Racist Sunny Hostin: Caitlin Clark Is Only Popular Because She Is White And Not A Lesbian

The View Co-Host Sunny Hostin Flexes Her Racist Muscle By Claiming College Basketball Star Caitlin Clark Is Only Popular Because She Is White And Not A Lesbian — Dave Portnoy has branded Sunny Hostin a 'racist' after The View co-host controversially claimed Caitlin Clark is only popular because of 'white privilege'. On Wednesday's edition of the ABC talk show, Hostin divided opinion by discussing the 'privileges' that Clark - who broke numerous records in her historic college basketball career with Iowa - has enjoyed amid her staggering rise to fame. 'I do think that there is a thing called pretty privilege,' the lawyer and journalist said. 'There is a thing called White privilege. There is a thing called tall privilege, and we have to acknowledge that.'

'And so part of it is about race because if you think about the Brittney Griners of the world, why did she have to go to play in Russia? Because they wouldn't pay her,' she said of the WNBA. Hostin's take on the Indiana Fever rookie has sparked controversy, with Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy taking issue with her comments this week.
