Fuck You, Robin Quivers

The other day, as I read this article and listened to a recording of Howard Stern from his show on Sirius XM with co-host Robin Quivers, I sat red-faced, shocked, and annoyed. I was bothered, not by what Howard had to say really. I mean, the man is well known for his very controversial public remarks. What bothered me the most was listening to his co-host, Robin Quivers.

Robin Quivers, if you do not know, is African American. She's probably the highest paid female radio personality in the country, thanks to her massa, uh, boss Howard. The day after the Oscars, this black professional woman had the audacity to laugh and speak against actress Gabourey Sidibe's weight.

"Yeah, look in that room. Who else do you look like?" she giggled out to Gabourey.

If Robin had taken the time out to look around that room too, would she have found any familiar faces? In a room full of mostly white men and women, who did she resemble?

Gabourey is overweight. We all know that. That is a fact for sure. But that's her business and if anyone feels she needs help, send her a letter, speak to her in private, or pray for her. That's just the bottom line. Robin isn't her mother. In fact, they are not related to each other at all. I'm sure Robin isn't genuinely concerned for Gaby's wellbeing. Her comments were full of pure judgment and nothing more. They were just simple thoughts said aloud to tickle the funny bone. But I am not laughing.

It is my true opinion that all people of color should stick up for one another. Why is there always someone so full of himself he has to go on and attack the innocent? What did Gaby do? Why isn't Robin by her side?

Anyway, listen to the clip below. It's never OK to hit a woman, but quite frankly Robin deserves a slap.
