Yes, the hell in which he has to sit back and live on the millions of dollars he’s made over the course of his decades-long career. Poor baby.

At least he didn’t compare himself to Emmett Till. Or joke that he needs reparations. (Extremely low standard, I agree.)
“People used to accept my casual bullying but now it’s a unseemly! Too bad it’s part of my self-image now, that can and will never be questioned*”
Look, Megyn Kelly is a lot of things, but she’s not stupid. She’s been in the public eye for a couple of decades and knows damn well how this shit works. You will never convince me she was somehow unaware of the social and political baggage that blackface carries, and only discovered that now.
I don’t know why people are surprised at her. This is the exact same woman that said Santa Claus is white because he just is, among other wild shit. This is who she is.
“I’d avoid her tears, they’re probably just excreted acid.” I needed to read this, thanks!
Actually, Kelly knew blackface was wrong at least over 2 years ago. She did not learn anything. She was merely gas lighting any undecided Becky(s) in the audience. Her tweet is still up.
Boy, things must have gotten heated behind the scenes for Today Show to devote a whole segment and let folks speak more freely than usual. Now that’s the part that I would have loved to have seen.
I do love it when Al stops being funny weatherman and gets real
Oh, Miss “Santa and Jesus are just white!” is a little bit racist, is she? 😲
Cough--BULLSHIT-clears throat. I was in NY on Monday, indulging my whims & sitting in the audience of a different show, playing hooky from work. Now I'm sorry that I didn't go to this show instead (to observe Becky-Megyn's FAKE apology): and remain seated & visibly pissed while everyone else stood and applauded. Tfoh.…
I said this earlier: NBC cut your losses and get rid of her. She has cost you talent (Tamron Hall) as well as your standing as the #1 daytime show.
“Politically Correct” also means “diplomatic” or “respectful.” It’s important to always keep that in mind when someone is trying to boast that they aren’t “PC” and never will be
Yes, they were TOO quiet. So quiet, in fact, that they freaked the WYT woman out. Of course, if they’d even spoke they’d have been “disruptive”
Of course, when the police came, they told the boys that they should have acquiesced to the interrogation of the strange white lady even though she wasn’t the tour guide. “They…
Isn’t it infuriating that when this sh*t happens, and the victims report it, they are consistently not believed until someone shows the video? Apparently super racism is practically the norm. Why is it every. single. time. nobody believes it?!?!
The “good” part is that it was caught on camera -- because the Native American students who were attacked by white people for being on a student tour weren’t believed until they showed footage of it happening
I’m starting to think that its POC that should be wearing body cameras 100% of the time, and not just the police.
This is about respect and permission. Chapman is entitled as an artist to control her art. Before the music was even composed Minaj should have put a stop to it. She didn’t and this is what happens.
She claimed she and her family were discriminated against bc of their “Native Roots” which is such a slap in the fact to Native ppl who suffer extreme discrimination. She also claimed to be a minority in her Harvard teaching profile. Suffice to say she previously tried to milk it (basically to the max) far beyond…
You mean, wherein she tried to have it both ways? To be Native American enough to shut Trump up and not Native American enough to offend members of the community.
