Stephen A. Smith: Tapper Deserves ‘Whoop-Ass’ from Megyn Kelly Based on What His Book Says

‘I’m certainly not here to throw shade at him’

EXCERPT:

SMITH: "I watched it. I watched it. She opened up a big-time can of whip-ass. That’s a very good way. She put it on Jake Tapper, make no mistake about it. And with respect to him, he deserved it based on what the book says, based on what the book says and the facts then emanated out of the book and the fact that we know to be true without reading the book. But why did — why did he deserve it? Why did he deserve it? Here is why. You got the video of him talking to Lara Trump and how — how condescending he was to her, etc. And I’m certainly not here to throw shade on him, I don’t play that game. I’m just talking about the facts. They are what they are and we see it. And so it’s about how you were acting towards people who had the audacity to be opposite and express some level of dissent to what you were saying, what you were reporting on, and what your network was reporting on. It’s not the fact that you were just wrong. It was the defiance and the condescending approach that you had, a dismissive approach that you had towards others.”
