ABC, CBS avoid LeBron James tweet targeting Columbus police officer on morning, evening news programs
Fox News
ABC and CBS appeared to have benched NBA superstar LeBron James as the networks avoided his viral controversy on their morning and evening news programs.
Like many other public figures, the Los Angeles Lakers player suggested that the Columbus shooting was unjustified on the heels of the conviction of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin on murder and manslaughter charges in the death of George Floyd. "YOU’RE NEXT #ACCOUNTABILITY," James wrote on Wednesday with an hourglass emoji over an image of one of the officers at the scene of Bryant's shooting.More Related News
