No one is claiming she did it on purpose. Why were the Knicks on her mind? There's no association at all. She did it. Just admit it was a slip of the tongue. We've all had Freudian slips.
No one on this board agrees with you.
I'll admit, when I first heard it (which is before the "nakers" defense and when it had literally just started going viral with the first caption I saw implying she had clearly said the N word) I was initially convinced she had actually said the N word.
But after listening to it back, she 100%, without a shadow of a doubt said "Nakers."
I have very little sympathy for her though. As far as I'm concerned, anyone that works for MSNBC sucks. But she definitely said "Nakers," and anyone arguing against that fact is just being ridiculous.
