Schlessinger was referring to a call she got on her show Tuesday from an African-American woman who said she was married to a white man and was getting fed up with her husband allowing his family and friends to say things that she felt were racist.- CNN
What in the tomandhelenwillis Hell is going on? Did the woman ever get some adequate advice?
Sooo many questions *scratches head* :-/
Here the racial rant phone call after the jump...
Selena, this woman completely lost it on that call. I've been a fan for over a decade, and while I OBVIOUSLY don't agree with everything she says, she does have good advice sometimes. She's ruined her credibility for a lot of folks who had some respect for her.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I have noticed in recent years an increase in her inability to actually LISTEN to her callers. She constantly cuts them off, blames the victim, etc.
For example:
Got hit by a bus?
Dr. Laura: Dummy, you should have watched where you were going!
Got cheated on?
Dr. Laura: What did you do to MAKE your husband do it?
Your husband beats you?
Dr. Laura: Sorry you chose a mate so poorly.
As I mentioned, I’ve listened to her for years, and she’s recently started do this on a regular–her cantankerousness has gotten much worse with age.
Wow!! I heard she got worst later on during the call.
ReplyDeleteMaybe she's being pressured to change-up her style in order to compete with the other shock jocks(?)
Unbelieveable *SMH*
No, excuses for bad behavior. The so-called dr. thinks she is better than everyone else. But, she will eventually get hers. She is a horrible woman.
ReplyDeleteYes, I said it.
