Or ragebait WNBA news gets more clicks so the majority of the news we see about the league is ragebait.

I would say that this is definitely like 90% of it. This really is an exceedingly obnoxious video, but I do feel like the amount of pearl clutching here is crazy considering like all the men sports league where some of the players are straight up abusive, drunk drivers, etc.

If there's more exciting stuff to watch in games, the league needs to do a better job of getting that around social media and drown out the rage bait stuff.

They need to clean up their act then. Ragebait is not going to put asses in seats and sell merch.

It does when your team is incredibly popular and your fans will defend you to the end, wnba has no such thing right now. They only need positive PR.
