I agree media should have done more to clarify strikes vs. boycotts (as the LA Times did) but the players were calling it a boycott in nearly all of their statements (the Bucks players statement, LeBron's Instagram post). That's probably because of their collective bargaining agreement that bans strikes. Writers should have pointed out the difference between what was happening and the terminology being used, but I understand why the Times was repeating the terminology the players themselves were using to describe their protests.
