In what has become an annual tradition, the topic of white people in blackface came up as whether or not it's appropriate for white people to use black face paint as a part of a costume. What one should say in that moment is "of course it's inappropriate, now let's go to Al for a look at the weather." That is not what sweet Megyn did. She wondered aloud "but what is racist?" At this point a producer should have been looking at her thusly:
She then continued to dig her hole deeper. "Because you do get in trouble if you are a white person who puts on blackface on Halloween, or a black person who puts on whiteface for Halloween. Back when I was a kid that was OK, as long as you were dressing up as, like, a character."
While this may seem like more of a stupidity thing, this was just the cherry on the trash ass sundae she has been. For instance there was her meltdown about how Jesus and Santa Claus is not black. “And by the way, for all you kids watching at home, Santa just is white."
She followed up with “Jesus was a white man, too… He was a historical figure, that’s a verifiable fact, as is Santa. I just want the kids watching to know that.” And of course who could forget her proclamation that a McKinney, Texas teenager was "no saint either." A teen who wearing nothing but a swimsuit and was tackled by and pinned to the ground by an overzealous suburban commando.
Look at this clown. |
So while I don't think it was the blackface comments that got her fired, more so her god awful ratings I won't shed any tears that this charisma deficient newsroom Barbie won't be on our tv every morning. So Megyn, I tip my cap to you for somehow getting paid more every time you get fired but...
