CBS co-host Vladimir Duthiers noted that many found the comment 'incredibly offensive'
First Lady Jill Biden took heat Monday for a short-sighted comment comparing Hispanics to "breakfast tacos" during the UnidosUS Annual Conference in San Antonio, Texas, but one CBS host was sympathetic to the gaffe.
"Raul helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community, as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength," she said Monday, praising UnidosUS President Raul Yzaguirre for his work.
"CBS Mornings" host Gayle King reassured viewers the remarks were not reflective of the First Lady during Tuesday's broadcast, saying, "When you know Jill Biden, that's not who she is."
King added that Biden's message "didn't come out correctly," while coming to her defense during the segment. King, who has donated to Democrats, has vacationed with the Obama family and is also close friends with billionaire Oprah Winfrey and Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J.

Taylor Penly...Do NOT put Quotation marks around what Jill Biden said unless YOU spell her words as she said them...
She did NOT say “bodegas”...She said “Bogedas”
What are “the blossoms of Miami” that I have never heard of until this moment?
.
Main stream media reporters are smart enough to know what people think. Which, explains why Dims and conservatives are treated differently. That is how hate filled mean nasty conservatives can be called out for the bad, bad, bad people they truly really are.
OK? Got it? There is no bias. Journalists cannot be faulted for being honest. That wouldn’t be right.
Being a liberal, means you’re never wrong.
Her cheerful mention of NYC bodegas should be offensive to the entire group, not only San Antonians, when we have a PR-American immigrant bodega clerk assaulted, stabbed, and then imprisoned and persecuted by the Soros radical legal system for having the temerity to defend his life.
I miss D.W.
Jill Biden doesn’t even know it’s supposed to be “Taco Tuesday” not Monday.
Ditto. They particularly hate it when white liberals refer to them as "Latinx."
WTF is a Latinx and how do you pronounce it?
Certainly the way she pronounced ‘bodegas’ made it clear she had no familiarity with what her TelePromTer writer had prepared, showing that Dzhil has no street cred whatsoever.
And she has a doctorate in education, the uneducated fool...LOL
Gayle, you ought to have your wig yanked and your suckup membership to the Democrats removed. You’re just too stupid to realize that attaching you name to defending the Bidens is ludicrous. The only Hispanics either one of them probably ever comes into contact are the gardener, the guy who washes and waxes the 67 Stingray and the day-cleaners they have to pick up all of Joe’s soiled diapers. Shame on you. Frigging idiot.
King is a spokeswoman for the DNC, apparently.
She’s almost as universally disliked as Big Mike.
A degree that was invented for the sole purpose of allowing liberals in academia or working for the federal government to get paid more.
