Gayle King says 'all black people don't look alike' after Fox News mix-up with Robin Roberts

Apparently, Fox News host Jesse Watters can't tell the difference between African-American anchors Gayle King and Robin Roberts. King's response: "All black people do not look alike."

Fox News praised King's explosive interview with R. Kelly during Wednesday’s segment of "The Five," where Watters slammed the embattled singer for "acting like a child, throwing a tantrum and acting like he was the victim."

"Hats off to Gayle King for totally redeeming herself after the (Jussie) Smollett fiasco," Watters concluded his remarks.

Problem is, that wasn't King who interviewed Smollett. It was Roberts.

I have not watched her or Gayle King in years. I haven't watched network morning shows or evening news in a few years, either. But I would think a broadcaster or other person in that business would know who their competition is.
