Oprah Winfrey reveals that Gayle King has been receiving death threats after a clip of King’s interview with WNBA star Lisa Leslie shows King asking about Kobe Bryant’s 2003 sexual assault case.
Leslie tells King that she thinks the media should be respectful during this time and says it's not something she feels people"should keep hanging over his legacy."
"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."
