    Yeah, based on what the VIDEO actually shows they overreacted to this to no surprise. People just love being upset... they seek it out to be angered by things. And then blame it on them.

    What did Nicole do to her face? Her plastic surgery looks freakish.

    Black women and an increasing number of black men stay on that bullshit.

    So GLAAD is demanding to Hollywood that they want to see at least 20% of primetime TV shows' regular characters be LGBT:

    This is kind of confusing because the LGBT community has always pushed back against accusations of a "gay agenda" but that's exactly what this is, it's especially odd when you consider that 20% is literally 4 times more than the actual population of LGBT in our society.

    And on twitter the demand is for 100% of the characters to be LGBTQ.

    Anyway...black women are already over-represented based on their actual numbers so you might as well do the same for gay folks.

    The Walt Disney Company: Disney Plus Has 10M Subscribers
    11/13/2019



    The Walt Disney Co. said that its Disney+ streaming service hit 10 million sign ups in the first day since its Nov. 12 launch.

    The company, led by chairman and CEO Bob Iger, has been projecting between 60 million and 90 million global streaming subscribers by 2024. One analyst recently forecast Disney+ would reach 101 million subscribers by 2025.

    The service launched in the U.S., Canada and The Netherlands with nearly 500 films and 7,500 TV episodes, followed by Australia, New Zealand and Puerto Rico on Nov. 19.

    Disney has said it expects the direct-to-consumer service to "launch in most major global markets within its first two years," including a March 31, 2020 start in markets across Western Europe, including the U.K., France, Germany, Italy, Spain.

    Amid the "streaming wars," one key focus for new entrants is reaching subscriber goals to carve out a piece of the overall direct-to-consumer video market. Iger has said he is confident the company will reach its targets. "There's only one Disney," he recently told THR. "No one can come out and have a product that's like ours, because no one's got those brands."

    Disney+ original programming in the early days includes The Mandalorian, the first-ever live-action Star Wars series; High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, the new scripted series set at the real-life East High featured in the High School Musical franchise; and The World According to Jeff Goldblum, a docuseries from National Geographic.

    More to come...

    Their server malfunctioned, so they got a lot of complaints...guess it wasn't prepared for the onslaught. SMH.

    Also heard that many movie titles have either been changed edited or movies removed completely based on the new Cancel Culture attitude. Everything from racial-toned Titles of Classics to "outdated" gender identities..

    Mo'Nique sues Netflix for discrimination because she was only offered $500,000 for one-hour comedy special when Amy Schumer got $13million for hers

    [​IMG]

    The comedian filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday alleging that she was unfairly treated because of her race.

    She claims that Netflix offered her just $500,000 in a 'talent fee' for a one-off, hour-long stand-up special in November 2017.

    Amy Schumer, however, was initially offered $11million for a similarly formatted show and ended up getting $13million after negotiations.

    She also cited the cases of male comedians including Ricky Gervais, Chris Rock and Dave Chapelle, all of whom were paid considerably more than her and Schumer.


    She is seeking unspecified damages.

    In her lawsuit, her attorneys begin by arguing that pay gap between white men and black women (who make 61 cents to the former's dollar) is not exclusive to lower paid workers and extends to Hollywood.

    WHAT NETFLIX PAID
    Jerry Seinfeld: $100million for two stand-up specials and a series of interviews

    Dave Chapelle: $60million for three specials

    Chris Rock: $40million for two specials

    Ricky Gervais: $40million for two-show deal

    Jeff Dunham: $16.5million for a one-hour special

    Amy Schumer: $13million for a one-hour stand-up special

    Mo'Nique: $500,000 for one-hour stand-up special


    More..
