  2. Charles Labry It was more likely due to a fear that advertisers would cancel than her weir d support for Trump. And the decision to cancel was not based on opposing ideas or how well here show did, but her outright bigotry. If she had attacked what this woman did, rather than who she is, there would have been no cancellation. In other words, saying this woman's actions were bad because of how it affected the country is different than calling her an ape. Can't you see the difference between saying "I think you are wrong because " and then siting reasons, as opposed to saying "you're a stupid idiot" or using a racial epithet?

  4. Byrd was in the KKK for around a year in the 40's , and then quit. By 1952 he disavowed them and apologized for having ever been a member. He then avidly supported the NAACP and civil rights and hate crimes legislation. When he passed in 2010, the NAACP honored him for his lifetime service for civil rights. By the time he mentored Sen. Clinton, he was working for civil rights. Tell the whole story.
