註釋
Bryant T. Jordan examines not only the exact words of Donald Sterling in the infamous TMZ and Deadspin recordings, but those of celebrities such as Shaquille O'Neal and Magic Johnson, as well as the public's reaction to such words, He even explores the NBA's condemnation of such words, the punishment handed down to Sterling, and whether or not such punishment truly fit the crime. Jordan raises important questions such as: Did the media leave out important information that would have painted Sterling in a different light, in favor or creating ratings nirvana? Are politically incorrect words worthy of a far worse punishment than actual criminal actions like assault, rape and even murder? Jordan neither justifies racism nor ignorantly condemns a single individual without first actually examining what that individual said. Simply put, this book is a thought-provoking breath of fresh air and a MUST-READ for sports fans, fans of freedom of speech and just plain free-thinking people everywhere
