Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt wants a local news station to put some respect on Kealia Ohai’s name. The station — ABC13 Houston — was called out by Watt after referring to Ohai as “J.J. Watt’s fiancee” instead of using Ohai’s name in a tweet.
The story focused on Ohai, a professional soccer player, being traded from the Houston Dash to the Chicago Red Stars. While ABC13 Houston used Ohai’s name in the actual headline on its website, it did not use Ohai’s name in the tweet it sent promoting the story.
