Bomani Jones Discuss Bob Costas And Matt Lauer's Cultural Arrogance

[jadillac]

Yeah, it was bad.

I noticed too when they were like, "Another African country"....I'd rather just read captions of Wikipedia facts on the screen instead of needing commentary

[teacher]

[Lucky_Lefty]

he may be right but

 

[Joey24]

Out of all the clowns on ESPN Bomani is respectable

 

[AkaDemiK]

and that's why I hate Bob Costas

 

[NYC Rebel]

he isnt wrong

the NBC coverage was a disgrace

My facebook status that day:

"If you want to know the ills or shortcomings of any third world country this evening, listen to Bob Costas' telecast of the Olympics Opening Ceremony."

 

[Food Mane]

Does he mean "cultural ignorance?"

 

[NYC Rebel]

Does he mean "cultural ignorance?"

That would denote them being uneducated on those differences. Fact is, Lauer and Costas didn't care. So it bordered on arrogance.

You would think someone like Costas who's got such false rigtheous indignation generally speaking would have been a bit more respectful..
