Leave a comment

Omarosa Manigault-Newman is spilling tea about the alleged tape recording where President Donald Trump is using the N-word. The former Celebrity Apprentice star and White House staff  says that she thinks the footage would be leaked around midterms.

““I believe the people who have it will release it around the midterms.” She adds, “Soon, I believe we will hear them.”

Omarosa claims the tape was recorded when he was hosting NBC’s The Apprentice. But of course, Trump denied claims that he ever used the word.

This will be entertaining to watch unfold.

New York Times Confuses Angela Bassett for Omarosa

Leave a comment

Early versions of the New York Times highlighted a photograph Tiffany Haddish and Angela Bassett giving Rachel Brosnahan her Emmy for outstanding lead actress in a comedy, with a caption in which Bassett is recognized as Omarosa Manigault Newman.

Eagle-eye readers were quick to point it out. “oh my god the New York Times mixed up Angela Bassett with Omarosa,” tweeted Buzzfeed reporter Julia Reinstein.

The Times immediately reacted to her, tweeting, “We regret running an incorrect caption from a photo wire service in some early print editions. We will issue a correction in tomorrow’s paper.”

Agence France-Presse, the wire service initially in charge of the incorrect caption, has since fixed the mistake.

It’s a long-running joke within the Black community that not all folks look alike, but that didn’t stop the vaunted New York Times for making a major gaffe in that department. The newspaper confused actress Angela Bassett with former President Trump crony Omarosa.

Page Six reports:

Early editions of the New York Times featured a photo Tiffany Haddish and Angela Bassett presenting Rachel Brosnahan with her Emmy for outstanding lead actress in a comedy, with a caption in which Bassett is identified as Omarosa Manigault Newman.

Eagle-eyed readers were quick to jump on the gaffe.

“oh my god the New York Times mixed up Angela Bassett with Omarosa,” tweeted Buzzfeed reporter Julia Reinstein.

The Times quickly responded to her, tweeting, “We regret running an incorrect caption from a photo wire service in some early print editions. We will issue a correction in tomorrow’s paper.”

The confusion has since been cleared up. But hey, NYT, not all Black folks look the same.
