Monique isn't as popular or relevant today as, say, Amy Schumer, who I personally don't find funny at all. Schumer is selling out shows and in the meantime, what is Monique doing? She could've quietly declined Netflix's offer, set up her own comedy tour, prove she's worth more than $500k and renegotiate with Netflix. Instead, she's using what platform she has left to ask that her fans and others boycott Netflix and I don't see that happening. She claims she's been blackballed from the industry since "Precious" and this is all probably further alienating her. I go back and forth with Monique. I understand her pain, but, I think that there is a constructive way to channel her anger. She has become very bitter in some ways. She reminds me of Rose McGowen in that regard. If you are constantly lashing out, people will tune you out and miss your message. 1 Link to comment

I sympathize with her plight because sexism and racism exist in that industry, but yeah, her anger seems to come from something beyond just those disparities. If she channeled that anger into making a comeback special or tour, I think the industry that she claims blackballed her would be more forgiving. Link to comment

NotinKansasanymore January 23, 2018 Share January 23, 2018 I really liked Ann Curry on the show today. Seeing a journalist interview the guests, really confirmed to me, that interviewing really isn't a strong skill for the panel on the View. I watch more for entertainment purposes, and enjoy watching them in Hot Topics more than their interviews. One thing that does bother me though, is that the View always focuses on the sexual harassment on other networks, NBC or FOX news but I've never seen them address the sexual harassment news that involves ABC/Disney. Did they ever talk about Mario Batali being fired from the Chew? Did they ever talk about ABC actually pulling the entire Great American Baking Show after only showing one episode, due to the sexual harassment complaints against the host, Johnny Luzzini? They talk about Weinstein a lot but what about Disney Pixar's John Lasseter? It bothers me because while they let the Ladies of the View talk about other networks, they never let them talk about ABC or Disney, in a negative way. Link to comment

Apparently you’ve never heard of Christiane Amanpour, Anderson Cooper, Alex Wagner, LISA LING(!), Diane Sawyer, you narrow minded, tunnel vision little twit.??? And very interesting she doesn’t think that Fox is a news network. And I can’t believe she actually admitted she prefers to be around people who think and feel just like she does and are like-minded. Just like I said yesterday. And she just had to throw in there that Jane Fonda was spreading “Anti-War Propoganda.” Stay in your lane, if you please, since you don’t know anything about it. And Joy proved she can be unbiased when she called out LBJ for being keeping us in Vietnam. And of COURSE she loved and watched I, Tonya. Her personality is very similar to that narcissist, Tonya. And they did a horrible job with the make-up on Margot Robbie. The clip they showed of her when the real Tonya’s blade broke? She didn’t look like the Joker or Chuckie’s Bride, like Robbie did. And speaking of which, Tonya was supposed to be on yesterday. Whoopi said so two weeks ago, I think. And yes, there is a lack of empathy and Ana (on yesterday’s show) and the ones lacking it, have made themselves known. And I’ll leave it at that. And THANK YOU, Josh Fedele, for giving credit to Tarana Burke, the woman who CREATED the #MeToo movement. I’ve been feeling that Fucking Hollywood has hijacked it and is acting as if they’re responsible for bringing this to light. 1 Link to comment

Also, "The Post" is an excellent movie and quite relevant to current events, as Joy said. MM said "I, Tonya" was great. I haven't seen it yet but like MM, I was young when the whole scandal broke out. I think it was well-received by critics. Ann Curry looks fantastic!

Racism: She was offered less money than Amy Schumer, a WHITE female comedian she probably considers on par or better than. I quoted myself for reference. 9 hours ago, General Days said: That's not exactly how I took what Mo'nique was saying. In the segment they showed on The View, yesterday, she said Rock and Chappelle got 20 million and Schumer was originally offered 11 million and pushed back for 13 million. Mo'nique went on to say that when Schumer pushed back, she acknowledged that while she thought she was worth more than the 11, she understood wasn't at the same level as legends like Rock and Chappelle. From the segment they showed on The View, I felt like her real point was that a black woman was offered so much less than men (who in this case are black) and so much less than a white woman. She said she pointed out her resume, and while Netflix said they don't set their fees based on resume, when she asked why Schumer got so much more, they pretty much spouted Schumer's resume back to her (selling out Madison Square Garden, twice, a recent summer box office smash). I thought that's what I said up above. No? Edited January 24, 2018 by Blissfool Link to comment

When I read it, I wanted to add more context, because of the "on par with" bit -- which Mo'nique actually did say/imply (I'm not watching it again). I didn't think she articulated her case well in that Instagram video, by seeming to equate herself with the men, even though she first acknowledged that Schumer acknowledged that Chappelle and Rock were legends and she (Schumer) wasn't asking to be paid the same as them. In other words, the first time I watched Mo'nique, my take-away was, "This black woman was offered 500K, while a white woman was offered 11 million and pushed back for 13 million, and the two men got 20 million, and while they say they don't go by resumes, their used Schumer's resume to justify the disparity in our offers." When I read your post, I felt like its point was that she thinks she's on par with them. (And she certain said she was, I just didn't think that was the big point.)

Joy has experienced the highs and lows of life and she will not let some trust fund baby like Megan who has had everything handed to her, bring her down. She is 75, enjoying a great salary with her husband, daughter and grandson by her side. Megan is nothing to her, but, a colleague, that she has to tolerate at work. We have all had annoying co-workers, you grin and bear it.. Edited January 24, 2018 by Apprentice79 1 Link to comment
GHScorpiosRule January 24, 2018 Share January 24, 2018 I find it hilarious that Meghan keeps throwing out how she wants to get drunk with Joy, but Joy won't agree. That tells me that Joy sees her as just a colleague and isn't interested in socializing with her. Link to comment
