Craig Carton: 'Crazy people' hate Sydney Sweeney, support Lindsay Clancy

OutKick host Craig Carton addressed the difference between those who were fine with Sydney Sweeney showing some skin in a sports advertisement and those who supported Lindsay Clancy during her trial in the killings of her three children.

Carton, who hosts "The Craig Carton Show" on OutKick, put it bluntly when addressing the so-called Sweeney controversy over her ad for Novig.

"The world’s going crazy when it comes to the photographs of Sydney Sweeney. ‘Oh, we’re sexualizing women. It’s not right. It’s setting the women’s movement back 100 years.’ No, you’re just ugly. That’s what that is."

Female athletes and some in the media wagged their finger at Sweeney and Novig over the ad, which showed the actress nearly nude talking about all of the sports users could wager on with the company.

Carton asserted that the same ones who were upset about the Sweeney spot also thought Clancy was a "hero."

"I’m gonna separate people into two groups, OK? There’s going to be here on the left side, crazy people. We’re gonna call you ‘crazy.’ On the other side, I’m just gonna refer to you as not crazy," he said.

"Consider for a moment that the non-crazy side loves those pictures of Sydney Sweeney. The crazy side would rather support, I don’t know, Lindsay Clancy. She’s a hero to the crazy side. I saw one of those gals come out this morning legitimately refer to her as heroic. She killed her three children. She killed her own children. But for the crazies, ‘Man, she gets it. She represents us.’ For the non-crazies, she belongs in prison for the rest of her life.

"Crazy people hate Sydney Sweeney. Crazy people love Clancy. Non-crazy people love Sydney Sweeney. Non-crazy people think Clancy should be behind bars for the rest of her life."

Earlier this month, the jury in the Clancy trial was deadlocked with one juror holding out on a not guilty determination. Massachusetts Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial as the jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict in the case.

Clancy had been charged with first-degree murder in the January 2023 deaths of her children, each of whom had been strangled with exercise bands.

Sweeney only riled up some people with an advertisement.
