CNN’s Don Lemon Asks Gladys Knight If Singing National Anthem at the Super Bowl Will Hurt Her Career
by Accuracy In Media on February 6, 2019
This year, soul music legend and Atlanta native Gladys Knight sang the national anthem at the Super Bowl. After her performance, CNN anchor Don Lemon wanted to know if she thought doing so would negatively impact her career.
“For me, it’s just for me about respect,†Knight said. “I’m just hoping it will be about our country and how we treat each other and being the great country that we are.â€
Mark Geragos, the attorney for former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, accused performers of “crossing an intellectual picket line†to perform at Sunday’s game and “caring more about [their] career†than about doing what is right.
