Gayle King's offensive question startles co-hosts Alex Cooper and CBS Mornings.

During the morning news hour, Gayle King is becoming risqué. During a Tuesday interview for "CBS Mornings," King gave Alex Cooper, host of the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, a taste of her own medicine by asking a question that wasn't appropriate for the workplace in the middle of the show. You and Matt (Kaplan) are newlyweds. A year will pass. What is your favorite sex position with Matt, then? I'm interested to know."Oh my god, Gayle!" was the 30-year-old podcaster who was at the top of the charts' response. Can we have a conversation about that? Nate Burleson, co-anchor, added, "Producers said 'No!' in my ear."King clarified that she intended to draw attention to the intimate things Cooper can ask celebrities on her show without getting caught.

"The reason why I'm doing that is I'm making a point here, because this is what Alex does on her show," stated King. "Katy Perry discusses her love language with her. Hailey Bieber talked about her favorite sex position because of you. Simone Biles regarding her psychological well-being."I did that facetiously because I knew you wouldn't answer," she said. The thing that strikes me as amazing about you, though, is that you're sitting there wearing those cozy hooded sweatshirts. You ask a lot of intelligent (ones) questions mixed in with these profane ones. And I want to know what's driving you crazy. How you manage to elicit conversation. And it's a compliment, I promise."
