Joy Taylor was recently named in a lawsuit accusing her of sleeping with her boss to get ahead at 'Fox Sports.'
Jason Whitlock made his feelings clear about Joy Taylor in response to the Fox Sports lawsuit involving the journalist. In the latest episode of Fearless with Jason Whitlock, the former FS host offered his opinion regarding Noushin Faraji, an ex-hairstylist for the network, and her explosive suit that included Skip Bayless and Taylor. Whitlock admitted that he knew and got along with Faraji when he worked at the network but claimed that he “never revealed himself personally” to her.
“I was a fan of Noushin, thought she was a good person,” he recalled. “Did I think that Noushin and all the women in hair and makeup at Fox Sports needed to be handled carefully? Yes, yes I did. Anybody that knew me and knew my reputation at Fox Sports, it was like, ‘Hey, I’m going to come into this makeup room, I’m going to say very little. Because I’m not going to give any of you leverage over me. I’m not going to make a mistake and allow some woman I know a little bit, but don’t really know, to have leverage over me.”
Jason Whitlock then began discussing Bayless and Taylor’s involvement in Faraji’s suit, remarking that social media was initially focused on the former. However, netizens have shifted their attention to Taylor’s alleged workplace bullying and being intimate with her bosses to get ahead and host Undisputed as a reward.
Whitlock took aim at Taylor, claiming she’s a “symbol of this whole feminist movement” and the “DEI movement.” He pointed to Taylor allegedly sleeping with Fox Sports EVP Charlie Dixon as the “consequences” of “sharing everything with women.”
The Ball State University alum then doubled down on his assertions, proclaiming that Taylor knows she has “very little to offer” to sports journalism outside of her looks and wasn’t “qualified” to be in the room. And with all of this being said, Jason stated that he knew to stay away from Joy Taylor—not because of her, but “because I knew myself. I know what I’m capable of.”
“That’s the real takeaway and that’s the real story from this,” he added. “Joy Taylor is a symbol of this whole feminist movement, this whole Black queens movement, this whole DEI movement. This whole sharing everything with women, and, ‘Hey there’s gotta be a woman host on all of these shows.’ Well, there’s consequences to that, and this whole system has been set up to create the kind of chaos and division and inefficiency and corruption that we’re seeing spelled out in this lawsuit, [and] all across American media.”
“[Joy Taylor] knows that she has very little to offer, so what does she end up offering up?… I basically, for the most part, just kept my distance from Joy Taylor. Not because I didn’t like her, just because I knew myself. I know what I’m capable of. That big rack of hers that she showed off constantly. And that peanut butter skin with that big rack. Like, Jay, keep your distance, that’s going to get you into trouble.”
Jason Whitlock then dove deeper into Taylor’s past, discussing how she went from little radio experience in Miami to playing in the big leagues at Fox Sports. Once again Whitlock pointed to the woman’s “big pair of cans” as the only reason she was able to elevate herself. Whitlock claimed that everyone at Fox knew about Taylor’s alleged affair with Dixon and Taylor’s threat to accuse him of rape was “common” among colleagues at the network. The columnist then used the Joy Taylor suit as a reason to why he would never work for a woman, stating that they’re “too emotional and too thin-skinned for me.”
“Joy Taylor had done some radio work down in Miami, what does she have to offer? How does she get that job? How does she even get that opportunity? She’s got a big pair of cans, and she’s, according to Noushin, willing to let people enjoy those big cans of hers. That’s how we got here. And it’s not Joy Taylor’s fault… I’m trying not to disparage Joy Taylor, but the facts are the facts.”
“I mean I got a lot of discipline, but a 25-year-old with them big cans and that peanut butter skin who has nothing to say, at some point I’m going to lose respect,” he concluded. “I don’t want to put myself in that position.”
