Good Job, Kim Rhodes!

"As the fact check site Snopes points out, her sixth medal was covered by many major U.S. news outlets, including USA Today, the New York Times, CBS Sports, SB Nation, NBC, WGN and the Chicago Tribune. Other outlets like Time, Forbes, Huffington Post and NPR covered Rhodeâs bronze medal and mentioned her pro-Second Amendment values.
Both Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal wrote about the stigma attached to shooting sports but as Five Thirty Eight noted, Americans arenât really excited about the event, and that more than anything is what is responsible for limited sponsorships.
Shooting sports are ranked among the least popular games at the 2016 Rio Olympics. It wasnât even listed in an Adweek survey announcing the â11 Olympic Sports That Viewers Are Most Excited About Watching,â because it didnât make it into the top 11 sports. If fans of the sport were more supportive of their event and encouraged a higher viewership, perhaps Rhode could score some sponsorships and the sport could get more attention."
Anywho, spend some time in the comments, but try not to respond. Avoid trolls, but don't create an echo-chamber for yourself.
