If you want to know all the dirty details, you should check out this blog, called The Rotspot.
Anyway, Tila posts a blog today about Dr. Laura. The title of her post was:
DR. LAURA USES N-WORD OVER AND OVER! WHAT THE F*C^ IS WRONG WITH HER
So, you would think with a title like this, Dr. Laura must have just lost all control over herself, right? Listen for yourself but, first read how Tila describes the call:
During her show, a woman called into ask Dr. Laura Schlessinger how to handle a situation she was clearly upset about. The caller is a black woman, married to a white man, and feels offended when his friends make racist remarks about black people.
Before the caller could finish her thought, Dr. Laura lays into her, spouting off “n****,n****,n****,” and when the woman calls her out on it, Laura’s tirade gets worse.
After the show, public outrage ensued, forcing Laura to apologize, saying
I talk every day about doing the right thing. And yesterday, I did the wrong thing…I was attempting to make a philosophical point, and I articulated the N -word all the way out — more than one time. And that was wrong. I’ll say it again — that was wrong.I think it’s a lame apology. The problem is, the woman was not asking Laura to validate her feelings. She just wanted advice on how to handle the situation. Instead, Dr. Laura chose to spew out one of the most offensive words in the English language, and tell the caller that she shouldn’t marry out of her race if she is hypersensitive. What a terrible way to handle the call. Very disappointing.
Take a listen for yourself, and share your opinion.
She didn't even use the word in a derogatory way. Of course, Tila's little sycophants are all over this, bashing Dr. Laura, someone they probably know nothing about.
Here's an exchange I found quite interesting and disturbing:
I dont see what is so rasict about that dr laura is telling the truth and i am of mixed race they do use the nigger word on tv its not like she was calling her a nigger she just said they use that word alot on tv and its only ok for black people to say it which i find crazy its just shows everyone how badly we belittle our own race but she is right the truth hurts dont it i like this lady and tila you are asian and you use the nigger word all the time so shove it
Just because some stupid people use the word on tv doesn't make it right. Who cares if they use it, this lady who called thinks it is not right to use it and she wants to know from a "doctor" how to handle it with her relatives when they use it. That is like saying "well serial killers kill all the time so why should you have a problem with killing"
