AceShowbiz - Olivia Munn was not happy with the media when her name was dragged through the mud following Green Bay Packers' losing streak. The actress who is dating quarterback Aaron Rodgers called out the media for running story that blamed her relationship with the athlete for his struggles on the field.
She wrote, "Dear, @WashingtonPost @FoxSports and the other news outlets that followed suit. The internet, and especially comment sections, allows people the freedom of anonymity. And there's that small group of people who use it as an opportunity to spew whatever hatred they want without fearing accountability or repercussions. But, that doesn't mean news organizations - the ones that were build by the trust of the public - should give these people's vitriol validity and deem them 'fans.' "
"The 'fan' you based entire articles around is a bigot and a racist," the former "Daily Show" correspondent continued. "Of course he hates me. He also hates black people and Muslims. That's like asking the KKK to give a review of 'Straight Outta Compton.' "

Your professional skills are lacking... you must be having personal problems at home." She added, "The trolls can have their comments, it's not them I'm calling out, it's the journalists. Thanks for the love though @AveryChamp."
