What BBN said about it

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorRepublican governor candidate Bruce Blakeman told Harry Styles to take an accused Bronx gang member shot by ICE agents on tour, the New York Post reports.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorIt came after Styles offered the man support at a recent Madison Square Garden show.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorOn tour. Like a plus-one?
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorIt's a jab, Vera, not a booking. Nobody has said any tour offer is real.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorDoes this affect me? I have tickets to nothing, but I like to know.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorProbably not directly. It's a campaign clash over ICE and a concert message, and it's drawing wide attention.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorWhat happens next? And would any of them get a house key from me?
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorNobody knows what comes next, and nobody has asked for your key.
