Caitlin Clark Off Olympics Roster For Final Four But Dawn Staley On Selection Team, In Final Four?It’s all over that Caitlin Clark was left off the 2024 Olympics Roster of the Women’s National Basketball Team. The reason given was that Clark did not attend the April 3rd-4th training camp in Cleveland. But why? Because she was in the Women’s Final Four. But here’s the problem.South Carolina Head Coach Dawn Staley was also in the Women’s Final Four as the team’s legendary head coach. But Dawn Staley was also on the selection team for the Women’s National Basketball Team. She, of all people, had the chance to defend Clark as a woman who, as the leading scorer in NCAA history, be on the team, and given special consideration because Clark was playing against Dawn Staley’s squad.But, by the outcome, it’s clear that Dawn Staley did not speak up for Caitlin Clark, even though she claimed that Clark was “good for the game”. Was Coach Staley just saying that for the cameras then showing her real view when the doors close?Let me say this: of Caitlin Clark were Black, we as Black folks would be hopping mad at her treatment. Sure, I understand Caitlin Clark ‘s got to pay some dues, but not at the expense of what she’s done. I am convinced there are people who look like me who are intent on burying her.The Women’s National Basketball Team should at least officially name Clark as an alternate. That’s only the right way to go.Stay tuned.

Note from Oakland News Now Blog, Zennie62 YouTube, and Zennie62Media: this Oakland News Online Blog video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. This is what we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a vlogger with the Zennie62 on YouTube Partner Channel, then uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Online Blog site and Zennie62Media -created and owned social media pages. The overall objective is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours. Now, news is reported with a smartphone: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, thus less chance for Oakland News Online Blog, Zennie62 YouTube vloggers to be robbed. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
