Howard Stern's slam of Gabourey Sidibe shows Stern's stupidity

There's no doubt that Howard Stern earns his salary by making outrageous statements. But Howard Stern's slam of Gabourey Sidibe from Precious shows Stern's stupidity. On Monday, on The Howard Stern Show, said this:

"There's the most enormous, fat black chick I've ever seen. She is enormous. Everyone's pretending she's a part of show business and she's never going to be in another movie"

Now it can be said that Howard Stern's the dumbest man on the planet. First, Howard Stern's comment was made in the context of Gabourey Sidibe already having starred in a movie, that being Precious.

Second, because Howard was so busy being prejudiced against fat women, especially "fat black chicks", he turned his brain off and forgot that the role for Gabourey was already created and she played in an independent film that became a major motion picture, and won a ton of awards.

But Howard was so intent on being nasty, all of that escaped him. Howard Stern proved people who discriminate are not smart, they're stupid.

What's really awful about Stern's blast is that no one accuses him of "playing the race card" in using the term "fat black chick"; but there are those, particularly White Supremacists, who would say this blogger's playing the race card in accusing Stern of being racist.

Howard Stern was being racist.

That one of Stern's sidekicks is a black woman is of no matter.   That will not stop Howard from making a racist comment and he did so in this case. What does Gabourey Sidibe's race have to do with her weight? Why did he feel the need to say "fat black chick."

According to The New York Daily News, Sidibe has already landed another role.

In The Big C, Gabourey plays "a smart-alecky student".

It's right to hope that the writers of The Big C write an episode where Gabourey Sidibe's character tells off Howard Stern. Stern can play a role he's very familiar with: loudmouthed, stupid radio talk show host.

Stay tuned.
