kind of odd.
