Sesame Place Reacts to Allegation of Racism
The park has promised to provide bias training even though they deny that the viral incident was racially motivated. The video showed a Sesame character, Rosita, appearing to snub two black girls. “We sincerely apologize to the family for their experience in our park on Saturday; we know that it’s not ok. We will conduct training for our employees so they better understand, recognize and deliver an inclusive, equitable and entertaining experience to our guests,” the park said in a statement.
Okay so we better see some black kids get hugs pronto.

These beautiful young Black girls better be able to give the real Rosita a high five on the real @sesamestreet set in an actual episode by the time this is all said and done. Jim Henson would be beyond mortified by this. https://t.co/5JRE6Zzfk2

Trump Backs Saudi Tour
Trump posted on TRUTH that golfers sticking by the “very disloyal” PGA will regret it. He said they “will pay a big price when the inevitable MERGER with LIV comes, and you get nothing but a big “thank you” from PGA officials who are making Millions of Dollars a year. If you don’t take the money now, you will get nothing after the merger takes place, and only say how smart the original signees were. Good luck to all, and congratulations to really talented Cam Smith on his incredible WIN!”
Wait five minutes. They’ll be out too.

Sylvester Stallone Posts Very Unflattering Image of 93 Year Old Rocky Producer
Stallone called the image “flattering” in his post, but the sketch shows Irwin Winkler with the body of a snake, reptilian skin, and the blade of a massive knife coming out of his mouth, so…maybe not so flattering. The caption complained about Winkler controlling all the rights to the films Rocky and Creed. It seems Sylvester would really like to have the rights to his movie back, complaining that passing those rights on to Winkler’s kids would be unfair.
“This is a painful subject That eats at my soul , because I wanted to leave something of Rocky for my children,” he wrote.
Well if that photo doesn’t convince him to be fair….
Shouldn’t have signed those rights away Sly. Or maybe you should have kept writing good movies?
