CNN’s Brianna Keilar fired back at Simone Biles critics on the network’s “New Day” program, suggesting that “white male talking heads” cannot and should not have an opinion about gymnast Simone Biles, who dropped out of the Tokyo Olympics earlier this week.
Although Keilar did not call her targets “white male talking heads” directly, the CNN chyron for her monologue noted, specifically that. “White male talking heads question courage of Simone Biles.” She also listed off a number of Twitter users who suggested that Biles should not be celebrated for giving “mental health” as the reason for abruptly pulling out of the women’s gymnastics team event on Tuesday and the women’s all-around event on Thursday.
