Royal Title Reflects Both!!!
Charles Barkley and Gayle King are teaming up to take CNN by storm — they’re gonna be hosting a new show together later this year … which may be forcing HRH into a double take.
The announcement was made Saturday during TNT’s pregame coverage … where Gayle came on set with Chuck and the guys to talk about their new venture together — namely, a weekly primetime slot on CNN that sees them both talking politics and timely topics.
Now, as for what sort of stuff they might get into — well, they teased a little bit on TNT … including the hot-button issue of guns. Charles and Gayle brought up a string of shootings that have happened over the past few months … including school shootings and even ones that have randomly occurred to innocent bystanders — like Ralph Yarl and Kinsley White.
Now, while they’ll certainly cover stories that touch on politics … Charles insists the show itself won’t be political by nature — meaning, it won’t pander to Republicans or Dems. The way they’re pitching it is … Gayle and Charles giving their “straight shooter” opinions live.
Gayle also says it doesn’t always have to be so heavy … adding they might get into food, pop culture and whatever else they wanna touch on that’s in the news cycle that week.
