Today as I was driving over to my sister in laws house I found myself listening to a radio show that I had never even heard of before. The Maxwell Show. What caught my ear was the question the host kept asking people. "Who's that whore?" At first I thought he was saying "who's that door" but as the show continued I figured out that it was a game.
The host of the show was taking callers to try and guess who this so called 'whore' was. They played a clip of a mystery woman speaking about being proud to be a woman and a mother. She was saying that she believes woman to be smart, strong, and independent.
Someone finally guessed it right after about 5 callers (including 1 female caller) and the mysery 'whore' ended up being Faith Hill. A wife, a mother, and a super successfully country singer. When this caller guessed correctly, a jingle was played with a booming voice that screamed "you nailed that whore.' As I continued to listen to this chauvinistic and ignorant radio show I steamed. I couldn't believe that they actually got away with having a game on the radio calling out successful independent strong woman as whores.
I wrote down everything I heard just so I could find out what kind of asshole thinks that calling a woman a whore is funny. I looked up The Maxwell show on WMMS 100.7 FM as soon as I got home. I found their website and was absolutely floored when I saw this:
They promote their sexist agenda on a daily basis. It wasn't just some kind of fluke, let's demean a woman day, but it is an actual daily segment on their show. Unbelievable. The most horrible thing is that this kind of behavior in public gives the go ahead to young boys to treat woman poorly. This kind of show instills lack of respect. It promotes ignorance. Basically it sucks. And people listen. Amazing.
I am not quite sure where I want to go with all this. I really think I may drop Faith Hill a line and let her know that two poser's in Cleveland are calling her a whore. Yep, that's exactly what I am going to do. Anyone know how to get a hold of Miss Hill?

This pisses me off. If you can go back an edit this entry, try UN-LINKING them. They don't deserve a link back on an entry. Them Fuckers. I refuse to click on a link to them from your site. Idiots.
For sure. I just linked them so everyone could see what tools they are.
I don't know how to get a hold of Faith Hill, but I'm sure it would be pretty easy to get in touch with the National Organization for Women and let them know about this. Just imagine them descending on those 2 assholes!
That is disgusting! Ya know, how is it that there are a TON of offensive names for women but none that do justice this type of man. For that matter, men like this would probably get off on being called an asshole, prick, dickwad, or the like. My grandma was right, men can make you so mad that you wanna use one to beat another over the head. Good luck getting in touch with Faith :)
