\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: The owner of the Atlanta Hawks<\/a>, Bruce Levenson. We\u2019ve got Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and I\u2019ll get to his sound bites after the break here, but Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, where did he say this? He was on Anderson Cooper 29 last night. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar with talking about the Hawks owner Bruce Levenson reporting himself for having written an offensive e-mail and his decision to sell the team. <\/p>\n

This is unheard of: A self-reported offensive racist e-mail that he wrote. This guy, this guy… (laughing) Well, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, get this. You\u2019ll hear this coming up in the audio sound bite. I haven\u2019t got time to play it for you right now. Well, I do if I hit it right now, and I didn\u2019t so I\u2019m out of time. Certainly not enough time to add commentary, but he says that Levenson needs a chance to defend himself. <\/p>\n

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar thinks Arthur Levenson isn\u2019t a racist. He\u2019s just feeling guilty and needs a chance to defend himself. (laughing) Now, you know, I\u2019m a student of words and fact that words mean things. How in the world can somebody who has accused themselves deserve a chance to defend themselves? How does that work? He accused himself, he admitted it, and Kareem thinks he\u2019s being denied a chance to defend himself here. <\/line><\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: There\u2019s a whole bunch of characteristics about this that, you know, nobody is gonna bring up in terms of trying to explain it. But we\u2019ll get to the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar sound bites on Bruce Levenson. I can\u2019t believe people don\u2019t know what\u2019s really going on with this guy, but I will hold back until we hear from well-known intellectual Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on this. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: No time for the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar audio. We\u2019ll have to do it tomorrow. But basically the Atlanta Hawks guy sees that Sterling got two billion for his team and wants to see what he can get. That\u2019s what he\u2019s going for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
