Hours after ESPN decided to stand up to China on Wednesday by publishing a devastation piece on player abuse at the NBA’s Chinese academies, CNN and Situation Room host Wolf Blitzer brought on NBA commissioner Adam Silver for a 16-minute segment that not only ignored the league’s love affair with the communist, concentration camp-running country, but Silver’s support for Joe Biden.

Along with ESPN (and fellow Disney-owned property ABC), CNN’s sister channel TNT make up the NBA’s two national broadcasters. In other words, perhaps Blitzer was not allowed to pressure Silver on topics such as the ESPN report that alleged, according to one “former league employee,” “the atmosphere when he worked in Xinjiang” was akin “to ‘World War II Germany.’”
