Jets Owner Woody Johnson Being Confused By The High Number Of Black People At A Black History Month Event And Going To A Club Called ‘Whites’ Is An All-Time Bad Look

TMZ Sports – NY Jets owner Woody Johnson — who’s also the U.S. ambassador to the U.K. — was investigated by the State Dept. over alleged racist and sexist comments to his staff, according to CNN.

The sexism and degradation isn’t the most shocking thing from a wealthy old white and powerful guy. It’s the type of situation that happens all of the time and there’s no room for it. But to do that and go to a “men’s only” club that bars women and is called “White’s” feels a little too on the nose. Like I’m sure it’s not some club where they all sit around and devise new — or, based on how outdated the rest of this is, decades tried and true — ways to be racist and sexist. But that is peak bad optics for someone who clearly hasn’t shown the most racial sensitivity in the past. Internet users have drummed up conspiracy theories based around business establishments with far less.

Either way, we’ll see how this ends up with Woody Johnson. Jerry Richardson was forced out of the Panthers with his statue outside the stadium taken down so there’s a recent comparison to consider. Either way, it’ll be quite the tale for the fellas over at White’s.
