“The Nightly Show” host Larry Wilmore made one request to CNN on Thursday night following the network’s coverage of the shooting of an unarmed black man by a University of Cincinnati cop: Don’t use my mug shot.
When the network introduced both the cop (who is indicted for murder) and the man he killed, CNN used the dead man’s mugshot.
“This guy was just killed by the other guy and you put their mugshots together like they’re a bank-robbing team?” Wilmore said. “You know what ‘victim’ means? Right, CNN?”
But Wilmore said he is planning ahead.
“Let me ask you a favor, CNN. If I ever get shot by the cops, please use a picture of me with my kids. Alright?” he said. “Seriously, I don’t want to be remembered for that one time I went on that cooking meth bender with Nick Nolte.”
