This guy needs better PR, or a muzzle.
Donald Sterling took his “talents” to Anderson Cooper tonight, in a prime time interview where he’s expected to air all about the stirring scandal that led to him being banned from the NBA by Commissioner Adam Silver, and a rally from the other 29 owners of NBA teams to have him ousted as an owner.
Though the official video of the interview hasn’t been released, it is currently being played live on CNN right now, and Cooper was just joined by Spike Lee who is offering his opinion on Sterling’s disturbing comments.
After claiming he told V. Stiviano, who leaked the infamous audio of Sterling’s racist rant to TMZ a few short weeks ago, not to bring Magic Johnson to the Clippers arena ever again because he was jealous of their relationship, Sterling went more in depth, claiming that Magic Johnson is not a role model, because of the sexual relations he carried on with “when he had those AIDS”, and claiming that Johnson has done nothing for the black community, when Cooper asked Sterling to comment on the Lakers’ legend.
Cooper disproved Sterling’s claims during breaks from the interview, citing that Johnson’s humanitarian efforts have been rated highly by the non-profit community, and he has donated millions of dollars to underprivileged individuals and minorities.
Check back with us to view the interview in its entirety as soon as the video is released.
