Gayle King Angry At CBS Over Lisa Leslie Interview Clip
CBS’ Gayle King wants to set the record straight about her interview with WNBA star Lisa Leslie. In a clip of the interview, King asks about if Leslie thinks Bryant’s legacy is “complicated” by the 2003 sexual assault charge. After receiving backlash, King made a statement on her Twitter account.
"I know that if I had only seen the clip that you saw, I would be extremely angry with me too. I am mortified. I'm embarrassed and I am very angry," she said. "Unbeknownst to me my network put up a clip from a very wide-ranging interview, totally taken out of context and when you see it that way it's very jarring."
