As far back as I can recall Marriotti was the first one around here to get such derision like we see today with JDC. She can't even sniff his ass as far as ability nor hatred received.

I checked the date on that episode and not six months after it aired oj was in Brentwood getting busy not stabbing his ex to death.

_________________

i got blocked fairly early on as the case against Kane began to unravel...right around Sedita's 2nd presser regarding the bag. I engaged JDC purely on her reporting style and i flat out told her i didnt think she earned merit regarding how she presented the case to the public via tweets, or updates. her specifically chosen words or phrases. i let her know i knew how lawyers pride themselves on being able to influence a thought or decision based on omission and that that was where her bias showed itself. she demanded audio clips of these update shenanigans and then took snippets of my disagreements and manually RT them to make me look like a fool who cant piece a thought together. i never insulted her personally. i just called into question her integrity and alluded to areas where her influence was biased. she couldnt handle that and blocked me. she doesnt care about fair. i'd be surprised if she even really gave a shit about Hayley Pandolfi or any other victim. She's about making her own fame now.

'Your AT&T Universal Card has arrived'? Oh God, Kick-fucking-ass, I got a Master Card! I don't believe it, man. Life is kinda cool sometimes.

My take on JDC is as follows:

-For the first time in her life she's captured an audience of people. Before Twitter there was no one who would listen to her say that she was having a good hair day, or no one to complain about Metra to. The fact that she gets responses to her tweets from people genuinely makes her feel good.

-This feeling of generating positive responses has led her down the SJW path. Her and her army of feminist friends join in on Twitter and never stop tweeting until they create awareness of the cause of the day (that's forgotten tomorrow) by using hash tags that they think will actually solve major socio-economic issues. As they pat each other on the back about being on the "right side of history" they are oblivious to the fact that nothing has or will change as a result of their efforts.

-JDC realized once she started to get attention for the Kane story that she has to go all in on the SJW front. The positive responses from her feminist army assured her that what she is fighting for is the right thing to do. If you ask her, she legitimately thinks her thoughts, be it in columns on a site no one reads or on Twitter, actually sway opinions.

-Today's video was just another step in building her SJW brand. She got the attention she wanted from it, and she's praying that a bigger writing job or a radio show will come her way as a result of this. Ironically she was allowed this platform all because her current co-worker was so over the top sexist to a female anchor at CSN that it forced the Score to realize they needed to hire a woman fast. Right place, right time for JDC.

Bottom line: JDC is a capitalist and all of her actions taken since the Kane case have been based around trying to land a better paying job. Once you see it from this lens, none of her tweets or commentary are remotely interesting or note-worthy. Every now and again I do get a kick out of how important some people on this board seem to make her out to be. Hearing her try to sound like an investigative journalist during the Garrett Ross saga was laughable, particularly when 2 days later all the hysteria and drama around it was over (unless your name is Dan Bernstein or JDC, in which case it's somehow a systematic failure on the Blackhawks part).

How the fuck long did you spend writing this drivel? Do you think anyone reads shit this long? CLIFF NOTES!

_________________

tl;dr She's nothing more than a capitalist who thinks what she's doing is net positive in the world. When painted in that light, none of her actions are interesting or surprising.

Thanks, thats better.

You're really missing the point here. When people point this out it's not as a justification for the atrocious behavior of those who would wish rape on Julie DiCaro. Rather, it is simply intended to illustrate that these types of "attacks" are not exclusive to women the way DiCaro, Spain, and many others are suggesting they are. Of course, the specific insults and threats hurled at them are often tailored toward them as women, because that's what the scumbag doing the typing feels will hurt them the most. In the case of Stephen A. Smith or Jason Whitlock, they get called the n word. That isn't something likely to be directed at Julie DiCaro. Smith isn't likely to be called "fat". However, like DiCaro, Whitlock undoubtedly has been. (Whether such an epithet is more hurtful when directed toward a woman in our society is a much deeper discussion). I'm not likely to be threatened with rape or called the n word, but I have been called a "Tom Skilling-looking motherfucker". Believe me, it didn't feel good.

There's a distinction to be made between abusing someone because she is a woman and tailoring the abuse based upon her being a woman. For example, I would suggest most people who hate Stephen A. don't hate him because he's black, even though some of them most certainly direct anti-black slurs at him. And I realize this distinction is of little consolation to the receiver of such invective.

A good case could be made that the very fact these women are being insulted in this manner is actual evidence of them being treated equally. This type of thing comes with the territory. What would really be sexist would be to treat them differently from the male sports personalities people hate. Again, I'm not defending those being rude and nasty on social media.

On a larger scale, it's only relatively recently that women have come into many traditionally male bastions, specifically the world of professional sports. I think most of us would agree that isn't a bad thing. But men and women interact in different ways. For example, I like you and I think the feeling is mutual. However, we're not going to express such by saying, "Hey BRick, I like you." "I like you too, JORR." We're going to be rough with each other in a way that is not understood or appreciated by the majority of women. Simply because women have been accepted into spaces that have been (and sometimes continue to be) dominated by men, I don't believe it is solely incumbent upon men to change every aspect of their behavior to accommodate the women. Instead, I would suggest that there has to be compromises on both sides. It's not too much to ask women to understand male communication styles at the same time as we eliminate Long Dong Silver jokes in the workplace.

you know what's really sad, is that the only woman i can think of as a media personality that has never once acted like a victim, is ann coulter. instead of cowering and weeping over the criticism (i mean, abuse!) she takes, she seems to wear it like a badge of honor. i think she's full of shit for the most part and whatever part of her schtick is genuine makes her an even worse person, at least she doesn't try to have it both ways. she accepts being a bitch, being confrontational, and all the shit she spews, she takes the fallout pretty well.

I'm actually starting to think Jules is on to bigger and better things. She will be the SJW version of Skip or Stephen A. and get on some talk show where she screams at someone every day.

_________________

Well, I don't think anyone thinks they are exclusive. It still doesn't change the fact that the people who are getting attacked don't deserve to be treated like that. It's interesting to compare it to clear racism. If you feel that is a valid comparison then wouldn't this be misogyny?

There really seem to be two defenses here in regards to how she is treated.
1) Others get treated like garbage too.
2) She deserves it because of how she acts.

It pretty much jumps between those two things.

The major point here is that with either of those, she is right to consider herself attacked and a victim. Then, people get mad at her for getting mad about getting attacked. I'll use my go to example. Our good friend badrogue, upon the hiring of Julie DiCaro, immediately started tweeting at about "leaving the money on the dresser" like she was a prostitute because she was a woman going to work in the same vicinity as Dan Bernstein who had just recently said "Boobs". He probably had no idea who Julie DiCaro was prior to her being hired. Yet, almost immediately, he went to an attack that would get any woman pretty riled up. This was before the Kane stuff. This was before we even knew how good she was at her job. This was before we knew she was a "professional victim". Now, the same guy I just described tweets her pretty much every day and there is a thread on a message board complaining about her every day. Can we really blame her for feeling like she is attacked and treated unfairly? She is by a considerable margin the most vilified member of the Score since she was hired. I know we can claim that people hate Bernstein, or people say things about Spiegel, or people make fun of Laurence but Julie Dicaro dominates the discussion this board and has for a long time.

My basic point is that you shouldn't be surprised when someone feels attacked when she is constantly attacked, and saying that others get called racial slurs really doesn't change that fact.

That is pretty true. Good catch on Ann.

_________________
Elections have consequences.

and here is the TRUE reason why Julie does what she does. She is not trying to help others....she is not trying to call attention to a real issue...Julie is TRYING TO FURTHER HER CAREER!!! This is what it's all about for her!

From her Instagram:

juliedicaro....When your little video project goes viral & takes down Kelly Ripa & Skip Bayless on trending topics!

Do you think Mitch wished she spent more time learning to read and write or more time playing a victim of vitriol that she creates herself?

I'm sure there are countless people who will disagree with me here, but I don't consider the use of racial slurs racism. They may or may not be evidence of racism, but in and of themselves they're not racism. I think a big societal problem is that many people feel that simply not using such slurs has eliminated racism. It's as if we splashed perfume on the problem instead of giving it the shower that is required.

And I would say the same thing about misogyny. Some of the asswipes wishing rape on Julie or desiring that she be whacked in the face with a hockey stick may legitimately hate women. But I would suggest that the majority of them simply hate her and are selecting words they feel will damage her the most. And it's obviously working.

Another example. Many people on this site have said nasty things to IMU. What they aren't going to do is call him "fat". Because that won't hurt him. He'll just laugh. In the same way, threatening to rape me or calling me the n-word would just make me shrug. But calling me Tom Skilling hurt. I don't believe the guy who said it hates old bald guys or weathermen. He was just trying to fuck with me. And I admit it worked.

So why is the "she deserves it" second option a valid reason to hate her. That would be based on her actions not her sex. Your first story about Rouge is not really valid. That was ALL due to Bernstein. Because Bernsie is a fucking tool that can't control his mouth nor his hidden love to denigrate women they kicked Kerry Sayers to the curb and hired Julie. So vitriol originally about her was pretty tame and was directed at her being a token to make Bernsie behave.

It was never terribly bad or did it spiral to where it is today until Bernsie sold her ass out. Kane story popped and he brought her on the show as a "lawyer" and a "rape expert". She is neither of those and it simply is not her job. Both of them used the tactics to make everyone know Kane was guilty when over time it was a unraveling joke of a case. She double down every chance she got.

Now she is getting what she deserves in the eyes of some. She wanted to be bigger than what she was. She picked a bad case to do that with. Weird guys get all over her and here we are. She deserves what she gets online that is not a real physical threat or assault. She constructed her fort on a bad foundation on the internet. She shouldn't be surprised she has to defend it. Any other person regardless of race, sex or anything else you want to throw in to cloud things would have to do the same.

Here is how I look at it. I know plenty of people who are wrong at times. Some are bad at their jobs. Would I be happy if they were be treated that way when they were wrong? With a large portion of the DiCaro stuff I would not be.

Valid criticism of her job performance or even her reporting of the Kane story is great. Go all in on that. Just don't make mean spirited attacks designed to attack a woman or act like it is no big deal that others are doing it.

But, to go one step further, if the person I knew personally was having so much hatred sent her way I wouldn't be shocked when she thinks that she is being attacked by a bunch of people and I certainly wouldn't get mad at her about it.

This is all too big for me to grasp really Rick but this is exactly my point. She should not be shocked at all. She planted her flag on a wrong premise and either to be controversial, a difference maker or simply a troll she has run with it. People can argue all day about the content of the people going at her but there is definitely one thing she should not be about the backlash, surprised.

She wants to believe she is being "attacked" due to the mere fact of her womanhood rather than because of the things she says. If that's true, why wasn't Kerry Sayers treated the same way?

I dont care for how much of the board's time is spent on Julie.

I just could not care less about her. I enjoy your guys posts but you might as well be posting about soccer or coin collecting.

Back to the Julie debate....

The video was also a topic on Mike and Mike this morning. Golic actually called the people writing the tweets scum losers, which defeats the purpose - no?

Julie is growing exponentially both literally and figuratively. The way ESPN is bleeding talent, she will be given a show in no time.
