My favorite station for OKC. I think she will be back.
Well. Maybe. Wiki says Bowman is his middle name.
That doesn’t matter at all, on live TV no less. You have to know this is not something that can be said.
I know a woman who (frequently called her kids in class little monkeys) ....as you can imagine thats a bad idea as inevitably one of them wont be Caucasian, and one of them wasn’t. That term is no longer used after my dissertation on the matter. Saved her a job and a stigma.
I think it’s funny, certainly not because of the content but because of the stupidity! SHERE STUPIDITY!!!!! of such a comment at all much less on live TV.
I still remember “out of his cotton picking mind”, used during a basketball game.... that didn’t go over well either all be it an easier idiom to let slip.
Either way cultural sensitivity training is in her future if she keeps her job at all.
Hell I myself am hesitant to call my coon dog a coon dog around my black friends (he’s a full blood blue tick coon hound), my other dog I’ve always called little monkey because she bounces around so much on the couch/chairs etc. I am also hesitant to call her little monkey around them. Don’t know if its right or wrong but its definitely there.

A WIN for the good guys! Alex Housden is back on the air, right now. Good decision KOCO.
I tis a good decision, someone needs to stand up to the PC pushers!
The Vanilla gorilla kept her job.
Her Moma just called and wants a piece of your a$$.
