Poll of the Day > Fox News SHAMES Cosby Show Star for WORKING at TRADER JOE'S!!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

57 y/o Actor Geoffrey Owens, who played Elvin Tibideux on The Cosby Show has been SHAMED by both Fox News AND Dailymail after he was pictured working the till for $11 an hour at TRADER JOES!!

He's a cashier at the grocery chain in Clifton, New Jersey wearing an ID Badge that bears his name as the former star wore a Trader Joe's T-Shirt with stain marks and bagging groceries.

50 y/o Karma Lawrence told Dailymail she was shoppigng with her wife, 40 y/o Yanelle who saw Owens and snapped photos of him

The medical secretary said "I was just in Trader Joe's and i said to my wife, wait a minute, that's the guy from the Cosby show. She looked at him and said, it looks like him. He's a little heavier. i pulled up a site on the internet to look at a picture of him and i said, that's him. I have never seen at him Trader Joe's before. I was getting a bunch of groceries and he wan't really looking at anybody but said Have a nice day"

He played the husband of Sondra Huxtable on the final 5 seasons of the hit NBC sitcom where the main character was played by disgraced actor and sex offender, Bill Cosby
Karma said he was shocked that someone like him was working a "regular job" and figured he would be doing something different and that he felt REALLY BAD that he's gone THIS LOW

Fox News picked up the story from dailymail and MOCKED the actor who has "fallen from grace" as actors and politicians DEFENDED Owens...even NRA WENCH DANA LOESCH and hollywood nobody JAMES WOODS!!.

Geoffrey starred in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and That's So Raven and last starred in an episode of Season 2 of Lucifer when it shot in Vancouver, Canada.

Do you think Fox News was wrong to mock him?

Geoffrey -

Literally who

Fox News will whine endlessly about "liberal elitism" and then mocks a dude just for doing honest work at a grocery store for low pay.
Totally the first time they've shown themselves to be hypocritical human trash. Totally.

Hollywood nobody James Woods, lmao

It was wrong for Fox News and DailyMail to shame this dude who's just working.

Also, not that important, but is Karma a man or woman?

Kind of a dick move, tbh. Granted, I guess the fact he was working there is newsworthy if you're a tabloid?

Yeah, shame a dude who's just doing a job to provide for himself and his family.

Scumbags.

He could also be doing it just for health insurance, if Trader Joe's offers it. Kinda like how ex-NBA player and Hall of Famer Adrian Dantley is a crossing guard in Maryland for the health insurance.

Daily seems like they went out of their way to be offended by his unkempt looks, but if this is the article in question from Fox:

I'm not seeing any shaming.

I don't see the reason to publish the "story" at all if you consider your news outlet to be above the tabloid level of the dailymail.

But they weren't calling him a loser or anything, true.

That or you're trying to fill a 24-hour news cycle.

Another case of headline not matching the story yet every idiot bites the bait. Too common nowadays

I can't say I disagree, but I'm not in the business of selling media or ad space.

A lot of celebrities fall off. They may have a "big break" then nothing after that. They could be a leading role in a famous and profitable movie/show and get no roles afterwards.
