Whoopi Goldberg has been allowed to keep her job on The View despite growing demands to be fired for claiming that the Holocaust 'was not about race' and let off with an on-air apology despite growing calls for her to be fired.The 66-year-old host on Monday sparked international outrage and offense by claiming the Holocaust was not about race because Jews and Nazis are 'two groups of white people.' She then issued a Twitter apology, but later doubled down on her comments on Stephen Colbert's late show.Many - including ABC staffers - called for her to be fired

Let's stop pretending. What Whoop does is not work and it is not a JOB. She gets paid to be there BECAUSE she was a successful actress and is a black loudmouth, i.e., the quintessential ABM (angry black woman).

The only place where most see The View are doctors’ and medical establishments’ waiting rooms, where they are temporarily held prisoner by the viewing choices of the receptionists.

Woofi's got job security, because to fire her would be condemned as racist. Kind of like Kaep, when he started kneeling during the national anthem.
I'm not convinced that a woke-style hashtag campaign accomplishes anything. But #DumbAssWhoopi could offer a modicum of catharsis.

Whoopi's lucky to have been kept on staff but also to have avoided a huge fine and/or worse censure. Not many former comic-turned-philosopher has-beens could have landed on their feet like she did. No credit for graciousness can be applied to her for the not-her-own-words apology.

I agree that there are different standards for black & white and for liberal and conservative, but I wouldn't fire her. Not anymore than I would fire a white man who said something stupid.
Fear of firing can only lead to more Groupthink and fear of speaking out, leading to a complete lack of opinion.
If viewers get fed up they will tune out. Let the market decide.

Once upon a time. Whoopi was intellectually honest. Then she became a successful actress.
Hollywood turns normal people into moronic loons.

We are awash in liberal opinionated idiots that keep their jobs.
But most of them don't have a microphone and a national audience.

Is there anyone that really believed she would suffer the consequences? If so, then I have some land to sell you.

Hmmm. So now is "Jewish" a "race"?
It never was before. But in these completely insane times.....facts are entirely flexible things. Red can be yellow tomorrow. Steel can be wood, boys can be girls,
LITERAL insanity.
And I believe NONE of it.

If you ever wondered if there are different rules for liberals and conservatives here is your proof. Nothing will happen to her despite her anti-semitism and blatant racism.

The ADL is the Antisemitic Democrat League. It exist to give cover for Democrats and call people racist.
The ADL outreach lady, a Ms. Smith, hates Israel and supports Arab terrorists.

What she didn't say but was thinking:
It's a white people problem, not my concern.

#19 might want to read up on the holocaust a bit. Hitler considered the Jews to be a separate race.

Just more of the same when a left leaning liberal progressive says something stupid. If she was a black conservative she would have been suspended, then let go. "Tis better to be silent and thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt." Abraham Lincoln.

And it's the loudest and the rich black celebrities that keep complaining about blacks being oppressed and discriminated against in AMERICA. Blacks in AMERICA are treated as first-class citizens today, and it's by choice that they are where they should be.
