Two athletes speaking out on social issues, two different responses from Ingraham
Fox News’ Laura Ingraham was none too pleased Wednesday night as she covered criticism of Saints quarterback Drew Brees on her primetime show. Brees was called out earlier in the day for saying he doesn’t support kneeling in protest during the national anthem because he sees it as disrespectful to the flag.
While the New Orleans athlete has since apologized, Ingraham said of the criticism, “This is totalitarian conduct. This is Stalinist.”
She also said Brees is “allowed to have his view about what kneeling and the flag mean to him,” in her opinion.
