He’s a sports journalist and culture critic, who’s probably known best for the work which he’s done for the conservative media company Blaze Media, especially for hosting his own show “Fearless with Jason Whitlock”.

She’s a TV sports show host and former podcast host, who’s probably known best for having hosted the weekly ESPN podcast “Sports? With Katie Nolan”.

Feud between Jason and Katie

The American sports analyst Doug Gottlieb wrote a column on the sports website Outkick, claiming that the journalist Maria Taylor was hired by ESPN to work as their host only because she’s attractive; he claimed that it was her first year of being a journalist, and that although she works very hard, she has no real knowledge of National Basketball Association (NBA). Maria was the first person to respond to this, stating that she was a former basketball player, and thus has a lot of knowledge in the field.

Jason defended Doug by tweeting that Katie was once a bartender, and became a ‘seven-figure personality and Emmy Award-winner’ only because of her beauty; he called her humor pedestrian, and pointed out her inability to execute live television.

Katie responded with a short tweet, and then locked her Twitter account because she knew that numerous people would want to take part in this altercation.
