When discussing Kobe Bryant's tragic death on MSNBC, network personality Alison Morris 'stuttered on air' and combined the words 'Knicks' and 'Lakers,' leading some spectators to believe that she had used the n-word
"There was so many things about it that were bad," Morris said. "It was only my third show on MSNBC. I tripped over my words, and someone thought I said the n-word. I did not."
Morris said that her MSNBC colleague, anchor Ali Velshi, told her: "Any energy you waste trying to convince someone you're not racist when you're not racist is just wasted energy, because you just can't." With the country mourning the loss of Bryant and his daughter, Morris said, "I just didn't want anyone wasting time or energy on me as a side show. The whole thing was so bad. ... I'm not that active on social media, so I had never experienced that kind of — I guess 'vitriol' is the right word? I really have a new and deep appreciation for people who have gone through things like that. Because it's real, and it's scary, and it's a lot harder than we realize.
