"The View," Mass Media, and Judeophobia
The Vicious Babushka ^ | Jan. 28, 2009 | Alouette

Posted on 01/28/2009 1:08:31 PM PST by Alouette

With Jews worldwide facing an outbreak of anti-Semitism unprecedented since the days of the old Soviet Union, the trivial prattle of a gaggle of silly “yentas” on the daytime talk show “The View” is very low on my list of “stuff to be outraged about.” I do not watch this program, or television altogether, and when “The View” broadcast a program featuring actress Susie Essman promoting her new movie while repeating the most obnoxious and grotesque stereotypes about religious Jews, Chabad Jews in particular, I was asked by fellow blogger Debbie Schlussel to post a link to this program on my blog, which I did.

On this program, Susie Essman and the regular celebrities who appear on “The View,” described Chabad Hasidic women as, “ugly,” they dress funny, they have “weird and bizarre” religious customs, and they are all “ugly.” Ugly! Ugly! (Speaking of ugly) Whoopie Goldberg once appeared on the Chabad Telethon program, so she at least should have been aware of the community works they do in California, for Jews and non-Jews, but for whatever reason, maybe short term memory loss brought on by drug abuse, remained silent during Susie Essman’s ignorant rant except to nod and grin and appear to agree. This is the same Whoopie Goldberg who thought that John McCain, if elected, would re-institute slavery and send her "back" to some plantation.

Ms. Schlussel was outraged by the vicious characterizations of Chabad Jews made by the panelists on “The View,” justifiably so in my opinion. I have been asked to describe my personal reaction to this program.

UPDATE: Susie Essman "apologizes" in private phone call.

Clue-by-four for Susie: when you slander somebody on national TV, in front of millions, a personal phone call just won't "make things right." If you have enough quarters, call everybody who watched your gig on "The View."

Why is it ugly women always talk about other women being ugly? It’s the same with fat women calling someone else fat.

Yes, I was going to ask, What qualifies Suzie Essman to be a beauty contest judge?

...relating a marriage to an observant Jew to marrying a Republican

Well, what would the bitch think if the same individual was both an observant Jew and a Republican.

It turns out that many people are both.

Unbelievable racism. If they mocked Muslim women for wearing hijab and called them ugly they would be taken off the air.

Isn’t Barbara Wah-Wah Jewish? Back in the day, John Chancellor allegedly said that Barbara was “the best head in Washington.” What a bunch of no-class ho’s. Let’s all boycott ABC. I am sick of their homosexual programs!
