it s sexism, it s everything. go haahead, paula. thank goodness for that girl. thank goodness for her. thank goodness she was able to record that. thank goodness she continued the conversation. he must have tried to cease that conversation at least ten times. i need to clarify really quickly she continued to i need to clarify. so far, this is an allegation. we don t know that she recorded it or released it. i want to be super clear can i say something. talking about the young girl who is sitting there, who allegedly, you know, gave this tape or recorded this and depositions from other mistresses who he says horrible things let s not dance around it. i m african-american. paula s african-american. donald sterling is part of, is a member of one of the most discriminated groups of people in history. there s this little thing called the holocaust. and if anyone where people were murdered. in anyone should know
i think the commissioner should do something pending the investigation. so, paula, i want to bring you in on this. what don says has to do with what we ve been talking about just since sunday. this is not the first time. as many people know, this man has a long history of questionable behavior. let s just go most recent, 2009, he was sued by the executive vice president and general manager of the clippers. the jury sided with sterling. the allegations were he was very racist and he wanted the clippers team to be composed of, quote, poor black boys from the south and a white head coach. this was settled with no admission of liability. it was all about the kinds of people that he would rent to. and it was none too sweet on his behalf, shall we say. in 2003, might be the most offensive of these allegations. the housing rights center and a group of tannants who lived in his property filed a federal lawsuit settled confidentially. here are the quotes. hiss spabices just smoke, drink
is sterling on the recording. if it is, big question what should happen? don, i m going to turn it other to you first. we re going to have to hold down the lid. because i know how you feel about this. what should happen? the guy should go. i mean, it s as simple as that. but it s not as easy to get an owner out. paula can speak to that. i think he should go. i think the commissioner should be i personally feel he should be stronger. any time there s an investigation into wrongdoing, most people are suspended or there s something that happens to them as an investigation is happening. only had about, what, 24 or 36 hours it doesn t matter. if it was not him on the tape, he would say it s not me. he has not said it s not him. he said, i am sorry for the comments attributed to me. he has not come out and said, this is not me. i think it is insulting to the players who had to go there yesterday in protest and play, to still have this man as their owner and not have any disciplinar
paula. and i would hope that, frankly, donald sterling will listen to this. maybe there s a point right now where he can decide it s time for him to come out of the nba. maybe it s time for him to say to the commissioner, rather than prolong this any more and rather than damage the clippers any more, let him sell the team and let him make the immense profit that he can make and just go sit down. because i think right now having him as a member of the board of governors of the nba and having him be the top clipper is an embarrassment not only to the league but to people everywhere. you know, the two of you both being african-american and weighing in on this topic and me throwing in the misogyny just for good measure. go to thesmokinggun.com, have a read of some of the deposition pages. what he said about another mistress that was being sued to
