Gayle King speaks out after controversial interview

Gayle King is speaking out after coming under fire for asking Lisa Leslie during an interview if she thinks NBA legend, Kobe Bryant's, legacy is complicated by the 2003 sexual assault charge.

See a clip from the interview that went viral below.

Many people, including Snoop Dogg and LeBron James, were furious about the question since Bryant just passed away tragically alongside his daughter and 7 others in a helicopter crash at the end of January.

The "CBS This Morning" anchor has spoken out saying, "I felt really good about the interview. So for the network to take the most salacious part, when taken out of context, and put it up online for people who didn't see the whole interview is very upsetting to me. There will be a very intense discussion about that."

Watch her full response below.
