[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lara called Travis Wall, famous choreographer, to apologize.  Looks like she will do some sort of segment this morning on male dancers:

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

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

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.

Lara?  You ok?[/quote]

:roll:  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. [/quote]

I am OP, and I also posted the direct, unedited segment from GMA segment around page 2 of this thread.  I did listen for the “Good for him” comment from Stephanopoulos, and you are right, he does say that.  However, he continues to heartily laugh at Lara’s comments, especially as she delivers her “punchline.”  THAT is what dancers and their supporters remember about Stephanopoulos and negates whatever he said earlier.

The clips people have been sharing are unedited, as the viral spreading of the direct segment from GMA were shared via Twitter and Instagram.  Lara did say those things and apologized, so good for her.  Stephanopoulos did laugh along with her and didn’t apologize, so shame on him.   I have not seen the “edited” segments to which you allude.  And there is no need for you to paint people who reacted negatively to this incident as lacking all the facts and embracing half-truths.[/quote]
