Right-wing political commentator Megyn Kelly has an issue with Caitlin Clark. On Sunday, August 2, Clark was asked to weigh in on the growing debate over transgender athletes competing in women's sports after her teammate Sophie Cunningham said she opposed it. While speaking with the media, Clark gave a brief, PG response that appeared to sidestep the debate altogether. Kelly wasn't buying it, blasting Clark's response as "cowardly" on both her podcast and social media.
On "The Megyn Kelly Show," the former Fox News anchor unleashed on some of the women in the WNBA, many of whom have come out in support of transgender athletes and spoke about the importance of inclusivity in sports.
"These women's coaches are absolute effing cowards, and we have taken one step forward, two steps back when it comes to this issue. I am sick of people who don't know anything about this spewing their ignorance all over the internet, whether it's verbally or through their dumb T-shirts or the attacks on the Sophie Cunningham who simply spoke truth about how it's not fair to allow men to compete in women's sports," Kelly said.
Kelly went on to say that she was surprised that the topic of transgender athletes competing in women's sports was still a pressing topic, adding that she believed people had moved on from this conversation several years ago.
She then turned her attention to Clark and blasted the Indiana Fever star for her PG answer on the topic. "I'm sorry, Caitlin Clark was directly asked to speak on it, and she was cowardly! She refused to do it," said Kelly.
