Either someone at the LA Times screwed up, or the editors are trying to make Shelly Sterling look like a liar, by suggesting that she isn’t really estranged from her husband.

Thanks to A Texas Reader, who writes,
Yeah, but he was still whoring around with a black Mexican.
Usually, men of power, whether political or financial, whore around with the whitest of white women.
Like the former mayor of Los Angeles.
Like Henry Cisneros, former mayor of San Antonio.
Or consider Tiger Woods.
Ditto O.J. Simpson.
Sterling is an anomaly.
Maybe he really is demented.
This is one race where I must respectfully disagree with my learned colleague.
Look at the men he cites—none is white. Non-white men are obsessed with bedding the whitest of women. This is no longer the case with powerful whites.
Shelly Sterling says husband's remarks on race may stem from dementia

Shelly Sterling says she may eventually divorce Donald Sterling and will fight efforts to force her to sell her share of the L.A. Clippers.
In an interview with ABC's Barbara Walters, Shelly Sterling also suggested Donald Sterling is suffering from dementia, which she said could explain comments caught on tape in which he reportedly tells a female friend not to associate with black people.
[Actually, he didn’t tell her not to associate with them, just not to do so in public. And it wasn’t blacks per se, but the black men she was sleeping with, at the same time she was sleeping with him. But don’t let the facts get in the way of a good story.]
"I was shocked by what he said," she told Walters. "But I don't know why I should be punished for what his actions were."
The NBA responded to the recordings by banning Donald Sterling for life and saying it would seek to force him to sell the team. But Shelly Sterling said she sees the Clippers as part of her family legacy.
"I'm wondering if a wife of one of the owners, and there's 30 owners, did something like that, said those racial slurs, would they oust the husband? Or would they leave the husband in?" she said.
Shelly Sterling also suggested that her husband might want to transfer full ownership of the team to her. As for their future as a couple, she said she had considered divorcing him for years but has not made any final decisions.
Also Sunday, Donald Sterling sat down for an interview with Anderson Cooper, which is set to air on CNN Monday.
The interviews come more than a week after Walters talked with the woman at the center of the scandal, V. Stiviano.
Stiviano said Sterling feels alone and isolated after being banned from the NBA over recorded comments in which he tells her not to associate with black people.
[This is the second time they’re saying that, in the same brief article? Just in case readers didn’t get the memo?]
When Walters asked Stiviano if Sterling is a racist, she replied: "No, I don't believe it in my heart," according to 20/20.
She noted that Sterling, 50 years her senior, is of a different generation. She said she didn't take his comments about blacks as bigoted.
Still, she said he should apologize for what he said.
Walters said Stiviano had seen Sterling earlier and asked how he was doing.
"I think he feels very alone, not truly supported by those around him. Tormented, emotionally traumatized," she said.
[Oh, but how could he possibly feel that way?! And how much “earlier” had “Stiviano” seen him? Earlier in the year?
"I shouldn't be punished for his actions."
ReplyDeleteDonald did not even take any action. He merely voiced some comments. That is not action.
This was all a shakedown and intimidation and extortion.
ReplyDeleteThis V. Stiviano [what is her immigration status] allegedly stole $2 million from the Clippers and is using the tapes for extortion.
