Hey today, I just 13 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: want to get right to it because this has really 14 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 1: been pressing me. I woke up and this was on 15 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: my mind and I wanted to share it with you 16 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: because I know this for a fact. See I've lived 17 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: this for a fact, and you know the majority of 18 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:37,399 Speaker 1: things I talk about in the morning before we get 19 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: started with the regular show. It's something that I've experienced. 20 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: I can only tell you what I know. And so 21 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: I've really really understood why God has had my life 22 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: go the way that is gone, because if I didn't 23 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: have all these tests in my life, I didn't have 24 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: all these tests that I passed, all these tests that 25 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: I failed. If I didn't have all of those the 26 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: good and the bad, what could I share with you 27 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: in the morning? What could I tell you about hanging? 28 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: What could I tell you about failing and then winning? 29 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: What could I tell you about hanging in now when 30 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: all hope was gone? How could I share that with you? 31 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: Unless I've had those moments myself. I don't care what 32 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: happens to you. I don't care what you're going through. 33 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: Don't you dare dare give up? Under no circumstances. Don't 34 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: you dare dare ever give up? It is the biggest 35 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: trick that the enemy has is making us think we 36 00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: ain't gonna make it, to water down the illusion that 37 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: there is a possibility that you might still have a 38 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: chance to get over. The biggest trick he uses is 39 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: when you make a mistake and you fall. He gets 40 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: you to start to thinking it's final, that there is 41 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: no resurrection, there is no redemption, there is no recovery. 42 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: He just makes you think it's final. He is the 43 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: master deceiver. Don't you dare dare ever give up? I 44 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: don't care what besets you, befalls you, trips you up, 45 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: what circumstantial situations may arise. Don't you dare dare ever 46 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: give up? Because listen to me, these are tests that 47 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: you are going through. And these tests, whether you pass 48 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: the test or appears that you've failed the test, the 49 00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: test accomplishes the mission if you're smart about it. If 50 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: you pass the test. Let's say you're going through a 51 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: situation and you get over and it goes the way 52 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: you want it to do, then what you've learned is 53 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: if you hang in there, there's a light at the 54 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: end of the tunnel. Okay, mission accomplished. If you fail 55 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 1: the test and it doesn't go the way you want 56 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: it and it goes the opposite and it turns out 57 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: into a negative result, and in response you were looking 58 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: for is a no. That's not final. That doesn't mean 59 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: it's over, that doesn't mean it's time to turn back. 60 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: It simply means that now you have learned a valuable experience, 61 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: you have learned a valuable lesson. You now know what 62 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: not to do. You are now because you know what 63 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: not to do, another step closer to getting it right. 64 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: Listen to me, it has to happen this way. You 65 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: have to have the rain in your life to get 66 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: the flowers in your life. You got to have the 67 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,679 Speaker 1: darkness in your life to appreciate the sunshine in your life. 68 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: You got to have woes and worries to appreciate the joys. 69 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: It is merely a test. So when you get through failing, 70 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 1: and you get through stumbling, and you get through messing 71 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: it up, all that's getting you one step closer to 72 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: getting it right. Oh, my relationship ended. I'll never be 73 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: able to find another person like that. Not only will 74 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: you not be able will not only will you be 75 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: able to find a person like that, you can find 76 00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 1: a person that far better than that if you don't 77 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 1: give up. But see, sometimes you got to go through 78 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: the bad ones to get to the good ones. Don't 79 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: you dare dare ever give up? I don't care what 80 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: happens to you if you lose a love one. And 81 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: Lord knows, I've lost some people I've loved dearly with 82 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: every inch in me. I've lost my mother, my father, 83 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: my brother, and my best friend. I don't know.

And I just decided the biggest 171 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: mistake I made was walking down the street commenting I 172 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: should stay on the wall.

I 180 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: can't problem with see that, all right, I'll go first, 181 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: just off the top of my head, Steve, Uh, do 182 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: you ever think and I don't know if I've asked 183 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 1: you this lately, but do you ever think we'll have 184 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: another black president anytime soon? Uh? Not too soon. It 185 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: definitely won't have one in this election. They coun cored gone, 186 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: So no, we're not gonna have one this election. So 187 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, you know, uh, the the best thing, you know, 188 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I just don't want Donald Trump to be 189 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: president no more. But I have a sinking feeling the 190 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: way this country is turning that they're going to reelect 191 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 1: him unless we we have to get out in massive numbers. 192 00:14:53,320 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean like massive number Obama. Yeah. The rest of 193 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: my answers is gonna be ignorant. Come on, all right, 194 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: if you were a comedian, what other profession would you do? 195 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: And why? I would be a junior high or high 196 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: school basketball coach. I would love to coach on the 197 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: college level, but cuss too much. And that's and I 198 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: would do that because I like shaping young boys thoughts, 199 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: processing lives, and being that coach would help me be 200 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: a father figure to a lot of young men. Okay, 201 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: great answer. Oh I like that, And I got one. 202 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: I got one.

Thank you for all the prayers. 406 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: We definitely need them. We are completely devastated by the 407 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: sudden loss of my adoring husband, Kobe, the amazing father 408 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: of our children, and my beautiful sweet Gianna, a loving, 409 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: thoughtful and wonderful daughter and amazing sister to Natalia, Bianca 410 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: and Capri.

This is a trip with 458 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: the news, and there is a lot of it these days. 459 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: President Trump signed his revamped version of the North American 460 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: Free Trade Agreement yesterday. He said it was the fulfillment 461 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: of a campaign promise. This is a colossal victory for 462 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: our farmers, ranchers, energy workers, factory workers, and American workers 463 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: in all fifty states. And you can almost say beyond 464 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: because it's all beyond. This is all over the world, 465 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: even though it's at one beautiful border. Trump's calling in 466 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: a momentous, historic, and joyous occasion. While experts say the 467 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: difference between the original after agreement and the written one 468 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: that Trump wanted actually is minimal. Minimal, however, is not 469 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: the way Trump sees what's going on in Capitol Hill, apparently, 470 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 1: where he's hoping that Republican senators hold a line against 471 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: Democrats and refuse to impeach him. Maybe I'm being just 472 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: nice to him because I want their vote. Does that 473 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: make sense. I don't want to leave anybody out. Hey, Congressman, 474 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: I already got your vote, one six to nothing. The 475 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: hell with you, Yeah, President saying that senators were going 476 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: to continue submitting written questions for each other today and 477 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: in a day or two, maybe just tomorrow, vote on 478 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 1: whether to allow new testimony to represent it in a 479 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: Trump's impeachment trial. That's something the president does not want. 480 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,359 Speaker 1: Authorities investigating the helicopter crash to kill Kobe Bryant's daughter 481 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 1: and seven others say the coptor was not equipped with 482 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: something called a crash warning device because one wasn't required, 483 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 1: Officials say, though it's not clear as to whether having 484 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: one would have saved lives, but they say there wasn't 485 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: one on there.

Courting to BuzzFeed News, 497 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,439 Speaker 1: Sociated Press says that a black cop in Maryland shot 498 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: and killed a man who was sitting inside his police 499 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: cruiser with his arms handcuffed behind his back. That cop 500 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: has been charged shooting not caught on body camera, but 501 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: the victim was African American. Also, students at Ball State 502 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 1: in Indiana walked out of class early this week to 503 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 1: protest the professor who actually called the police on a 504 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: black student who simply didn't want to change his seat 505 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,800 Speaker 1: from where he was.

Now back to 509 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to show, Yogatti 510 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 1: and jay Z's Rock Nation are continuing to put pressure 511 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 1: on Mississippi officials to address the deplorable conditions of the 512 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: state's prisons. We talked about this story a couple of 513 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: weeks ago. Rock Nations Social Justice Armed Team Rock recently 514 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 1: shared footage showing just how bad things are in the 515 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: state pen. Videos and pictures taken by inmates show filthy 516 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 1: facilities and unchecked violence, including a knife fight between two inmates. 517 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,320 Speaker 1: In response, the Governor of Mississippi, Tate Reeves, as vowed 518 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 1: to shut down the Parchment Farms unit of the prison. Still, 519 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: it's unclear of Reeves fully comprehends the situation, considering it 520 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: was only a few days ago that he was trying 521 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: to blame possession of contraband cell phones for the recent violence. 522 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: Team Rock Nation and its attorneys aren't just trying to 523 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: shine a spotlight on the situation. Tim Rock has contacted 524 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice and they want protective orders to 525 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 1: keep inmates safe. That's so interesting that miss Mississippi Governor 526 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,400 Speaker 1: Tate Reads blames the murders and deaths at Parchment on 527 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 1: inmates with cell phones. Our response to that is, had 528 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 1: it not been for the inmates with the cell phones, 529 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: no one would even know the conditions of the prison. Okay, yeah, 530 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: well I agree with that. So his response is if 531 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 1: they didn't have illegal cell phones, no one would know 532 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 1: the conditions that he's blaming the murders and the deaths 533 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: on the inmates with the cell phones. That's why ain't 534 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: doing Yeah, yeah, that's what it's saying, sir. Sir. First 535 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: of all, let me help you understand something about the 536 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 1: judicial system. You cannot a cell phone in without your 537 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: guard's help. True, your guards are making money by bring 538 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 1: You can't bring a cell phone in without the guard's help. 539 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: So your guards know that they can make money by 540 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: bringing in the phones. They do all of that for 541 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: money themselves. It's supplying demand. So for you to dump 542 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: that on the inmates, the inmates can't get it without 543 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: your guards, Pardner. The inmates go nowhere to buy phones, 544 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: but no one wouldn't know that if you didn't have 545 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 1: the phones. So White y'all wouldn't even be talking to 546 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 1: us if they didn't have the ability to film it. 547 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 1: What he's the governor.

Subject to my husband 774 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:19,960 Speaker 1: is scared of his family. Dear Stephen, surely, I've been 775 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:23,719 Speaker 1: married to a wonderful man for almost three years. It's 776 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:27,799 Speaker 1: his second marriage and my first. Everything is fine with us, 777 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 1: except the fact that his mom and his aunts don't 778 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:33,400 Speaker 1: like me. My husband has never tried to fix this 779 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:36,279 Speaker 1: problem because I think he's scared of the women and 780 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:39,400 Speaker 1: his family. Recently, things got out of hand and my 781 00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:42,840 Speaker 1: feelings were hurt. Here's what happened. His mom had a 782 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:46,400 Speaker 1: sixtieth birthday party and I didn't want to go, but 783 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,840 Speaker 1: my husband insisted that I go. When we got to 784 00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 1: the party, his mother gave me a fake smile and 785 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:56,239 Speaker 1: barely spoke. His aunts avoided me, so they wouldn't have 786 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:58,759 Speaker 1: to speak to me. My husband and I sat with 787 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:02,279 Speaker 1: his family, and they only talked to him the whole time. 788 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 1: I was not at all surprised to see his ex 789 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 1: wife and daughter there seated at the table right next 790 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 1: to us. His mother spoke to him but ignored me. 791 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,279 Speaker 1: His daughter spoke to him but ignored me. His ex 792 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:18,719 Speaker 1: wife didn't speak to either of us. I told him 793 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 1: that I will not be ignored by a child, and 794 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 1: I was uncomfortable and ready to leave. He said I 795 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 1: couldn't go because it would cause unnecessary drama. Then this big, 796 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: burly aunt Anne stood up to give a toast. She 797 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 1: thanked the family for coming, and she turned to my 798 00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:38,280 Speaker 1: husband's ex wife and told her that she will always 799 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 1: be an important part of their family. At that point, 800 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 1: I walked out. My husband came behind me and I 801 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:49,719 Speaker 1: made him take me home. We fussed and cussed all 802 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: the way home, and he said that he can't go 803 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:54,880 Speaker 1: against his family, and I knew they didn't like me 804 00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,879 Speaker 1: when we got married. We're not speaking and I want 805 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 1: to go upside his head. Every time I think of 806 00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 1: what he said to me. I want to cus his out. 807 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:06,799 Speaker 1: His aunt out too. Did I handle this all wrong? 808 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 1: How can we fix things so that this doesn't keep 809 00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:16,480 Speaker 1: affecting our marriage? Please help? Wow? All right, we meaning 810 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,600 Speaker 1: you and him, don't need to fix anything. Okay, he 811 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 1: needs to fix this. This is his rude, ignorant family. 812 00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 1: And with marriage, you know, he's supposed to stick with 813 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:30,520 Speaker 1: and support you. You are his wife, leave and cleave, 814 00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 1: that's what he's supposed to do. I mean, if I 815 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 1: were you, I probably wouldn't go to another family outing 816 00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 1: or event that they had until he has a family 817 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 1: meeting and tells them to stop disrespecting you. I mean, 818 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 1: you called him a wonderful man, wonderful man in the 819 00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:48,280 Speaker 1: opening line of your letter, and that's what a wonderful 820 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: man would do. He would talk to his family, find 821 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:52,880 Speaker 1: out what the problem is, and try to resolve it 822 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 1: so you would be comfortable. I'm sure though, that you 823 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,560 Speaker 1: left out a good poor and of the details in 824 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,040 Speaker 1: this letter, like why he got divorced. You know, what 825 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 1: was that all about? How you guys met, Why his 826 00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,359 Speaker 1: folks don't like you? Because he said you knew they 827 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:14,360 Speaker 1: didn't like you when you guys got married. So I 828 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 1: think there's more to this story. I think that information 829 00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 1: would be really helpful in this situation. Do they just 830 00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,520 Speaker 1: not like you or is there a reason they don't 831 00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 1: like you. I'm not saying it's your fault, but you know, 832 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 1: we definitely need a little more information. Okay, but I 833 00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:33,960 Speaker 1: think you know he should check them about how they 834 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 1: treat you. I definitely think that, Steve, Well, I don't 835 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:47,120 Speaker 1: know where to start with this best right here, Well, 836 00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 1: you're definitely going to get ready to say something crazy. 837 00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 1: I've been married to this wonderful man for three years, 838 00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:59,200 Speaker 1: his second marriage, my first. Everything fine would accept the 839 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 1: fact that his mama and it's fat ass hunch don't 840 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 1: like me. She didn't say that, she said big and bird. 841 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 1: I bet there is, though they caught me some of 842 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 1: the most evil people. And don't tell me you're fat 843 00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 1: shaming and all that, cause I ain't. My husband has 844 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:20,960 Speaker 1: never tried to fix this problem because I think he's 845 00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 1: scared of the women in his family. I told you 846 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:27,360 Speaker 1: they was big. I said that earlier, and then you say, 847 00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:29,920 Speaker 1: I think he's scared of Why you think he's scared 848 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: because of the size. Recently things got out of hand 849 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:36,960 Speaker 1: and my feelings what hurt he was would happen his 850 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 1: mama had a sixtieth birthday, So I would just like 851 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:42,440 Speaker 1: to say, as a sixty three old man, your mama 852 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 1: in law as younger than I am, and they throw 853 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:49,400 Speaker 1: in parties and that's cool, but I don't have people 854 00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:51,920 Speaker 1: over the house and stuff like that no more.

She responded to another 1147 01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:41,679 Speaker 1: young lady, Felicia Sonmez, who is a national political reporter 1148 01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:46,200 Speaker 1: for the Washington Post, who tweeted some really nasty, derogatory 1149 01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:50,280 Speaker 1: things about Kobe Bryant just a couple of hours after 1150 01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:54,639 Speaker 1: everyone found out that he had passed away. Now, Lindsay Granger, 1151 01:19:54,720 --> 01:19:57,280 Speaker 1: the journalist, is on a talk show it's called The 1152 01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,160 Speaker 1: Daily Beast Live, and we gotta take a listen to 1153 01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:02,880 Speaker 1: what she has to what she had to say in 1154 01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:07,479 Speaker 1: response to what this woman, Felicia's sons tweeted about Kobe, 1155 01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:10,600 Speaker 1: and Felicia's Sonmez, by the way, has been placed on 1156 01:20:10,680 --> 01:20:14,160 Speaker 1: administrative leave. Take a listen to this. I'm looking at 1157 01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:17,040 Speaker 1: the journalist Felicia, and she is somebody who has gone 1158 01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:19,479 Speaker 1: through sexual assault herself, and she said that in the 1159 01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:21,679 Speaker 1: Washington Post. She released an article a couple of years 1160 01:20:21,680 --> 01:20:24,840 Speaker 1: ago detailing her experience. So, as a journalist, which is 1161 01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:26,160 Speaker 1: not what we do. We are a talk show with 1162 01:20:26,240 --> 01:20:28,400 Speaker 1: a brit And I was a journalist for ten years 1163 01:20:28,479 --> 01:20:31,080 Speaker 1: prior to taking the shop. So as a journalist, it's 1164 01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:33,280 Speaker 1: our job to objectively report the news. I know that 1165 01:20:33,320 --> 01:20:36,000 Speaker 1: that would be tough of your someone who survived sexual assault. 1166 01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:37,920 Speaker 1: But when I'm looking at this story, she didn't give 1167 01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:40,040 Speaker 1: the story any context. And she got upset that she 1168 01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:42,160 Speaker 1: was being attacked on Twitter for tweeting a link that 1169 01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:45,519 Speaker 1: basically was condemning Kobe's character and accusing him of rape. 1170 01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:47,800 Speaker 1: But I think her job as a journalist was to 1171 01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:50,400 Speaker 1: put that in context. You have the responsibility and you 1172 01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:53,040 Speaker 1: need to have the journalistic acumen to write the full story. 1173 01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:55,080 Speaker 1: Go to the Washington Post and say, this man is 1174 01:20:55,120 --> 01:20:57,880 Speaker 1: a nuanced character. This man has a detailed, layered history 1175 01:20:57,920 --> 01:20:59,800 Speaker 1: that we need to discuss. But don't just tweet that 1176 01:20:59,800 --> 01:21:02,599 Speaker 1: out and be the political reporter for the Washington Post 1177 01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:04,880 Speaker 1: and tweet that and leave it there, because you're leaving 1178 01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:07,120 Speaker 1: yourself open to the attacks that you're now receiving. And 1179 01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:08,840 Speaker 1: so whether or not she should be fired, you know, 1180 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:10,320 Speaker 1: I think that she should be put on leave like 1181 01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:12,800 Speaker 1: she was. I think it's inappropriate because we're in a 1182 01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:15,320 Speaker 1: time where we don't know what journalism is anymore. We 1183 01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:18,000 Speaker 1: have our president that attacks journalists, we have TMZ that 1184 01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:20,920 Speaker 1: broke the news to Vanessa Bryant that her husband passed away. 1185 01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:22,760 Speaker 1: You know, what are we doing now that we need 1186 01:21:22,800 --> 01:21:25,040 Speaker 1: to look at ourselves, people who call themselves journalists. We 1187 01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:27,479 Speaker 1: have journalists attacking a seven year old child which is 1188 01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:30,240 Speaker 1: blue ivy, and we look at them calling out her characteristics. 1189 01:21:30,520 --> 01:21:32,680 Speaker 1: We need to do better all together as journalists. And 1190 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:34,200 Speaker 1: I look at this woman and I say, it was 1191 01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:36,680 Speaker 1: your responsibility just to do better and give it more 1192 01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:39,160 Speaker 1: time than two hours after the man passes away, to 1193 01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:41,600 Speaker 1: say what you think about him, if it's negative, and 1194 01:21:41,680 --> 01:21:44,679 Speaker 1: you know, don't hide behind somebody else's article. I stand 1195 01:21:44,720 --> 01:21:47,320 Speaker 1: behind a journalist named Jillian Sheldon. She sat at that 1196 01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:50,320 Speaker 1: Kobe trial for six weeks. She followed it in Colorado, 1197 01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:53,200 Speaker 1: in and out, stayed there, interviewed all the lawyers, interviewed 1198 01:21:53,200 --> 01:21:55,120 Speaker 1: the woman who was accusing him, and she said, how 1199 01:21:55,200 --> 01:21:57,640 Speaker 1: can we you someone's worst stay on this earth as 1200 01:21:57,680 --> 01:22:01,160 Speaker 1: a referendum on their character in totality, And we can't 1201 01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:03,760 Speaker 1: because just like Kobe, we all have flaws that we're 1202 01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:06,320 Speaker 1: all layered individuals. And we've seen the story time and 1203 01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:08,400 Speaker 1: time again too many times when it's a black man 1204 01:22:08,479 --> 01:22:10,560 Speaker 1: and a white woman that's an accuser. When that's the 1205 01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:12,280 Speaker 1: story and it goes down and he just goes and 1206 01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:14,880 Speaker 1: gets convicted by the public jury and We've seen the 1207 01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:17,040 Speaker 1: story too many times where women who are who have 1208 01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:19,880 Speaker 1: been sexually assaulted cannot give their voice to the public 1209 01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:21,880 Speaker 1: and give are not given the space they need to 1210 01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:24,120 Speaker 1: share their story. So this is a complicated thing to 1211 01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:26,240 Speaker 1: talk about. But I really think that as a journalist, 1212 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:27,759 Speaker 1: if you're going to take that name, in that stance 1213 01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:30,320 Speaker 1: and that dignity of a position, you should probably do 1214 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:33,000 Speaker 1: it properly and just try to tell the complicated story 1215 01:22:33,080 --> 01:22:35,240 Speaker 1: with as much care as possible. And that goes for 1216 01:22:35,320 --> 01:22:43,200 Speaker 1: everybody involved in this Kobe situation. Wow, who yet, I don't. 1217 01:22:43,240 --> 01:22:45,639 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know how I could possibly follow 1218 01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:48,880 Speaker 1: that with any information. I think she had it spot on. 1219 01:22:49,560 --> 01:22:53,240 Speaker 1: You know the thing of it now, since we're closing, 1220 01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:59,280 Speaker 1: journalists are really supposed to be fair and impartial, and 1221 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:05,280 Speaker 1: journalists are supposed to report the facts to us. But 1222 01:23:05,479 --> 01:23:09,880 Speaker 1: two things have happened. First of all, we have social media, 1223 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:13,759 Speaker 1: which is main focus now is no longer on truth 1224 01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:20,160 Speaker 1: or facts, but on eyeballs and views and likes and comments, 1225 01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:24,120 Speaker 1: and the more clicks you can get, the more valuable 1226 01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:27,800 Speaker 1: you can become. So now we have found a way 1227 01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:33,360 Speaker 1: to monetize evilness. We have found a way to not 1228 01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:37,240 Speaker 1: be truthful and make money off of it. We have 1229 01:23:37,439 --> 01:23:40,160 Speaker 1: now found a way that you don't have to report 1230 01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:43,160 Speaker 1: the facts as long as you report something and you 1231 01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:48,160 Speaker 1: make it so interesting enough or is usually so dark enough, 1232 01:23:48,680 --> 01:23:55,559 Speaker 1: are so you know, exasperated and and and inflamed news 1233 01:23:55,640 --> 01:24:00,799 Speaker 1: reports that it draws eyeballs. That's one thing. The second 1234 01:24:00,840 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 1: thing that we have going on in this country is 1235 01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:07,320 Speaker 1: that we now have a president who berates people in 1236 01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:13,680 Speaker 1: the media, who applauds his staff when they put journalists 1237 01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:20,080 Speaker 1: in their place for asking perfectly legal questions. So, now 1238 01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:24,479 Speaker 1: from the top, for those of you who voted for Trump, 1239 01:24:24,840 --> 01:24:27,920 Speaker 1: for those of you who support Trump, who think that 1240 01:24:28,040 --> 01:24:32,400 Speaker 1: he's great for this country, this was your vote that 1241 01:24:32,600 --> 01:24:37,240 Speaker 1: has now allowed this type of behavior to act itself 1242 01:24:37,360 --> 01:24:42,720 Speaker 1: out in the White House. That's your vote. Did that? Now? 1243 01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 1: I get tired of us turning around and somehow making 1244 01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:53,160 Speaker 1: it our fault. Because he lost the general election, they 1245 01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:57,200 Speaker 1: say upwards of four million votes, somewhere between three and 1246 01:24:57,280 --> 01:25:00,720 Speaker 1: four million votes. He lost the popular vote, he won 1247 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:04,680 Speaker 1: the electoral so enough people turned out to vote to 1248 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:07,640 Speaker 1: keep him from being president. But because we have this 1249 01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:13,280 Speaker 1: old archaic system called the electoral college, vote. He's the president. 1250 01:25:14,439 --> 01:25:18,840 Speaker 1: But this man who is in office, I ask people 1251 01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:22,640 Speaker 1: who vote for him, would you want your child to 1252 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:27,880 Speaker 1: be him? That, combined with social media, have the climate 1253 01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:30,880 Speaker 1: that that woman is talking about where you can report 1254 01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:34,160 Speaker 1: the news without telling the family first. And how this 1255 01:25:34,360 --> 01:25:37,000 Speaker 1: woman feels like because it was a black man's crime 1256 01:25:37,080 --> 01:25:39,639 Speaker 1: against a white woman, that she can breaate his entire 1257 01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:44,360 Speaker 1: life's work, and like God has not this thing called 1258 01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:47,680 Speaker 1: grace and forgiveness that we've all partaken of in our 1259 01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:50,280 Speaker 1: life and all of us will continue to have to 1260 01:25:50,400 --> 01:25:54,519 Speaker 1: need it until the day we die. And that's created 1261 01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:56,840 Speaker 1: this climate today. I think what the lady said was 1262 01:25:57,000 --> 01:26:03,960 Speaker 1: spotal on right on system.
