Note to Mediaite’s Colby Hall/Shep Smith … Joy Behar is Italian

Joy Behar, I suspect, knows little to nothing about ‘the barrio’ as she is not even close to being Spanish-American.  She is Italian-American in ancestry. No barrios, (added) at least in the American sense of the word. Strange comment. Here’s the quote: She’s not in a barrio anymore, she’s on the set of the view. [...]

Juan Williams is NOT the only black male on-air personality at NPR

Here’s the quote: “And now they have used an honest statement of feeling as the basis for a charge of bigotry to create a basis for firing me. Well, now that I no longer work for NPR let me give you my opinion. This is an outrageous violation of journalistic standards and ethics by management [...]

What REALLY led to the Bill O’Reilly/View walkout

Meh, of course, that didn’t go over so well.  However, despite Billo’s history, he kinda was niceish in trying to say: ‘Hey, that ain’t so nice.’ [...]

I can’t write about politics today

I can’t write, presently, about my dismay with political reporting. This week was exceptional. Sad face. Plenty of news, as of now, but – and plenty – of calling on people out for  bad behavior. Signed, ME

Kate’s Corner ~ Being “Outted” in Australian Society

By Kate Doak. As a young Transsexual woman, I’ve experienced what it’s like being “outted” to people in a way that doesn’t feel comfortable or safe. I’ve been bullied, sworn at, assaulted, lied to and ridiculed by others, purely because I’m supposedly something “different” to what they are used to. It’s not a pleasant feeling [...]
