Pass It On
This story started back on March 8 over a month ago. I have kept it on my mind, I just hadn't got around to putting my thoughts down. At first I was going to point out how stories change from one person to the next. That's the wonder of writing your thoughts and comments down. Then the story took on a whole new direction. I guess that's why I didn't finish. There was more to come.
The start of this story begins like this. A well known radio talkshow personality called the county Mayor "A. C. Wharton" a "House Ni##a". I know they weren't expecting to have to defend that statement. They just thought nobody with a voice would hear them. Unfortunately for them it didn't turn out that way. Though they were very vocal in denying the charge. Not only did the claim come from a credible source. I heard them say it with my own ears. They better be glad they weren't in a state of the art studio, it would have been on tape. I'm not so sure it isn't.
Two days later the words came back to haunt then. The statement was made that this person heard them, and as a result had lost their respect. Which according to them they had to a large degree before hearing these comments. To have them deny what you know you heard. Should only make it worse. Which I think it did.
This is where the "pass it on" comes into the picture. Between the person accused and those who agree with them.The N-word was changed to Negro instead of Ni##a. The station it was said on changed to one they know no one heard it. The person did call that station twice that day, but that's not where they made the comment.In addition to the flat out denials. Some of these people are outright lying. Others are just trying to repeat what they heard. The story changing everytime it's told.
Now we have this thing with "Don Imus". His executive producer "Bernard McGuirk" is much harsher than him. I don't applaud what he said. I've just heard it all before. Black celebrities and comedians make off color comments all the time. No one is calling for "Spike Lee's" head. Even though his movies were used as inspiration for the jokes. He shouldn't have said it on the radio, but he shouldn't be fired. Let's use our emotions here as a yardstick. As upset as we are about what Imus said on a show we don't even watch. We should pass it on.
