This whole thing with Malika is undeserved in my opinion.
She's a NBA host/reporter, the majority of this sport are Black men. She only reports on Basketball.
She barely even gives any type of opinion. She introduces at topic, gives details and passed it off to the analysts.

This another reporter reporting that Malika Andrews has inserted her opinions on other stories she reported on.

"But while Andrews dug into that story with her opinions, she is being accused of (as of this writing) not doing the same thing with the controversial situation involving Oklahoma City Thunder player Josh Giddey, the Australian standout who is the subject of an NBA looking into allegations of Giddey having a relationship with a minor."

I watched the NBA draft. I didn't see her inserting her opinions at all in the Brandon Miller segment. I thought she just reported on the shooting incident. If you can provide a clip showing otherwise please do.

There are a lot of people in this thread pontificating on what reporters can and can't say and that they're mindless puppets that just tote the company line.
I've worked in TV for almost 20 years and for the most part, you are incorrect.
These posters are caping for her and it's not about "hatred for black women." WTH with that agenda?
Ppl have had the same smoke for sports personalities like SAS and Michelle Beadle.

While lower-level reporters and journalists may stay with the company line as they work their way up,
figures like Malika, SAS, Acho, Rachel Nichols, Skip, etc. have a lot of power when they hit those coveted host seats. They become executive producers/supervising producers of the shows and can veto what stories they want to report on. Sometimes these hosts/reporters will pass stories
they don't want to comment on to their co-hosts or lower correspondents, either because they're too close to it or don't want to fully partake, especially if they think it will affect their brand.
If they do report on it, they become robotlike and just read copy with no additional commentary.

The days of the Ron Burgandy-like hosts mindlessly just doing a reader are gone. We watch these guys for their dumb ass opinions.

I mean she does what company tells her to do. Yall realize that right?

This really isn’t hard to understand. The hatred for black women on this board is pretty disgusting. Especially since it just stems from online bullshyt and nothing that happens in real life.
We don't give Jason Fatlock a pass for his c00nery. We shyt on that fat fukk constantly.

We didn't give Stephen A a pass for any c00n shyt he's said.

Wow. Never heard of this chick. So I have no idea why people are so mad at her.

Could it just be that this situation involves an underage child which opens up ESPN to lawsuits if they report on it in a certain way?

She reported on Giddey again today.
I know most of you don't care because its easier to just believe this woman who chose to cover a sport that is predominately made up of Black men hates us.

Did it to themselves. Like i said if these sports anchors wanna act like Journalists and pride themselves on getting the scoop like tmz.
Then they need to make sure they report on things like this as soon as it happens, If everybody finds out before they do, situations like this can arise.

It took almost a week.
That's a lifetime for a news cycle, especially in the 2023 digital age.

If a news organization is late in reporting hot news stories, its audience will go elsewhere and diminish. And it's not about having an editorial, deep dive, or accusatory discussion on it, just reporting what's out there and it being an ongoing story.

They dropped the ball on this. Hopefully, there's an in depth investigative story on this and things get cleared up.

She's not an investigative reporter.
