CBS This Morning co-host Gayle King unloaded on her own network in a video she posted to her social media accounts this morning. At issue was an interview clip CBS teased online on Tuesday, in which King asked former WNBA star Lisa Leslie about Kobe Bryant’s sexual assault case — a line of inquiry Bryant’s fans did not appreciate. King claimed the clip was taken “out of context.”

Kobe and Gianna went to church at the break of dawn the morning of his accident - to pray and receive communion.

Note to media and public: Let the father and his daughter Rest In Peace.

Kirk Douglas (white guy) dies and the trending topic in Twitter is an allegation from liberal feminists that he once raped a 15 year old Natalie Wood.

Kobe Bryant (black guy) dies and no one can bring up an allegation that he assaulted a woman (charges dropped , a.k.a. victim probably paid off) with out censure from liberals.

Welcome to America 2020

“...my network put up a clip from a very wide-ranging interview totally taken out of context...”

Your network does that quite often.

you can't undo what has happened.....I read about the rumors pretty substantial about Kirk Douglas assaulting a young Natalie Wood and it sickened me.....

BUT there's a time to let it all go....hopefully these were singular events and after all, we are only human, we are prone to sin each of us,and hopefully we strive to be better persons for it...

the only ones I hold accountable even in death are those that sin continuously and flaunted it....

King knows TV, having worked in it for years. She is trying to blame CBS for picking a “salacious” clip? Snoop Dogg is threatening her. HE is the problem.

Imagine if *anyone* white called Ms. King a “funky dog-haired bitch”, they’d get the r-word slapped on them so fast, it would make your head spin.

How nice of CBS and the media to dredge up sexual assault charges only after the accused are dead and can’t sue them. If Ms. King didn’t implicitly know that her network would promote the spiciest question to tease the interview, she truly fails to understand the business she’s in.

“I am mortified, I am embarrassed and I am very angry,” King said in the video. “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. It’s jarring to me. I didn’t even know anything about it. I started getting calls: What the hell are you doing? Why did you say this? What is happening?”

Well Gayle, welcome to the Sarah Palin Media Misrepresentation by Out of Context Quotation Club. Maybe you could have Sarah on one of your shows and she could tell you about the two day interview for ABC that got reduced to about 10 minutes mostly of her grinning and appearing to be an imbecile. Or maybe the shade of Joseph McCarthy could be summoned to remind us of how the god like Edward R Murrow made the camera to bare false witness with the original out of context ‘gotcha’ performance.

Zero question: their career would be over. Done.
