You can add former Washington Post sports columnist Sally Jenkins to the list of LIBS who are furious that the U.S. men's hockey team won gold in Italy.
Keith Olbermann is on that list.Jemele Hill hated it. Sarah Spain fake liked the win. The list goes on and on. USA Today columnist Christine Brennan, during an interview with PBS, closed out her time in Italy byreminding viewers that the women won more gold medalsthan the men and how it's all due to Title IX. She never mentioned Jack Hughes, whose game-winning goal accomplished something the men's hockey team hadn't done in 46 years.

"What we're seeing in NCAA women's basketball and the WNBA and throughout college sports, we are seeing it here at the Olympic Games, where the U.S. women are the reason that the United States Olympic team is performing so well one Olympics after another," Brennan crowed from Milan.
It was the same thing out of Jenkins, who took to Twitter to beat on that drum.
It was a coordinated attack to diminish what the U.S. men's hockey team accomplished because both of these Big Js absolutely hate President Trump, they hate exceptionalism unless it's from one of their cherished female Olympians and they sure as hell hate straight, white men celebrating a massive sporting event like what happened Sunday morning.
That is why Sally Jenkins has been melting down on Twitter for the last 24 hours arguing with men over the NHL vs. WNBA TV ratings and whatever else she can cook up to piss on the men's accomplishment.
This was the USA Today's front page on Monday morning. Look at the below the fold — old newspaper term — placement of the men's team and not even a headline associated with the victory.
USA Today didn't create an iconic front page to celebrate the men's victory. They have a culture war to fight. The editors wouldn't dare allow the men to celebrate exceptionalism. That goes against everything that Brennan and the woke sports department stands for.
