Why are All the “BLACK” Reporters Covering Michelle Obama? The Story Howard Kurtz SHOULD Have Covered..BUT WON’T

Categories: Uncategorized, Video

Howard Kurtz needs to be worried about why the Washington Post is charging people a quarter million dollars to have dranks and vittles with Washington Post reporters instead of maligning Black reporters covering Michelle Obama. Rachel Swarns of the New York Times and The Washington Post's Robin Givhan were among those herded behind the rope Monday. They and the other main beat reporters -- Newsweek's Allison Samuels, Darlene Superville of the Associated Press and Politico's Nia-Malika Henderson -- have something in common: They ... Read More

Why Jackie Norris is no Longer First Lady Michelle Obama’s Chief of Staff… According to the WAPO

Categories: Uncategorized

So last month SJP put up a post about the departure of Jackie Norris as First Lady Michelle Obama's Chief of Staff. Norris said she was leaving because she felt too constrained. As a general practice anytime someone leaves a relatively high position in government, I assume there is a much more interesting back story that will eventually come out. Now that the back story is out, I am SO. NOT. SURPRISED :) It appears that Norris bumped heads with ... Read More

Classless, Tacky, Bourgie (siditty) Black Folks of Martha’s Vineyard Call First Lady Michelle Obama -”Ghetto”

Categories: Chicanery/Foolishness

Oh my goodness. Just last week I told my readers over at WAOD that you haven't seen class warfare until you've seen BLACK CLASS WARFARE.( What Chanequa Campbell Did Wrong at Harvard- How She Can Fix Things Now.) Yes, my non-Black readers, Black folks in America can be VERY class-conscious. You need to read a book called "Our Kind of People." by Otis Graham. So it is not surprising that the siditty Black residents of Martha's Vineyard would say something like this. Just ... Read More

Hat tip to @FakeMichelle on Twitter. Oh Oh, remember the Black Artists Association being upset that the First Lady didn't pick a Black designer despite the fact that the BAA doesn't actually represent Black designers. Well now some folks in Oakland San Francisco (Thanks Cee Cee) are upset about First Lady Michelle Obama's visit to San Francisco and the Bret Harte Elementary School. It appears that they failed to heed the call for volunteers to build a playground IN THEIR OWN NEIGHBORHOOD ... Read More
