Fire Nancy Armour. USA Today just race-sermoned Caitlin Clark.

Her name is Nancy Armour. She uses her position at USA TODAY to push dangerous lies that erase women. She calls men "girls," attacks organizations that protect female athletes, and calls biology "bad science." This isn't journalism. It's a crusade against women.

USA TODAY must FIRE Nancy Armour.

A message from Paula Scanlan · Family Brief

Her name is Nancy Armour. She uses her position at USA TODAY to push dangerous lies that erase women.

This week she did it again. She called Caitlin Clark's anger over no-calls "flopping," then blamed Clark's fans — a "white nationalist element" — for putting Black and queer WNBA players "at risk." Fouls became a race sermon. That is not sports writing. That is a political hit.

When I was forced to undress next to a 6'4" man in my own locker room, I was told to be quiet. They wanted me to believe I was up against a nameless, faceless ideology.

They were wrong. The war on women has names and bylines. Armour has been one of them for years:

She called a biological male competing against girls a "girl in harm's way." She attacked the LPGA for protecting women — "bad faith" and "worse science." She attacked the Olympics for keeping men out of the women's category — "transgender people not welcome." She attacked my own university for correcting the Lia Thomas record — claiming it puts "all women at risk."

Add your name. Make it toxic for USA Today to keep employing her.

Sign the petition — FIRE Nancy Armour

This isn't journalism. It's a crusade against women.

USA TODAY must FIRE Nancy Armour.

We're refreshing this fight right now — advertisers, executives, subscribers — until they cut her loose. I can't take on a media giant alone. I need you with me.

Your emergency contribution of $35, $50, or $100 funds the petition and ad buys that make employing her too expensive to ignore.

If you come for our daughters, we will come for your job.
