Lara Spencer/GMA Mock Prince George for Liking Ballet Class

[Anonymous]

No apology from George Stephanopoulos for laughing along.

No one—and I mean NO ONE—could stand up to this purity test you all put people through.

Goodness. What she did was insensitive (but not as terrible as some of you are making it out to be), and she apologized. She doesn’t deserve to lose her job. GS doesn’t deserve to lose his job.

Some of you people are nuts!

Who cares?!

What kind of purity test? GMA has a national platform and chose to mock a 6 yr old and his love for ballet. I’m glad she apologized on-air. She needed to apologize. I’m not sure many people called for her resignation. I didn’t think she needed to resign. Not sure why Stephanopoulos didn’t apologize for guffawing at her remarks.

That was Rahm Emmanuel, former Chicago Mayor and one of Bill Clintin’s inner circle (along with Stephanopoulos). George S really sucks — no apology from him for laughing at what Lara said on-air. His laughing along was just as bad. Sorry PP, no one heard him say “God for him.” Like that overrides his going along with the mocking. I cannot stand him. What a jerk.

Right thanks!

The thing is that this is her general personality. Her brand is to be snarky and caustic, so I think people have had enough of her mean girl tactics.

Has anyone seen GMA today? Did Lara/George do an on-air apology?

George can be heard saying “Good for him”. What should he be apologizing for?

You can hear George Stephanopoulos laughing heartily at her comments. I never heard George say “Good for him.”

He absolutely does. Here’s the original clip. He says it at the 0:50 mark. You’re seeing edited clips that make it look worse than it was. Everyone is being manipulated into states of outrage.

Old Hag Lara Spencer needs to be fired. She is out of touch.

So he doesn't need to apologize for laughing? The ship has sailed, and he has skated by letting Lara take all the blame. He still sucks. Too bad Robin was there at the time to provide some level of decency during the segment.

This woman is coming across like the embodiment of a cringe inducing tone deaf and white woman of privilege. It’s damage control time now.

Lara? You ok?

In the mid-1980s, I was in law school with a Cleveland Browns Linebacker who did ballet and water aerobics for balance. Maybe he should have a "chat" with Lara and her devotees.

Not Lara, not a fan, I don’t even like GMA and never watch it. I’m just very attached to truth and facts, and it bothers me that people are watching edited clips and thinking they are reality. This is another stupid manufactured outrage, and it’s annoying to watch everyone fall for it. It does not bode well for our country’s future, when people accept these sorts of things so uncritically, and don’t care that what actually happened might be different than what they are being shown.

Today it’s Lara on GMA which is really inconsequential, but the implications for our politics is incredibly disturbing and people should be concerned.

You never learned that two wrongs don’t make a right? I was shocked that she’d react the way she did about a 5 yr old future King of England taking ballet but attacking her with ugly words and not addressing the actual issue is really bad form. And it’s the president’s MO.
