Ravens Coach John Harbaugh Delivers Masterclass In Dealing With MSM Journalist

Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh delivered an epic masterclass, taking the high ground in response to a loaded bullsh*t question from a MSM reporter, skillfully avoiding the trap. 

During Harbaugh’s press conference at Ravens training camp on Wednesday, a reporter asked the elite NFL coach:

“In the past, Donald Trump has said denigrating things about Baltimore, including, ‘No human beings would want to live there.’ Umm, as a prominent representative of Baltimore…” 

Harbaugh jumped into action, stopping the reporter in his tracks, and responded:

“Why would you frame the question – I would’ve framed that question like, ‘You got a chance to go visit with the president, man. What was that experience like?’

“It was amazing. It was awesome. And I promise you, I root for our president. I want our president to be successful just like I want my quarterback to be successful and I want my team to be successful.

“It was an amazing experience. It’s not often you get invited to do something like that as a family. We were there, my daughter was there, Jim’s daughters were there. My mom and dad were there. My mom and President Trump – just seeing how he treated her was really meaningful. That’s the fourth president [I’ve met]. Jim has met seven presidents so he’s got the lead on me. …

“I had the chance to meet President Obama twice. Incredible experience. Had a chance to meet President Biden, when he was vice president, in Iraq. I spent a lot of time with him in Iraq, which was amazing.” 

John Harbaugh was asked by a reporter about visiting Donald Trump in the White House, given some of the president’s “denigrating” comments about Baltimore in the past.

Here’s the masterclass… 

Left wing sports media member rips John Harbaugh for meeting with President Trump. Harbaugh isn’t having it, schools the media member. Well. Done. Athletes and coaches are over being bullied by left wing media losers. Love this: pic.twitter.com/4OrG1qcd7D

Athletes and coaches should take notice of how Harbaugh skillfully navigated an attempted MSM ambush by a left-wing reporter.

As for Trump’s comments about Baltimore from years ago … he’s not wrong. The struggling city is the result of over half a century of corrupt Democratic leadership, transforming the metro area from one of the nation’s leading manufacturing hubs into a crime-infested wasteland that businesses and residents have been fleeing for years. The population in the metro area has since crashed to a 100-year low.
