LSU women’s basketball coach Kim Mulkey’s controversial LA Times column, which she accused of being “sexist,” was updated online by the paper early Sunday morning because it “does not meet Times editorial standards.” It was done.
In an article posted before LSU’s March Madness win over UCLA in the Sweet 16 on Saturday, author Ben Bolch said: I have written He called the Lady Tigers “dirty debutantes” and “villains,” while calling the Bruins “milk and cookies” and calling the matchup “good versus evil.”
Borch’s article, updated at 12:55 a.m. ET, with an update notice inserted at 1:10 a.m., says the headline still includes “villain,” but all of those phrases have been removed. It was done.
“The only thing I won’t let you guys do is I’m not going to let you attack young people. And there were some things in this comment that I should be upset about as a woman. It was so sexist, and they I don’t know that,” Mulkey said Saturday.
“Today’s match was Good vs. Evil. Evil? Did you call us Dirty Debutantes? Now pull out your phone and Google Dirty Debutantes And please tell me what it says. Dirty debutante? are you kidding me I’m not going to have kids talking about 18-21 year olds in that tone.
“It was even sexist when this reporter said UCLA was milk and cookies.”
Mulkey said she was informed Sunday morning that her column had been updated, adding that no one from the newspaper had contacted her.
The LSU coach, who led the program to a national championship last year, was already in a public feud with the Washington Post even before it published a profile about her, threatening to sue the paper if it published a “hit piece.” she was threatening. About her.
The Washington Post published an article on Saturday, a week after the threat, that delved into her past relationships with her family and players.
The article said Mulkey clashed with players “over their appearance and expression of sexuality,” while her lawyer said in the article that she would treat gay players “more harshly or differently.” He said it was not handled.
