As WZ reported earlier, former HLN host Nancy Grace appeared on The Jim and Sam Show on SiriusXM radio. She walked out on the interview when being criticized for her coverage of pro wrestling deaths in the past. I weigh in with my thoughts on Upgruv.com. Here’s an excerpt:
Grace got defensive when asked by Roberts and she began to explain to him that she feels pro wrestlers aren’t protected or cared for at all. Roberts, who has interviewed a majority of the WWE roster over the past 5 years, disagreed by remarking he’s spoken to many in the business who feel she’s inaccurately telling the story.
Kudos to Sam for saying what he said.
To continue this, I wonder if Nancy is aware these talents are paid hundreds of thousands and some in the millions today with powerful marketing behind their characters. Does she really think with that kind of investment there is no looking out for their well-being by their employer?
Yes, steroid and drugs was a big part of the pro wrestling culture once upon a time. But the level of cleanliness and health today in a WWE locker room, the industry leading promotion, is the best its ever been.
It seems Nancy Grace is living in the past with no education of anything current in this issue.
