She IS the manager. Got anything else? 

This isn’t tiktok. She literally doesn’t need clout. She’s on a show that for some reason people have watched for nearly 20 years.

Sure, for those of us searching DESPERATELY for something to be offended/outraged by.

“...16-year-old Jamir Strane, appeared to have initiated the fracas by punching Bennett in the back of the head,...”

You should know not to trust Jezebel to give you the full picture.

“She tried to use his fame for clout”

Oh come on.  She was talking about a thing while filming the show on a podcast about the show.

I am sort of surprised by this take on Jezebel. The guy has a known history of bring prickly in general, and downright hostile to women in particular. For some reason (I assume because of a dislike of Pompeo) this became about race here, but this should have been about a known dick flying off the handle on Pompeo, and…

That’s exactly how I read it. He has a reputation for being a dick to women on set and elsewhere. I think the author of this piece can’t see past her dislike of Ellen Pompeo to realize Denzel’s statement isn’t the burn she thinks she is.

Does this mean that Denzel is such an asshole that he can’t possibly recall one incident of him being an asshole?

This was a very interesting and hopeful story I heard on NPR last night. 

Why do you say that? If whites don’t live up to another races’ expectations, are we supposed to, what? Wallow in our own guilt? It’s our fault for not kowtowing the right way? There are literally hundreds of examples of programs, regulations, actions, religious organizations and charities that seek to offer a hand-up…

If he’s on or near the beach (or a pool), I’ll let it slide.

“Help me kind of figure it all out. We’re all trying to figure this pandemic out and the new strain.”

LeBron never obtained a college degree which is why he spouts superstitious, ignorant peasant nonsense.

For all the good that Lebron James has done in the black community, he is an incredibly pompous and hypocritical individual. He is wrong about this issue and not only won’t admit it, but makes it seem like Kareem just doesn’t understand what he said and he doesn’t want to explain it to him. When he was caught making…

Lebron James posting this is about as bad as Kaepernick posting that he doesn’t vote.

Folks look at both as leaders (although they shouldn’t) and many follow what they say. Kaep is generally smart enough not to talk too much. Lebron puts his foot in his mouth often. I don’t get why many of them post on social media as…

The idea that people have “forgot” about the flu, about cancers, about whatever the fuck happens to be killing people at any particular moment, is utter bullshit. Covid is happening at the same time as all those other things and is something, through vaccination and safe behaviors, that individual human beings can…

Then WHY report this? Who the F cares about some third tier reality star having a flaming pile of dog crap masquerading as a marriage? Him being married to a White woman wasn’t the problem, it was the entire setup. Anyone unstable enough to marry someone despite knowing relatively little about them and then bailing…

In the first Yougov link you can see just how fast their popularity died after the January 2020 statement saying they were “stepping back” (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51040751) which came across as a “betrayal” in the UK because of the whole bollocks about “duty” and how it was them being unwilling to do “the job”…

As a Brit, absolutely agreed. The Harry and Megan stuff was a much bigger deal here in the US than back home. My impression is that, the press notwithstanding, lots of people liked them up until that interview which didn’t do them any favors and as you said muddied the waters regarding their more serious allegations.…
