she's controversial, maybe she shouldn't have done this instead, she's muhammad ali, she's bold, amazing. >> when you compare to johnsident, all the headlines, most of them were negative against the ninth ranked tennis player in the world representing our country. i'm with you on why there's difference in treatment, i do think knowing and interviewing the team how close knit they are and if they win and get invited i have a feeling none of them will show up. they have a lot of people that belong to lgbtq community and may ban together. >> it's very telling as you mentioned tennis player who supported president trump gets criticism and when she does this, people can support her or not support her but i would like to see balance in the coverage, great to see you. nice to end with a sports segment and that is it for this edition of media buzz, i'm howard kurtz, check out podcast, you can subscribe itunes, google play. original videos posted every day along with daily column and on twitter, good discussion about the media coverage at howard kurtz, interacting with some of you on social media form, back next sunday morni
