Dr. Laura Schlessinger Say Sorry For Using N-Words: Many people talk about
Dr. Laura Schlessinger after the last radio transmission, but for all the wrong reasons.
Schlessinger, host of the syndicated
U.S. radio, using N-word several times in a recent conversation with the subscriber.
Subscribers who identified themselves as
"Jade" got into a conversation with Schlesinger that the participation of a discussion about whether, N-word was offensive.
Schlesinger said that "Black guys say that all the time" and continued to repeat the epithet several times.
Although the host of radio shows, not to extend the term of subscribers, she claimed she used it in an attempt to show how often it is used.
When the user object to re-use of N-word, Schlesinger said: "Well, then I think you're not watching HBO or listen to any black comedians.
Schlesinger is also criticized for the fact that the subscriber
"supersensitive" with racism and told her that she would not enter into interracial marriages, if she did not have a sense of humor about race a comment that later drew scorn from the Rev. Al Sharpton, who later told CNN Anderson Cooper that it was "absolutely despicable" comments.
The next day after the airing of question,
Schlessinger apologized on his site, for "formulated N-word, all the way out - more than once.
"And it was wrong. I say again - it was wrong."
Her apology is also referred to the fact that it stopped its broadcast early Tuesday, realizing that she did.
"I, I understood that he had made a terrible mistake, and was so excited I could not finish the show," Schlesinger said in its apology.
"I took myself on the air in the late hours. I had to finish the hour, because 20 minutes of dead air is not working. I'm sorry. And it just does not happen again."
Sharpton questioned the timing of an apology to Schlesinger.
"My feelings about hearing bands today is that if she was really understanding and apologetic that it can be painful, it could be said that when the caller raised the issue," said
Sharpton, when they appear on CNN AC360 on Thursday .
