Speaker 1: This, don't be a dust because right now you want
Speaker 1: some real It's time for Donkey of the day. So
Speaker 1: if we ever feel I need to be a doge man,
Speaker 1: did she get the lease I had become donkey of
Speaker 1: the day the practice club, bitches, you're a dunkey. Okay, guys,
Speaker 1: uh donkey today for Tuesday, January tenth. Let make sure
Speaker 1: it's January tenth. I'll be off on my day is
Speaker 1: January tenth. U goes to UFC President Dana White. Now,
Speaker 1: this situation happened when we were off for holiday break,
Speaker 1: and I actually meant to get right to this yesterday,
Speaker 1: but I wasn't thinking about it, and I felt bad
Speaker 1: I wasn't thinking about it, because that's probably one of
Speaker 1: the reasons, you know, Jamie Fox and Dale hugely were
Speaker 1: criticizing the coverage of the fight that Dana White got
Speaker 1: into with his wife because it doesn't seem like people
Speaker 1: are thinking about it. Yes, if you haven't heard of
Speaker 1: footage was released to Dana White getting into a physical
Speaker 1: altercation with his wife on New Year's Eve. Let's go
Speaker 1: to Fox Houston twenty six forty port. Please back to
Speaker 1: the factor on sensitive Vault New Year's Eve for UFC
Speaker 1: president Dana White. Here and his wife were spotted slapping
Speaker 1: each other. Now. The incident was called on camera in
Speaker 1: a New Year's Eve nightclub in Cabo, Mexico. No word
Speaker 1: on what happened beforehand, but White has since apologized, saying
Speaker 1: there are new excuses for putting your hands on his wife.
Speaker 1: That's true. Okay, now listen, do I really have to
Speaker 1: sit here and have a conversation about why putting your
Speaker 1: hands on a woman is wrong? Well, I guess, y'all,
Speaker 1: I guess I do. Since folks are still out here
Speaker 1: doing it. You know, I don't care if it's your girlfriend,
Speaker 1: wife's sister. Just know. Okay, I heard people saying, you know,
Speaker 1: she slapped Dana White first, so Dana slapped her back.
Speaker 1: I promise you, in the court of public opinion, that's
Speaker 1: a scenario you really can't win. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you can win that in a court of law, I
Speaker 1: really don't. Maybe a judge will look at it this
Speaker 1: self defension. Maybe a judge won't. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: just feel if a woman puts their hands on you,
Speaker 1: if you don't have women around you to handle that situation, run, Okay,
Speaker 1: you can't win. What did Adrian tell a Rocky when
Speaker 1: he was gonna fight the Russian? You can't. Before there
Speaker 1: were reasons to fight, I could understand that. I don't
Speaker 1: understand this. Even if you win, what have you won?
Speaker 1: Apollo still gone? Why can't you change your thinking? Everybody
Speaker 1: else does because I'm a fighter. That's the way I
Speaker 1: made Adrian, that's what you married. We can't change what
Speaker 1: we are. You can't change anything, Adrian. All we can
Speaker 1: do is just go with what we are. You can't
Speaker 1: go with what you are. Have you read the papers?
Speaker 1: Do you know what everybody says? It's suicide. You can't win.
Speaker 1: Jesus you know? Well, thank you Adrian for believing in me. Okay,
Speaker 1: By the way, we don't talk about that enough. The
Speaker 1: fact that Rocky beat the Russian in spite of Adrian
Speaker 1: not believing. Okay, So what she came to Russia with
Speaker 1: him to train that wasn't support. She was there because
Speaker 1: she thought Rocky was gonna get killed by the Russian.
Speaker 1: Two that's true. Go back to the matter at hand,
Speaker 1: Dana White. Is there a double standard in the way
Speaker 1: the media covers domestic violence in regard to Dana White?
Speaker 1: We have seen how the media responded to Chris Brown
Speaker 1: different circumstances because another superstar, you know, was the victim.
Speaker 1: We've seen how they covered ray Rice, even though ray
Speaker 1: rice video footage was way more violent. But domestic violence
Speaker 1: is domestic violence, right. But I saw and heard some
Speaker 1: people who were defending Dana White. Some folks were saying,
Speaker 1: he's the president of the the UFC, and when people think
Speaker 1: mm may they think violence. So his actions, you know,
Speaker 1: weren't surprising to some people. But football is violent. Boxing
Speaker 1: is violent. But I don't see football players in boxes,
Speaker 1: you know, getting defended in the media. Now, the legends
Speaker 1: Jamie Fox and Dale hugely, you know, ask them questions.
Speaker 1: Dale hugely said, what can Brown do for you? Apparently
Speaker 1: not a damn thing if they if that had been
Speaker 1: a brother, they'd be NonStop coverage, dredging up a playground
Speaker 1: fight from the third grade, scouring old tweets, you name it.
Speaker 1: Dana White's entire life is immersed in brutal, physical violence.
Speaker 1: He's a master fortune from it. Where are the selasious headlines?
Speaker 1: Where's depression? Oh? He apologized? Hashtag white privilege scores a
Speaker 1: first round knockout yet again. Jamie Fox Co signed it
Speaker 1: and said, effin preach. Now, Dana White did apologize, Let's
Speaker 1: listen to it. I'm in Cobb, Mexico, you know, for
Speaker 1: the holidays with my family, and my wife and I
Speaker 1: were out Saturday night on New Year's Eve. You know,
Speaker 1: Unfortunately that's what happened. You know, you've heard me say
Speaker 1: for years there's never ever an excuse for a guy
Speaker 1: to put his hands on a woman. And now here
Speaker 1: I am on TMZ talking about it. But my wife
Speaker 1: and I have been married for almost thirty years. We've
Speaker 1: known each other since we were twelve years old. We've
Speaker 1: obviously been through some shit together and we've got three kids,
Speaker 1: and you know, this is one of those situations that's,
Speaker 1: you know, horrible. I'm embarrassed. You don't put your hands
Speaker 1: on a woman. Ever. He's right, you know, put you
Speaker 1: hands on a woman. Ever. He's owning up to it.
Speaker 1: You know, he's apologizing. Like I said, I've heard boxes
Speaker 1: football players, you know, they've been in these same situations.
Speaker 1: They apologize and they were still demonized. Here's the thing
Speaker 1: I agree with, deal Hugo, But this is what I
Speaker 1: would say. Mainstream media, whatever that means nowadays, is reporting
Speaker 1: on Dana White. Think this outrage that DL is looking
Speaker 1: for this NonStop coverage just you know, pulling up old tweets,
Speaker 1: you know, pulling up old fights from third grade. I
Speaker 1: don't care what y'all say. That comes from social media. Okay,
Speaker 1: that comes from Twitter a lot of the times. Okay.
Speaker 1: The only reason the mainscream media has moved on from
Speaker 1: this is because it doesn't seem like a hot story
Speaker 1: because there's no reaction from social media. I keep telling
Speaker 1: y'all over and over. If you you know, if if
Speaker 1: you you know, want these mainstream outlets to react, then
Speaker 1: you have to make them react. You know, most of
Speaker 1: these mainscream outlets are reacting to what's happening on social media.
Speaker 1: You can be watching one of these networks CNN, MSNBC,
Speaker 1: and when some foolish celebrity nonsense starts trending on social media,
Speaker 1: they will stop talking about actual issues, about actual issue
Speaker 1: going on in the world to report on the celebrity nonsense. Now,
Speaker 1: is there a double standing on how mainstream media covers
Speaker 1: of black people and white people? Of course it is, okay,
Speaker 1: always has been, but there is other screams and social
Speaker 1: media really sadly is the screen that matters nowadays. So
Speaker 1: if you want people to cover Dana White, and you
Speaker 1: got to cause him up for on social media. But
Speaker 1: more importantly, what's the ask? You can't just make noise? Okay.
Speaker 1: I've told y'all this a million times. Power concedes nothing
Speaker 1: without a demand. It never did and it never will.
Speaker 1: That's the word to Frederick Douglas. Okay, you can't just say, oh,
Speaker 1: the media isn't covering Dana White, because they are. What
Speaker 1: you really want is Dana to have consequences for his actions.
Speaker 1: But who is going to impose those consequences? Okay? Who
Speaker 1: is going to push to have consequences? You know? Leveled
Speaker 1: against Dana White? Is Dana White being covered different because
Speaker 1: he's white, rich, powerful ords He being covered different because
Speaker 1: she hit him first and it could be considered self defenses.
Speaker 1: He being covered different because he apologized and he owned
Speaker 1: up to it. I don't know, okay, but I do
Speaker 1: know he's gonna get the credit he deserves for being stupid.
Speaker 1: So please give Dana White the biggest he huh. Let
Speaker 1: m Mark give Dana White the biggest he ha he
Speaker 1: ha he ha. He's stupid, motherfu are you dumb. I
Speaker 1: haven't heard him yet this year, all right. I'm sure
Speaker 1: she'll be yess co hosting at some point, I hope. So, yes,
Speaker 1: all right, you know those are questions I do want
Speaker 1: to know, Like it, is Dana White being covered different
Speaker 1: because he's white, rich and powerful? Is he being covered
Speaker 1: different because she hit him first? Nick could be considered
Speaker 1: self defense because I've heard people say that. Or is
Speaker 1: he being covered different because he apologized and he owned
Speaker 1: up to it? Which is it? All right, well, let's
Speaker 1: open up the phone lines eight hundred five eight five
Speaker 1: one five one. Why do you feel that Dana White's
Speaker 1: coverage is a little different than some of the other
Speaker 1: things that we've seen before. Is it because his wife
Speaker 1: hit him first? Is it because he's white? Is it
Speaker 1: because we haven't stressed it enough? As I said, you know,
Speaker 1: people forget Frederick Douglas said that the best power concedes
Speaker 1: nothing without a demand. So even when we say these things,
Speaker 1: like you know, mainscream media isn't covering it. You know,
Speaker 1: where's the outrage? I mean, they are covering it. What
Speaker 1: you're really asking is how come there isn't any consequences
Speaker 1: to his actions? That's what you're asking all right, we'll
Speaker 1: get to that next. Taking your calls, eight hundred five
Speaker 1: y five one oh five one is the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: Good morning, the Breakfast Club.
