There actually are "news" networks that would fire commentators that are not only racist and bigotted, but also stupid, as this woman is. No surprise that CNN is NOT one of them.
They sure seem to have some real winners there these days.
Not exactly a vast pool of talent over there at CNN, eh?
Even more alarming than Areva Martin's abject lack of talent is her obvious proclivity for labeling anyone who exceeds her own abominably low levels of capability (which would be just about everybody in the Northern Hemisphere) as a beneficiary of "white privilege," even when the object of her criticism isn't even white.
It's like she so badly wants to deploy the phrase "white privilege" that she will seek to do so even when it cannot be warranted, which is what happened here, much to her complete humiliation and embarrassment.
CNN analyst Areva Martin put herself into an awkward situation on Tuesday when she accused a black conservative radio host of operating with “white privilege.”
Sirius XM radio host and Fox News Contributor David Webb brought Martin onto his radio show to discuss diversity in media, and he noted that he has always considered his accomplishments to be more important than his skin color when applying to jobs.
Can these people be anymore nuts and hateful. It's funny really. Always going for the insult----OOPS. LOL
Heck - one of the board’s loudest & proudest blacks just told me yesterday that even though I’m Hawaiian, that’s just white as far as he’s concerned. Talk about dismissive racism - if I ain’t black I’m just white, regardless of being brown.
People should feel shame more painfully.
Wow. Skin color and eye type are somewhat similar. I guess appearance only counts.
With genetic haplotypes B O and K which are NOT European, we know that is not true.
Just another bigot being accepted and promoted because of racial over-sensitivity.
