She had to hold up her MeToo movement torch like Lady Liberty. Her excuse was...they edited it wrong?? So she knows she was wrong for that and yet she felt happy about the interview and then proceeded to call Lisa Leslie to get her to say she was proud of the interview even though she basically called her out on it.
Tr3yification DL Huguely like most pro blacks will not live where blacks are the majority. Why do you think that is? Probably because he is nothing but a race hustler and you’re falling right for it
An agenda they see a way to tarnish Kobe’s name for a alleged crime he was found innocent of and the gonna rub with it fortunately the public can see right through it
It was to close the dialogue, from what I could tell. To get someone’s perspective on the media uproar of people that are speaking on his name in an ill manner. I don’t know her intentions, but I knew of the situation beforehand. I agree that it should be left alone, but it can’t be left alone without a conversation.
What could Lisa do. If she'd gotten emotional than it's the once again situation black people can't think. I think Gale King is disingenuous and knew exactly what she and her producer was doing! Lisa Leslie was out standing during her ambush!
Am just that Guy she handled it by saying you had a lot of time to ask him I don’t think appropriate wow fact she even had to say that to gayle sucks 🤮🤮
True he never got charged you must the new to this country the media absolutely positively do not care they will go after anyone the living and the dead they went after Michael Jackson Prince Elvis they don't care the media is not your friend how can you be surprised
Is it me or did it seem like Angela Yee was trying to shut Charlemagne up when he started talking about Kobe's accuser? He's right, if we're gonna talk about it, talk about the whole thing.
I have no clue why this is relevant now with so many in mourning. That said, it must’ve been on her heart ❤️to be wondering still all these years later.
Gayle is the epitome of a sellout. She disparaged his legacy when she asked that question. No one believes he forced himself on that women. I’m disgusted with her! 🤢
elmo world its dumb to 100% believe either side of the story since nobody was there, so nobody knows what truly happened besides those two people. in situations like that, i just stay neutral. no ill will towards either party because i dont know which one is telling the truth.
Kicksno1fan Well, lets be clear of the facts. 1) The woman had the DNA of 3 different men in her panties which included pubic hair. The third mans DNA was acquired the morning following this alleged incident. - - What rape victim sleeps with another man hours after being rapped? 🤷🏽♀️ 2) The alleged victim was diagnosed as Schizophrenic and prescribed medicine for her condition prior to the accusation. Delusion is one of the characteristics of this mental disorder. 3) The woman went to Kobe’s room. She sought him out. 4) Case was dismissed and charges dropped. Good old fashioned COMMON SENSE: Kobe didn’t rape her! Unfortunately, she has a mental illness and was a loose woman during her manic cycle. Period. If you know anything about mental illness, you are aware that while in manic mode, many become very sexually active. It’s a part of the manic... Compulsion.
It's kinda like ahy did she wait for him to die to ask the question it puts into question what was the motive from her doing (tbh my first thought is trifling) and
When Lisa talked about Kobe not being that type of person Gail told her “you wouldn’t see it” indicating that Kobe had another side to him. They left that part out. Now Gail is trying to blame the network. What a phony disgrace to her race!
So why didn’t they ask Kobe that? That’s what I don’t understand. If he had another side to him, why was he ever asked about that? Only he can answer for himself but he’s gone
Bianca Culpo Because Oprah/Gayle do this bs, same thing they tried to do to Michael Jackson. Oprah was friends with MJ, but after he died she tried to throw smut on his name, they always do this type of thing.
Lisa is not the man's wife or bff. Why are they asking her questions like she knew him the best and the longest anyway?? Gale and her bad crooked wig need to have several seats along with NOPErah!
It's funny though cause on the R kelly interview she was praised for not beating around the bush and asking direct questions . It just shows how your quality can be your flaw depending on situations
Job is to ask questions. It's an interview. Anyone could say "have respect for the family" regarding just about anything controversial, not just when someone is dead. If we don't want questions that would possibly further hurt a family or person asked, then I think we should just stop giving interviews for public view all together because anyone could get offended about anything asked.
Haks Hustle PERIOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! His body not even in the ground and here she go! So disgusting! I pray his family and loved ones don’t see this mess
I dont think media works by giving out equal shares of publicity. There's a lot of things i could ask "why isn't this as big as that" but i know that's not how it works nor is it what I'm looking for from media. If we want equality for all news or things happening in the world, we might as well shut down all sources of public media.
LOL, stop lying! I read about the Weinstein case every damn day with news alerts going off...It's out there and if you think it's not getting equal play then you must be purposefully ignoring it. Cosby got what he deserved, he's guilty as hell.
I’m going to need both Oprah and Gayle to have that same energy with Harvey Weinstein, who is still alive; that they do with all these dead black man 😒! I’m disgusted!
Most definitely an honor. And from what we know that was one mistake. All these holier than thou people need to quit judging as if they’ve never made one mistake whatever it was, in their own lives. Leslie Jones well respected for that.
It was dismissed he never was charged but he did have sex with that lady along with about other five people don't you care about that oh I forgot it was a long time ago
Kobe Bryant and his daughter don’t even have a funeral date yet and Gayle is attacking his legacy! Wearing Purple & Gold in the interview at that!! 🤦🏾♂️🤬
exactly i dont think vanessa has come to terms that there gone and thats so heartbreaking i just said the other day she is in so much pain cuz she haven't layed them to rest yet
@John Smith Kobe's charges were dropped, so there is no need to go after him at all. The only thing "complicated" about his legacy is his mimicry of Jordan.
Tiffany Rose true but let's face it, those gentlemen didn't fight for Blacks and were more about appeasing mainly Whites. Its sad yes, but lets be honest their actions reflects their commitment to their race which sadly goes by wayside. Sadly in passing only his wife and possibly older daughter is seeing that leopards never change spots.
How in the hell can those question tarnish kobe reputation, I swear to fucking God every time people hear or see kobe with rape they immediately loose there shit without even reading/digesting the statement
religion is fake R Kelly is different from these two men. R. Kelly has multiple sex tapes and dozens of women who say they were underaged when they were with him. Yes he was acquitted, but it’s because the girl in the sex tape said it wasn’t her so that she could live a normal life. Kobe was accused but never charged with anything. Michael Jackson was not only acquitted, but his innocence was PROVED every single time. Everything they ever said that Michael did to them, was proven to be false.
I'm so over this bullshyt. Thank you Lisa. Kobe earned five rings, retired, and went to live his life with family and philanthropy (of which, becoming an international ambassador for women's basketball). Sudden passing, with his prodigy daughter, and now folks want to dismantle his legacy. GTFOH!
You can feel Lisa was uncomfortable with the questions. When she said the media should leave it alone included you Gayle. So sad. That was not the time and place to talk about Kobe. :(
R.I.P Alyssa Altobelli R.I.P John Altobelli R.I.P Keri Altobelli R.I.P Gianna Bryant R.I.P Kobe Bryant R.I.P Payton Chester R.I.P Christina Mauser R.I.P Ara Zobayan 😭😭🙏🙏 Prayers to all of the families that were affected by the crash
@Yeshua Messiah My Adonai My Savior kobe is a person and influenced more than the others. It would just be another helicopter crash of it wasn't for Kobe. R.I.P. Kobe and R.I.P. Gigi..... if you dont like it dont watch but you still watch because its the legend Kobe Bryant. Foh
Defamation of character won’t work this time like it did Tupac . The people are too smart and love Kobe too much to hear some naive and ignorant woman throw shade on a guy who has done more than her in her life time for the people . Stay blessed my people
Let that man Rest In Peace, he has already left this earth so unexpectedly and so tragically. That’s the same for Whitney Houston and MJ.. let them all Rest In Peace and quit bringing up past issues when they can no longer testify.
If she were to have asked another WNBA player from this LGBTQ era they would've smeared him. Lisa always been class act and beautiful sister with standards.
Why in the world would you bring up a dead man’s “accusatory” past? You can’t hurt him. He’s gone. You can only hurt the people that are in mourning him - and she did. This is so distasteful. This man has a family mourning him. Gayle and Oprah have been out of pocket for quite some time.
I think he meant they should of addressed these rape allegations even though he didn’t rape the girl when Kobe Bryant was alive not when he is gone because he can’t defend himself but then again I’m gonna remember Kobe as a legend these woke people can remember him as what they remember him as.
I'm thinking he said that because, the same thing happened to MJ. While MJ and Kobe was alive, no one would touch the subject. Gail had all the time in the world to ask Kobe those questions and she never did. Let the man rest in peace. Somebody needs to interview her and Oprah.
@F**K t-RumP You're an idiot and apparently unable to comprehend court transcriptions. Where in any credible news outlet or court documents did it ever say he was found guilty of rape or sexual assault?
Exactly, no one was & you know how some of these Sport junkies do what they can to get some of these guys. For what reason would he have to rape her when he could certainly buy a Prostitute if wanted sex. This is what destroys the me too movement. Bottom line.....Gayle's timing was terrible. this man's family is grieving and she goes down this road....Shame on you Gayle and you Okra for defending her.
Let’s be honest. Every journalist does this when stars die. I mean they made a documentary on Michael Jackson and the allegations against him after he passed. They do it for ratings because let’s be honest, journalists wouldn’t talk about stuff if they knew people wouldn’t engage the conversation. So as long as the topic is engaged they’re going to continue to discuss things at inappropriate times. Do I think it’s right? Of course not. But I don’t understand sending death threats to Gayle. You can be upset about what she said but wishing death on someone is ridiculous. At the end of the day you can express your opinion in a respectful way and get your point across but as soon as you start cursing and threatening someone, your point is invalidated.
@JohnJacobJingleHeimer Schmidt Schmidt Lack of integrity for who, the rich, the powerful??? How about integrity towards a common woman, who remains nameless, faceless and nonexistent? Integrity is not biased!
Taylor ..interesting and ,,imo very precise post! however , I must pose a question in which isn’t ment to belittle or challenge you, but rather one ,I believe is worth considering!”Do you actually not understand or do you truly find it surprising the fact gayle has earned herself a fare share of death threats and harsh backlash?!?!?!!!!!imj saying n reminding you ,Taylor ,that this is the same land of ppl who sent plenty of death threats to the likes of Tim Bradley!!!lol lmao 😆 I’m only laughing bc that was fueled from the most insignificant and childish (at worst few bucks got lost)matter circulating the land 😌!!!that was ofcourse (for those not familiar and unaware)due to what most perceive as the results of unfair n corrupt judging during a mere boxing match 😏🤦♂️....so again ,I’m simply reminding you ,we live amongst the most extreme violent plagued ignorant n flat out crazy mf’s walking earth!!ofcourse we hope n may even pray gayle won’t become a victim of murder or some type assault but honestly for me ,I still wouldn’t be shocked.
She was interrupting him the entire segment. All to read what was already said. The real convo is what CTG was talking about. He was telling the world everything they needed to know.
Have you see or hear the black men in the industry? They ride for white and latino while bashing black women and other black men, Sell out is not the words. I also never a fan of Gale and Oprah.
THANK YOU! That's the main reason the case was dismissed there were too many evidence against her that she was lying. She was not gonna win that case and if she didnt drop it she was gonna end up in jail for extortion.
The women is the one who didn’t want to testify, she is still alive and can be asked all these allegation if it’s true. This women settled out of court, if she wanted justice she would not have.
Räñdøm Thïńgš TV I’m not aware of the details and I don’t want to go digging into it, I saw his apology and an interview where he said his Priest gave him advise. I’m not a fan but I am sorry a father of 4 and a repented husband that seem to be a good family man now passed. The person who should be saying something is not so why are all this “journalists” attacking him after he’s gone. Also if the woman in question had moved on and put this behind her (and I saw a video she had mental issues) this will not be healthy for her. If she didn’t get the Justice she wanted she should have spoken up or not take the settlement.
She didn’t want to testify because they lied on her and dragged her so damn bad that Colorado had to change their pretrial laws because of it. He did that so she would settle out of court, if he was innocent he would not have 🤷♀️
Räñdøm Thïńgš TV I just saw an old video of him apologizing holding his young wife’s hand + an interview of his in 2016 I think.. being asked about the charges and he said when his priest asked him did he do it he answered absolutely no. He then got the advise to let it go and that God does not give us more than we can suffer and in his apology it’s for how he thot it was consensual maybe the girl didn’t and if so he’s sorry and it was not him knowingly forcing himself on someone. If this is a pattern in the last 20 years there would have been more incidents and if not rumors. I know there was cheating rumors till the wife couldn’t take it in 2012 n filed for divorce. I watched these videos after his death and as this is not something he’s on trial for or is still pending I don’t want to play judge and jury to a dead man. I don’t know the details and his good deeds and contributions to the community shows that he’s been making up for what ever he did and moving forward. To me this is someone who literally the whole world and from all walks of life is sad passed. I have not followed any NBA news in years and was taken aback by the out pouring of condolences and love to him and his family. I just feel this was not appropriate to be asked so soon if at all.
@@bookbag6432 but she was with other dudes after "the rape". I have never heard of a woman having sex right after getting raped. That's why she refused to testify. She also admitted she lied to the cops
Brandon Robinson He was guilty. In exchange for a trial he had his attorney issue a formal apology to the accuser. Then paid at least 2.5 million dollars in civil suit. Innocent people fight to clear their names.
What’s scary to me is one accusation will stick with you for the rest of your life no matter if it’s true or false and no matter how famous you are. That’s what’s scary
Gayle was totally out of line for doing that. The man is deceased. Let him rest and let his family grieve in PEACE, regardless of what you think or feel about him! They are doing the same thing to Kobe Bryant that they did to Michael Jackson. I'm so glad that Snoop Dog called out Gayle and Oprah's hypocrisy on the Harvey Weinstein issue!
@hunni stop I also agree that regardless of how African American men feel about African American women, they need to keep that opinion to themselves. Other ethnic groups put their women on pedestals in the media, regardless of how they feel about them, because that is a power move that presents them as a united front in the eyes of the world.
@@geoffreykidder5694 Nothing has to be asked. However, since Gayle chose to explore this 16 year old settled court case, she will have to deal with all of that heat. Her publicist should advise her to shut up, because Gayle's clumsy explanation only made it worse.
I look forward to Gayle interviewing Oprah and the girls that were abused at her school in Africa. If they truly are about "giving a voice to victims" then highlight those young ladies stories.
Not go happen oprah and gayle belong to white supremacy they just happen to have black faces all black folks are not kinfolks they both needed to be cancelled years ago
@@DMVBLACK of course it was dismissed they never were going to cavicke Kobe Bryant but the media and Gayle King you have to understand they're not there to just report the good things about a person is there something bad he has done in the past doesn't matter how long ago it was if it was 50 years ago they going to report it think about it
@@rashidodoms5452 what's even more fucked up is Oprah says Harvey Weinstein is still her friend, Gayle says she'll always stand by Charlie Rose, two white men even white women are ready to hang. Smdh
And he didn't go too far what he said was the truth and if the truth hurts so be it he's walking the same path she's walking for Fame and Fortune so he can see much better than we can and we seeing damn well
The case was dismissed & Kobe was exonerated of all charges. The prosecution never even took it to trial because the accuser's word was NOT reliable at all, they already knew Bryant would've gotten acquitted & they would've lost. The chick was tested & they found more than several different men's semen inside her vagina. Also, the defense never settled out of court at all... Bean didn't pay that chick any kind of money, not 1 cent. The chick was obviously lying & that's why Vino got off scott free, lets quit trying to tarnish & taint this man's name & legacy. Long Live THE LEGEND: Vino Bean Mr. 81 Kobe Bryant The Black Mamba
To ask one of Kobe's friends this while they're mourning is one thing. But for Gayle to try to explain it away and try the old trick 'Its taken out of context' is just as bad. Maybe even worse.
William Morris they some bitches meanwhile snoop cheat on his wife, half of em don’t even like they own black women hop off dicks. Keep that same energy when anybody say something
She was willing and you can't rape the willing. It's a low blow because no one was bringing it up while he was still here but all of a sudden now that he's gone it's a topic to talk about? Gtfoh with that shit. It's low talking about it when the person isn't here to defend himself!!!!!
That's the disscusion though, should we let people always see him as this legend- or as someone who has done great things but may or may not sexually assaulted a woman. I think we have to be careful going about bringing it up but we all have the right to make up our own mind about something/someone
Exactly, even if u dont care for Kobe have respect for his family who are grieving and for his dead daughter. Couldn't she have brought this up when he was alive?ugh i feel sorry for his wife and kids
Wake up people Elvis is dead the media still goes after him Prince is dead they still talk about him and you know what they do about Michael Jackson the media is not there to be your friend they are the enemy but time after time people will sit down and pour out their most personal stories to the media
