The Arrington Gavin Show Ep. 655 “FLAT OUT LIE!” STEPHEN A. SMITH FIRES BACK AT NABJ

Stephen A. Smith is firing back — and he’s not holding back. The National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) recently gave Stephen A. Smith its “Thumbs Down” recognition, criticizing what the organization described as a pattern of disparaging commentary toward prominent Black women. Stephen A. strongly rejected that characterization, calling the accusation a “flat out lie.” Tonight on The Arrington Gavin Show, we break down the controversy and ask the bigger questions: Has Stephen A. Smith crossed the line with his criticism of Black women, or is he being unfairly attacked for simply giving his opinions? Is there a difference between criticizing public figures like Kamala Harris and Michelle Obama and disrespecting Black women as a whole? And should Black commentators be expected to approach criticism of Black public figures differently? Plus, we’ll examine whether NABJ’s criticism was justified — or whether the organization may have gone too far. 🔥 EP. 655: “FLAT OUT LIE!” STEPHEN A.
