Man…not all Black women look alike, but that didn’t stop the “New York Times” from confusing folks.
After Monday night’s broadcast of the Emmys, the Times published a faulty article of the winners, losers, presenters, and more. In the write-up, the writer for some reason, mistook the queen Angela Bassett for former staunch President Trump supporter, Omarosa Manigault Stallworth.
Which let us be clear: The fired White House staffer was never even at the Emmy awards. But we digress.
Take a look at the blasphemy the took to PRINT:

Thankfully, the Times apologized for the serious mix-up:
While the coveted newspaper tried to make amends, this faux-pas is way too much. This is why we need more Black journalists working at that newspaper.
Word.
