Wanda Sykes on Fox

[bcp]

Seems odd....
can anyone guess what they are thinking by bringing on a seriously racist, pro obama black woman to their lineup???

No guess why she took the spot, nobody else will have her.

Hmmm, , just cant put my finger on a possible reason for FOX to do something like this,

Entertainment.

FAIR AND BALANCED. Nuff said. Or is it FOX Entertainment rather than FOX News that'll have to put up with this grease spot?

Who is this Wanda Sykes person, and why should I care?

She's like a black female version of Gilbert Gottfried.

I find her very entertaining and love all her comedy specials. Her last one was on HBO a few weeks ago - I'm'a B Me or something like that. It was cute! I generally like her stuff.

I thought you were headed for Chris Rock, but he's already black so that would be a little redundant.

Nah. Chris Rock is acutally funny.

Her comedy is kinda annoying to me.

I have not seen her in a long time. The last I saw her with any regularity, she was doing those Fox NFL bits, which was a couple years ago I guess.

shes the one that said she wanted to see Rush's kidneys fail because Rush didnt agree with obama.

Without the Afflac Duck Voice contract

There is another thread dealing with PORCH MONKEY reference to Juan Williams. Someone (Severa) posted a clip from Clerks II. Wanda Sykes is the black bitch who gets upset when the guy keeps using the phrase PORCH MONKEY.

Man: That woman sucks. She is about as funny as testicular cancer.

Can't imagine Fox hiring her for anything, unless it's to get Obama off their ass.

Oh welll once I learn where she is I can avoid it. Like the Joy Behar show.

 

[Aerogal]

her comedy style is acerbic - meaning sharp or biting. I'm glad she has the brass to go on, most libs won't.

Sykes' Limbaugh Jokes Spark Anger - Political Hotsheet - CBS News
It sounds like a stupid move to me. Fox is far ahead of the pack in the ratings and I would bet your farm that 99% of their audience wouldn't cry if Wanda had a kidney problem. They will lose audience in her time slot.

Wasn't she in monster in law? If that was her, I thought she was funny in that movie.

Like most "celebrities" she should stay in her fantasy world and leave politics alone.

 

[hvp05]

Wasn't she in monster in law?

Yes. And an IMDb check reveals that she is almost local... from Portsmouth, VA. (May be why she's so annoying. )

 

[bcp]

In all honesty, I think she is funny.
but the fact remains that she is a seriously racist individual, and its accepted.
The racist part doesnt bother me, but her being accepted and nothing being said does. If she were white, making similar black jokes, she would be forced to leave TV, go into rehab, pay restitution and most likely have to interview with Al Sharpton.

Oooh, thanks for the grammar lesson. I'm pretty sure I would find her vapid; meaning insipid, tasteless, and dull.
