Ann had the same thoughts I had, which shows how much we differ from the morality of modern culture.
I had listened to roughly eight hours of commentary on Donald Sterling and the ugly remarks he made in conversations secretly tape-recorded by his girlfriend, before I heard anyone mention a wife.HE HAS A WIFE?
Ann has an amazing amount of detail that you don't get if all you know about Donald Sterling is what you read in the papers.
The fact that this 80-year-old human-manatee, married with three children, has been openly consorting with prostitutes for decades does not account for 1 percent of the media's outrage against Sterling.
Oh, and it wasn't a secret. He sued one of his prostitutes.
About a decade ago, Sterling sued a prostitute he had been seeing, for the return of property he had given to -- as he called her -- this "$500-a-trick freak." ...
So what can we learn from the Sterling scandal?First: Boy, have morals changed! (At least among our media watchdogs.)In 1947, it was a scandal when Leo Durocher stole a married woman from her husband -- and promptly married her, even living apart pending a final divorce decree. Today, a married team owner can bring his prostitutes to games and give detailed accounts of their copulations and it's not even an issue.Second: No conclusions about race in America can be gleaned from the utterances of this repellent man.
We can also learn a lot about the sexual morals of the media. About what they consider bad and what they view with admiration. Oh, forget it, it's something we already knew.

who in the media is saying that it's ok that he has a mistress? NO ONE.
The reason why the racism is a bigger deal than the infidelity is because the majority of Sterling's team is black.
Why does everything in the news cycle have to be interpreted through such a bizarre conservative victim mentality?
