Tuesday evening, our favorite badass warrior, Ellen Pompeo took to Twitter to unleash her female wrath over TMZ's Harvey Levin's unprofessional journalism tactics during the news of Kobe Bryant's helicopter crash.
Harvey Levin broke the news on Sunday that Kobe and Gigi Bryant, Alyssa, John, and Keri Altobell, Alyssa, Sarah and Payton Chester, Ara Zobayan, and Christina Mauser's deaths before their families were informed.
Ellen Pompeo is known for not holding back when it comes to something she believes in passionately, we stan a female leading badass.
Typically, Ellen uses her Twitter to express her support or EXTREME dismay and disapproval when issues are highlighted in the media.
Most recently, Ellen's Twitter is threaded with tweets regarding the lack of empathy and unprofessional journalism shown by Harvey Levin.
Harvey Levin was the first to release the news of the Bryant helicopter crash via TMZ on Sunday. LA County Sheriff, Alex Villanueva, then confirmed that TMZ did not wait until the families were informed by authorities to release the story.
This is outrageous, and exactly why Ellen Pompeo took it upon herself to express the disgust that the world is feeling, well, except for Harvey Levin.

After a user tweeted back to one of her tweets placing blame on the first responders, Ellen did NOT waste time rebutting with strong support for first responders.
I think the first responders were a little busy... we don’t go after first responders we celebrate them... they are… https://t.co/173Z6wKqAa— Ellen Pompeo (@Ellen Pompeo) 1580251544.0
The Twitter rampage continued as Ellen interacted with other users who agreed and disagreed.
She later brought to light the "white male privilege" because of the resources that are used from PD to TMZ to obtain information on celebrities.
Ellen is definitely a force for advocating for those who don't have a voice and continues to be on the frontlines fighting for the right thing.
