Loni Is Not Here For Laura Ingraham’s Issues with LeBron James
Loni Love: I don’t understand the rudeness in the comment. I mean…
Adrienne Houghton: Bitter Betty over there.
Loni: … first of all, he did graduate high school –
Jeannie Mai: Yes.
Loni: – like Jeannie said. Secondly, why don’t we talk about the positive things? I would rather see him doing this
[The Real audience applauds]
Loni: – he has the LeBron James Family Foundation that helps so many children. Why don’t we talk about that? And why don’t we praise that? And the thing is, he is a law-abiding, tax-paying American citizen like all of us…
Jeannie: Just like us.
Loni: He has a right, just because he has a bigger platform, doesn’t mean that he can’t express what he needs to express. I just like the way he handled it.
[The Real audience applauds]
Loni: He handled it with class and professionalism and dignity. And I’m glad that he’s not afraid to speak his mind, so – good for you, LeBron – you keep speaking. You are more than an athlete.
