How can i fix TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable when using flask and Sqlite3?

I am trying to format the date which comes from my sqlite3 database engine. I am using a Flask framework to host the application and I am getting the following error message: 'None Type object is not subcriptable'which may have to do with the way I am formatting my date when pulled from my database. Not sure on what to do here?

     @app.route('/view/<date>', methods=['GET','POST'])#date to be 20200520 format
     def view(date):
          db = get_db()
          cur = db.execute('select entry_date from log_date where entry_date = ?', [date])
          result = cur.fetchone()
          d = datetime.strptime(str(result['entry_date']), '%Y%m%d')
          pretty_date = datetime.strftime(d, '%B %d, %Y')

         return render_template('day.html', date=pretty_date)

The error that I am getting is:
