LeBron James has some thoughts about Fox News host Laura Ingraham defending Drew Brees over his “disrespecting the flag” comments.
Two years ago Ingraham infamously bashed LeBron for making political comments in public during a segment of her show “The Ingraham Angle”.
“It’s always unwise to seek political advice from someone who gets paid $100 million a year to bounce a ball,” she said.
“Keep the political comments to yourselves. … Shut up and dribble.”Despite her previous comments about LeBron and Durant, Ingraham went on her show last night and defended Drew Brees, who has found himself in hot water when he said that players who kneel during the anthem to protest police brutality are “disrespecting the flag”.
“Well, he’s allowed to have his view about what kneeling and the flag means to him. I mean, he’s a person. He has some worth, I imagine. I mean, this is beyond football, though. This is totalitarian conduct. This is Stalinist.”
