I LOVE my colleague and this racist bs WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!
(also I literally commented in the control room how cute your hair looked today so this ding dong is like...the dingiest of dongs)
I received a disgusting email this evening after going live. Itโs really a shame that people take the time to spew hate, but itโs the world we live in and we have to call it out. This is why representation matters! Iโll keep being ME, proudly, on tv everyday ๐
For years some of us have fiercely fought to create a less racist, more humane KY w/ modern sensibilities. Iโm sorry to report we are losing, badly. We may have already lost. Currently, I donโt see a path forward. It may be time for us to start making plans to leave this place.๐
I recently learned that my son took one of my longterm (25< years) screen names as his Discord handle. First I was annoyed but he called it "an homage" so how could I be? Now I'm imagining a future where each generation of Bells has a thatkidicarus. I'm only the first of my name.
As I waited to go live during a driving rain, my son @maxwellmeiners, a director back at the station, said into my IFB: "Remember all those times you told me to study hard so I didn't have to work outside? Who's the smart guy now?" #media#weather#parenting#truestory@WHAS11
