Controversial journalist labels Shannon Sharpe, Colin Kaepernick ‘frauds’ amid outrage over Kyrie Irving 

Jason Whitlock is calling out former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick once again. This time, it's regarding the Kyrie Irving anti-Semitism controversy.

The controversial journalist, who had shows on Fox Sports and conservative media outlet The Blaze, has never been shy about his opinions. Especially on athletes he disagrees with politically.

That usually means Kaepernick, among others. Since Kaepernick became the face of the NFL's (and the overarching sports world's) anthem protests over police brutality, Whitlock has not shied away from slandering him.

Whitlock sent out a tweet amidst the Irving anti-Semitism scandal, calling out the former quarterback and many others in the sports world. He said:

"All the bought-and-paid-for N**** revolutionaries denouncing Kyrie Irving would hate Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali. They're all frauds. Shannon Sharpe, Stephen A, Jemele Hill, Maria Taylor, LeBron, Kap, Charlamagne, all of them... Frauds."

The journalist did not mince words when calling out Kaepernick, another Fox Sports employee, Shannon Sharpe, LeBron James and many others.

Whitlock has come to the aid of the embattled guard, while most of the sports world have condemned him for anti-Semitism, including his own team.

Why is Nike dropping Kyrie Irving?

Following the anti-Semitism controversy, the Brooklyn Nets guard found himself in hot water with nearly everyone. That included the Nets and Nike, the apparel brand he was partnered with.

They released a statement, according to Reuters:

"At Nike, we believe there is no place for hate speech and we condemn any form of antisemitism. To that end, we've made the decision to suspend our relationship with Kyrie Irving effective immediately and will no longer launch the Kyrie 8. We are deeply saddened and disappointed by the situation and its impact on everyone."

They have officially suspended their relationship with the guard, though that doesn't mean the two are irrevocably split.

The basketball star has since apologized for his transgressions, saying:

"I want to clarify any confusion on where I stand fighting against anti-Semitism by apologizing for posting the documentary without context and a factual explanation outlining the specific beliefs in the documentary I agreed with and disagreed with."

He remains suspended by the Nets.
