Tomi Lahren defends OutKick’s ESPN scoop, torches Jemele Hill, backs Sophie Cunningham
Jemele Hill came after OutKick over our scoop on ESPN host Ryan Clark's departure.
Tomi Lahren answered with a blowtorch.
On Thursday, Lahren appeared on both "Tomi Lahren Is Fearless" and "America Reports." Across the two appearances, she addressed two of the week's biggest sports stories: Jemele Hill's outrage over OutKick's reporting and Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham doubling down Wednesday on her support for protecting women's sports from trans athletes after the WNBA media predictably lost (her) mind.
Lahren started with Cunningham, praising the Fever guard for refusing to retreat from what she called a matter of common sense:
Jemele Hill criticized OutKick after we broke the news of ESPN's latest layoffs before the network publicly announced them. Journalism, we're told, had finally gone too far.

Hill called for OutKick's demise and said she'd need to be rushed to the hospital from laughter alone.
So, Lahren unloaded on Jemele.

OutKick founder Clay Travis summed up Tomi's response: "off the top rope!"
Even Stephen A. Smith has taken positions on women's sports that would've been unthinkable at ESPN just a few years ago.
Hill is still defending a media playbook her former industry keeps throwing away.
Meanwhile, Cunningham isn't backing down. Neither is OutKick.
