In the wake of a headline-making interview in which Kurt Russell denounced gun control following the San Bernardino shooting, the “Hateful Eight” star is blaming the media.
When the actor was asked about the interview on the ABC daytime talk show “The View” on Friday, he explained that he was “ambushed” by a reporter during the “dog and pony show” of the movie’s press tour.
“Sometimes you get, what you kind of feel is slightly ambushed by somebody who’s really got an agenda,” Russell said. “And that’s sort of my opinion of what happened to me the other day.”
