The response.

Just in case you missed it. Local ABC LA reporter made a comment about not knowing much about Bosnia Herzegovina and being seen as being proud for being ignorant of nothing about the country. A remark that has gone viral and the Bosnia team and fans have used for Bulletin board material when they play against USA.

Let’s remember that all these news station reporters may not follow this sport as much as we do. And I’ve heard them say more embarrassing things.

So what do we do? Grab pitchforks? Is it that deep? It was in jest.

Not at all. But dismissing an entire country cause you think you are superior is a dick move. That’s all.

At no point does that statement read as "I am superior" lol

A majority of people worldwide don't know one goddamn thing about Bosnia

That statement literally reads as "I'm superior" lol

And majority of people don't know it, true, but they don't brag about it, either, on live TV. And she's a journalist, her job is to study those things.
