An excellent report from the American media. Shame on Australian Mainstream Media who prefer to tow the government/corporate narrative...
Meanwhile Aussie Nick Kyrgios has thrown his support behind Djokovic, saying the way he has been treated during this process is inhumane.
“For the sport, we need him here … I just want it to end,” Kyrgios told reporters on Saturday. “I’m feeling for him now, it’s not really humane what’s going on.
“If he’s allowed to play the Australian Open, I don’t want any bar of him. I reckon he’s going to be p***ed off.
“He’s going to be very determined to play well and stick it to everyone of what’s going on. And I don’t want any bar of that Novak.
“I feel he’s helped us as well. Like during the bushfires, he was supportive, he was helping us out.
“We are so quick to forget … or the media is so quick to forget or so quick to jump on things like this and forget he’s actually helped us.
“I don’t forget that. I just feel … like I could use this as a publicity stunt. I could just agree with the general person and say, ‘Yeah, this isn’t good’ and use it. But I don’t think that’s right. That’s why I’m using my platform now to say we’ve got to do better, we have to do better.”
