Caitlyn Jenner Wins The Arthur Ashe Courage Award But Gets Heavily Criticised By Peter Berg


Peter Berg's Post
At the ESPYs Awards, Caitlyn Jenner won The Arthur Ashe Courage Awards. ESPYs is an award show by ESPN that recognises excellent achievements in sports. In 2014, Michael Sam, an American football player won the award after opening up to his team mates that he's gay. 

Caitlyn Jenner gave a 10 minutes long speech and got two standing ovation. However, the producer of  'Saturday Night Light', Peter Berg, isn't impressed at all. He criticised Caitlyn's win with a social media post. He's angered by his win as he believes there are far more deserving people than Caitlyn Jenner, like a soldier that lost his legs in a war defending the country.

“One Man traded 2 legs for the freedom of the other to trade 2 balls for 2 boobs. Guess which Man made the cover of Vanity Fair, was praised for his courage by President Obama and is to be honored with the ‘Arthur Ashe Courage Award’ by ESPN?
