"Alleged" racism, but also actual racism.
Biggest open secret in Los Angeles is how awful Ellen is to work for.

Wow! Another holier than though type much like a Bill Cosby. Obviously what he did is far worse but it always seems the ones who portray themselves with such arrogance under the guise of making you feel equal are the ones the scandals hit.

I've heard a lot of stuff about Ellen being an a-hole behind the scenes. Doesn't surprise me at all. Pretending to be progressive in today's social media world is very easy, but Ellen made the mistake of not realizing that you can't fake it when your actions prove the opposite.

James Fabiano, that's what popped in my head Saturday night when I saw a video detailing all the alligations.

I mean I can’t say I’m a fan of hers (not around to watch her show) but it makes you think that nobody appears to be who they are in front of the camera:

I've never like her and find nothing funny about her. I've gotten back " oh you don't like her because she's a lesbian".. uh no a shit person is a shit person

Been hearing rumors about her for years so this will be interesting. She can't dodge this anymore.

Everyone knows Ellen is a bitch, guess we're about to find out to what extent.

I've gotten back " oh you don't like her because she's a lesbian".. uh no a shit person is a shit person That was sort of the Darren Young argument in WWE. "Oh, he's gay, so you can't say anything bad about him". Bitch, if he's an asshole to people, I can say whatever I want to say about him. Who you are as a person should be the motivating factor, not your race, gender, or sexuality. Don't use any of that stuff as a shield to insults. When all this was starting out, I was a bit confused as I don't care about Ellen or follow her damn show, but the more I read it, the more I'm like, "Burn, baby, burn!"

Yeah I’ve heard rumblings of this for some time. Hopefully everything comes to light.

First I'm hearing about all the rumblings, so I won't speculate. All I know is that if anyone can be bigoted or racist while simultaneously trying to sell the image of "love everyone", that person is trash. Equality is for everyone.

It's like Kevin Spacey coming out as gay to deflect accusations against him. Or Bill Cosby trying to use the race card to dodge his rapist behavior.

Ellen has always come off so fake and disingenuine, throwing out money and prices to people and passing it off as genuine care. It feels like she's always been in it for herself and especially the reaction.
This isn't even the first stuff that's come out about Ellen it's been like a storm for the last month. Like Kimmel I'm shocked that her show is still being shown on ABC with the crapstorm that's been happening but maybe it's a matter of time and the investigation confirming these things...

I'm not surprised.
Everyone else who seemed progressive in the 90s but stalled out completely after that while society moved on without them (Rowling, Whedon, I'm looking at you) seems to have had their bullshit revealed over the last few years.

They climbed up into ivory towers as society moved on and got worse as others got better.

Maybe it's just better to just like the on camera personas and don't invest so much otherwise? Between this and, well, everything that happened over in wrestling in the last month...

So what will we get?
1) "If I offended anyone" apology 2) "I need to look at myself and do better" apology 3) Say nothing and hope this shit blows over
