Jordan, Barack Obama condemn LA Clippers owner Racist talk

*, Players Protest On Court

BARACK Obama and former basketball star Michael Jordan have added their voices to the growing condemnation of LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling, who was allegedly taped making racist comments.

According to the Mail Online the US president told a press conference in Malaysia: “When ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don’t really have to do anything, you just let them talk. That’s what happened here.”
Basketball legend Jordan, meanwhile, said he was “disgusted” by Sterlings “sickening and offensive views” outburst.
In the recording from April 9, Sterling is heard questioning his girlfriend, V Stiviano’s association with minorities, and expresses his upset over a photo she posted with Magic Johnson on Instagram.
“It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you are associating with black people. Do you have to?” Sterling allegedly said.
