I Wish I’d Had the Guts to Predict This on the Radio!

RUSH: You know, I wish I would have predicted this last week, because I knew it was coming, but I didn’t have the guts. I’ll tell you right now: I did not have the guts to predict it. I wish I had the guts because it’s now made the news. I told some guys out in LA when I was out there last week, but I did not mention it to any of the local staff here, and now it’s happened, and it’s… (chuckles) Folks, it’s just mind-boggling as to what we are becoming, or what certain aspects of our country and culture are becoming.

Here’s the headline… Again — again — I mentioned just to a couple people, not even in the LA radio studio. I mentioned at the event that I went to the other night that I had to fly out there for, and I didn’t have the guts to predict this on the air. Here’s the headline: “There’s An Elephant In Harvey Weinstein’s Hotel Room —

“Buried beneath the sickening story of Harvey Weinstein’s abuse is another story — the problem of casting women by” how much you want to make love to them (that’s not what the story says) “and who that leaves out.” (chuckles) What do you think this might be about? (interruption) No, no, no, no, no. No, no. It’s… (interruption) Let me sum it up for you. There aren’t any black women that made the trek to Harvey Weinstein’s hotel suite; therefore, in addition to everything else this is, it’s racist. This illustrates and demonstrates the problem of African-American women being cast in Hollywood.
