I haven't watched Jeopardy since Art Fleming left the show in 1974.
I guess I'll be boycotting because I don't do TV. |

Quoted: Mike Richards, a white male, was forced to "step down" as the new host and replacement for Alex Trebek. To be fair, the vast majority of the guest hosts over the past couple of months have been white men. If Jeopardy was the problem, they would have filled the entire lineup of guest hosts with minorities, but they did not. In fact, the ONLY minorities that I can recall was Levar Burton, and that tall basketball player lady who also used to be on a morning news show or something (who was actually a pretty good host). |

I have been boycotting jeopardy for some time now. Once I started to crunch the numbers and found out that the contestants aren't equally represented compared to the racial, preferred sex and geological make up of the USA I stopped watching.
I can not support such a show with that level of bigotry. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: What kind of idiot who works in media goes on a podcast anytime in the last decade and makes jokes about fat women and Jews? Zero fucks given. Just my opinion, but I think we should care about folks getting 'removed' for exercising free speech. It is fully my belief that a corporation should be able to decide to fire anybody for any reason at all. If someone's putting a bad light on the corporation I definitely understand their desire to separate themselves from that. But if now the politically correct police are determining that someone should lose their job over we have serious fucking issues that deserve our attention. Let's not forget, the people complaining about stupid shit are usually pretty uninformed, and are happy with that. |

I love when comedians push the envelope and exercise their 1A. That's what makes a lot of comics funny, they take something to the extreme, or they make fun of societal norms. Some of the funniest bits in history would get the comedian canceled today. Red Foxx, Chevy Chase, Flip Wilson, Eddie Murphy, Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, etc. would have been canceled before getting famous. Kevin Hart was removed from Academy awards for an old joke. Watch some of the old Rat Pack movies and clips. The joking between Sammy Davis Jr. and the others would be considered extremely offensive today. Never mind the sexism and misogyny in their songs and movies. |

SJW crap aside, the person hosting an intellectual quiz show has to have a certain level of intelligence to explain wrong answers, partial answers and understand right answers. The only place SJW crap would equal higher intelligence is in some communist fantasy land. |

They're trying to ride on Alex Trebek's coat tails and it's not working.
Jeopardy needs to go away and return a year or so later with a new look but the same basic format. |
