TV: FOX "NEWS" never listened to Little Richard

FOX "NEWS" is a lot like a certain glossy celebrity mag of the 90s.  Year after year, it took whatever man  slept with a certain male director to get cast in the film, splashed him on the cover and pronounced him a star.  It never really took.

In the same way, FOX "NEWS" just can't get it right, no matter how hard they try.  They're not a news network, so they're never bound by facts or reality.  They are a fear network and they cast various people into roles that they just don't fit.

 

Last week, they were casting the role of a well-worn and well-used aging ingenue and went with a woman named Tracy Shannon.  She was brought on to be pathetic and garner sympathy.  Just an innocent "home maker," you understand, who had entire life turned upside down when her husband, after a decade and a half of marriage, left her and became a woman.

 

 She offered all these pathetic and uniformed opinions that no one was supposed to question because she'd suffered.  


Actually, the one suffering were the ones watching her crap.  


Her story never held up on air -- it hasn't in real life and it never will.  She wasn't an innocent.  Before they ever had children, she knew her husband cross-dressed.  They went to therapy for it.  He promised he'd stop.  Repeatedly, she caught him breaking that promise.


She insists that she "believed him several times."


No, she didn't.  She was too lazy to go to work.  She wouldn't get off her lazy ass and get a job -- true during the marriage, true today.  


It's so awful, she tells you, because her husband became a woman and her kids lost their daddy!


Anyone who thought trashy tabloid TV ended with the death of Jerry Springer has not caught FOX "NEWS."


"I think," she said in a tone indicating otherwise, "that gender is a lie."  Huh?  "I don't think that anybody can ever accomplish the goal of completely becoming the opposite sex." 


She blames the internet and a new friend in her FOX "NEWS" interview; however, in the past she's blamed others -- for example, in past interviews, she's blamed Caitlyn Jenner. 
 
In the past?  
 
Yeah, FOX "NEWS" just discovered her but, as her hagged out face makes clear, she's been around forever.  She's also not a "mother" as FOX "NEWS" billed her, she's a "grandmother."
 
She's a lazy ass who's been whining for years now.  She's never taken accountability for her own role and she never will.  But she is an anti-trans activist and has been for years -- a detail FOX "NEWS" left out as they attempted to make her Queen For A Day. 
 
 


Tracy Shannon calls the drag dossiers her “exposés,” something she compiles and sends out whenever she hears about a drag queen story hour. The event, in which drag performers read books to children, started in San Francisco four years ago to boost LGBTQ inclusivity at libraries. As its popularity grows across the country, activists like Shannon are pushing back.

Emboldened by her success in Houston, Shannon branched out. Ahead of drag queen story time in Leander this summer, she sent her “exposés” to the mayor and city council members, spreading the images among neighborhood groups and other concerned citizens she met along the way.

“We just compile this to illustrate what drag culture looks like in that city,” Shannon said. It’s easier to scare people unfamiliar with drag when the photos are racy, but Shannon insists it’s inappropriate to put kids next to any queen.

“Even if you’re the type of drag queen where you’re imitating Doris Day, and you’re not wearing scantily clad outfits exposing your latex boobs or whatever, it’s still what they’re performing, the culture they’re in,” she said. “It’s adult. It’s immersed in erotic and fetishism.”

 
 Poor sexless Tracy Shannon, she sees sex everywhere while she starves for it. March 1st of last year, Michael Murney (DALLAS OBSERVER) reported:
 

Last month, during a speech to supporters gathered in the conference room of a Hilton Garden Inn in Denton, right-wing activist Tracy Shannon threw down a challenge.

In the coming weeks and months, she and a group of fellow activists in North Texas plan to push a young adult novel into circulation in North Texas’ public libraries and local public school districts, she said. If administrators refused to include the [anti-trans] book in circulation, she said, it would constitute nothing less than political oppression and a violation of all Americans’ rights to religious freedom.

If that happened, it was the responsibility of everyone gathered that night to “raise hell," Shannon told the crowd.





Over the years, she's tried to 'soften' her image and leaves a lot of stuff out of interviews.  She instead wonders if maybe it was something she did that turned her spouse.  In most cases, we'd say no but she appears to deserve her share of blame and then some.  She's a controlling and off-putting person so we wouldn't be surprised if she didn't drive everyone out of her life.

Despite making Caitlyn Jenner the reason for her divorce in past interviews, on FOX "NEWS" last week, she explained it was the internet that was at fault and a new friend her husband met.

She also raged against estrogen.  Her spouse went on it, she explained, and she wasn't told!!!


Nor should she have been.  If her spouse didn't tell her, it wasn't the doctor's job too.
 
She's so stupid that she doesn't understand medical confidentiality.  For example, a woman tells her spouse she's pregnant.  Her doctor is not going to violate her privacy by telling her spouse.  
 
She doesn't understand the law, she doesn't understand anything.

For example, she's railed about being a "paper lesbian."  
 
 
 Huh?
 
While they were divorcing, her spouse was transitioning.  That, she insists, made her a "paper lesbian."  Oh, cool, did she meet Ellen and Portia?
 
She's offended that her spouse was able to do a name change.  She's offended by so much -- as the truly ugly usually are.
 
 
Mainly, read her interviews, she's offended that she had to get a job after the divorce.  She's laid around on her lazy ass for 15 years and now she had to get a job.  The horror!
 
But, happy ending, she quickly met another man -- while perusing dresses at Lane Bryant? -- and she marched him down the alter and went back to not working.  
 
She's a little hate merchant.  FOX "NEWS" tried to pass her off as "a Christian mother."  But a mother -- Christian or otherwise -- doesn't whine that she has to work to support her three kids.  A "Karen" does.  A Karen whines.  But a mother doesn't. 
 
 
Over 70% of mothers in the US work outside the home.  Some do so because they have no economic choice.   We'd say Tracy needs to stop bashing her ex-spouse and feel fortunate that for 15 or so years she didn't have to work, she didn't have to face the demands that most women do.  

But again, she's not a "mother."  She's a grandmother now.  She's an old and ugly woman on a mission to destroy her ex-spouse.  That's all this is about.  It's always that pathetic and that personal.

Just as she couldn't find the joy in the fact that she didn't have to work for 15 or so years, she can't enjoy today when another man's paying her bills and letting her stay home.  Two spouses have carried her lazy ass and she's not grateful.  

And she never will be. 

The tiara doesn't set well on her head but the shame cloaks her.

"If it don't fit, don't force it."  Little Richard sang it but FOX "NEWS" never heard it.

Last week, they were also trying to force Cornel West to be the Green Party's presidential nominee.

There was Laura Ingram, his "dear sister," per The King of Shuck and Jive Cornel, explaining that she couldn't understand how he could win when he was only on the ballot in "fewer than 20 states right now."  He's not on the ballot in any state.

Not only is he not a Green Party member, he's not the Green Party's nominee.  He wants to be.  He may end up being.  But there's a lot of resistance to him and his shucking and jiving within the Green Party.  They're tired of him presenting himself as their nominee.  They won't pick a nominee until the summer of next year.  They're tired of him speaking for the party -- he's not the nominee and he's not a member.  They're appalled that he's taking his tired and pathetic act to FOX "NEWS" because if anyone hates FOX "NEWS" more than Democrats, it's the Green Party.

A Green Party list-serv last week was especially critical as it called him out for telling Laura that Democrats and Republicans had to "earn the vote" with people commenting on how Cornell hasn't earned the vote of the Green Party and may not at this rate.

But there he was on FOX "NEWS" acting like he was the party's nominee and there was Laura forcing him into that role because FOX "NEWS" will always be fact-free.

Asked about his $500,00 reported debt, Cornel blamed the Democrats ("They've got good reason to be afraid.") while, if you paid attention, yes, he does owe $500,000 in taxes.  He can't manage his household budget but he wants to be president?

What we don't understand is: Why doesn't he just declare himself president?

He's declared himself the nominee of the Green Party and he's not that but so many are letting him get away with it that he should try just announcing he's President of the United States and see if he can get away with that too.
