Trolling Facebook over the weekend, many people were sharing an editorial by Dale Hansen, WFAA’s sportscaster.
WFAA is Tegna’s ABC affiliate in Dallas.
He’s not new to offering his comments on air, and while many of them are related to sports, some express his personal views on more profound issues like tolerance on issues like racism and gay rights.
In an article I wrote about Hansen’s views on some high school students holding a white power sign at a basketball game, Hansen said, “I like to write commentaries. I enjoy rocking the boat.”
Hansen has gone to the airwaves again, this time to reflect on the police shootings in his city of Dallas, at one point calling out the state’s lieutenant governor.
“America’s problem has come to Dallas now, and our lieutenant governor blames the peaceful protestors, because our lieutenant governor is a fool.
“We’ll fly our flags at half-mast, we’ll say all the right things, we’ll make promises we won’t keep, and then, nothing will change,” said Hansen.
“Our lives will go on, while the lives of so many others won’t, because we expect it now and we accept it.”
