Molly McPherson breaks down David Beckham's CNBC interview defending his son, where Beckham says kids make mistakes while promoting his UNICEF work. McPherson argues he's throwing his kid under the bus to protect his brand.
David Beckham went on CNBC and basically threw his kid under the bus. He did.
But what I found personally, you know, especially with my kids as well, use it for the right reasons. You know, I've been able to use my platform and my following, you know, for unicef. And it's been the biggest tool to make people aware of what's going on around the world for children. And I've tried to do the same. I've tried to do the same with my children, to educate them. They make mistakes.
And he wrapped it in a, in a sandwich with unicef. He promoted Miami, his team. He talked about what he is and what his family is as a brand. And he threw his kid under the bus. That's where I fall. I don't know the Beckhams. I have no idea. I'm just looking at the pattern cancel culture. They blame the problem with the Internet, the problem of social media, and that's what David Beckham did. So when I watched that video, I went, damn, he took the, he took like the low hanging fruit. He took the easy way out and just blamed social media. That's not a good choice to do, to say that kids make mistakes. Yeah, kids make a mistake. You want to know who else makes mistakes? Parents. They make mistakes all the time. The question can Bram beckham Survive? Yeah, 100%. It will absolutely survive. Family has drama all the time. But the brand has to evolve at this point. David and Victoria, now they will need to brand themselves as individuals more. And what they do as individuals, that's definitely what David Beckham did in this interview on cnbc.
