IStandWithGayle trends after Gayle King receives death threats for raising Kobe Bryant rape allegations in Lisa Leslie interview
Following the criticism, King explained her side of the story via Twitter, stating that many people took her question out of context since CBS News only posted the clip of that one question about Bryant to Twitter., that King"is not doing well," and has received"death threats." In response, many have used Twitter to express their support for King.
"As journalists, we often have to ask tough and uncomfortable questions. It's within your right to disagree. What's not okay is to threaten anyone with vile, hate-filled language and death threats. #IStandWithGayle, @GayleKing," Twitter user Janelle Burrell, an anchor for CBS News Philadelphia, wrote.
