Charles Barkley, a washed-up basketball star who loves to say inappropriate things for shock value, believes it is all well and good to threaten to punch a woman reporter as long as it’s a “joke.” On Tuesday night, Axios reporter Alexi McCammond tweeted that in an interview, Barkley told her, “I don’t hit women but if I did I would hit you,” after she questioned him on his love for Deval Patrick.
since the late ‘90s, how much is an apology worth? More importantly, how will he be punished? If history is any indication, he likely won’t be—Barkley and his off-color comments are a cash cow for the networks that broadcast every word he says. Every time Charles Barkley says some wild shit or wears an ugly tie, a producer gets his wings.
McCammond, who is a political reporter and shouldn’t be bothered with having to explain herself in this situation, took a moment in the midst of her own kerfuffle to remind everyone of the fact that “ . 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experience severe intimate partner physical violence.” So maybe it’s Charles Barkley who doesn’t understand how jokes actually work.
