Noel Plum | Swiss Court DISMISSES Caster Semenya's Appeal: Analysis and Discussion @noelplum99 | Uploaded 4 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
Hi everyone, apologies for my generally reduced output recently. However, here i am, still apparently alive.
The Swiss Supreme Court recently rejected the case of Ms Caster Semenya in her appeal against the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
In this video, I discuss the verdict, give a primer on the Caster Semenya case and why it is important, and lastly give a fairly robust criticism of both the media and (as I propose here) the cynical way Ms Semenya herself have created and co-opted a miasma of public misinformation and to create a groundswell of support for her position, based on fundamental longstanding misunderstandings.
The press are STILL doing this.
It is utterly disgraceful (imo).
