Video:Kings Fined by NBA for Anti-Detroit Imagery

kings fined by nba for anti-detroit imagery

new york -- the sacramento kings were fined $30,000 by the nba on monday for showing derogatory images of detroit on video screens prior to their home opener against the pistons.

when the pistons were introduced nov. 8, the arco arena scoreboard flashed pictures of abandoned buildings, burned-out cars, piles of rubble and other negative images of detroit. the pistons won the game 102-88.

the kings apologized that night and owners joe and gavin maloof bought full-page ads that ran in the detroit news and detroit free press, expressing "great respect for detroit's long and rich tradition as a landmark american city and the incredibly positive impact the motor city has made over the course of our country's history."

detroit’s abandoned schools

in the last half-century, detroit lost more than half its population. those leaving the city were mostly white people who fled to the suburbs. as a result, the tax base was destroyed and the black population that remains has had to govern a 139-square-mile city with limited resources.
