Michael Strahan has issued a response after facing backlash for failing to put his hand over his heart during the U.S. national anthem.

During the show, a marching band played the “Star-Spangled Banner” as Fox commentators were seen standing at Naval Base San Diego with their hands over their hearts – a common gesture of respect.
