Do you think the criticism towards her is valid?


https://www.justjared.com/2021/07/09/wendy-williams-goes-viral-faces-backlash-for-comments-about-late-tiktok-star-swavy/

Wendy Williams is getting backlash for her shocking commentary about the late TikTok star Swavy, born Matima Miller, who was shot dead at 19 earlier in the week.

The Wendy Williams Show host discussed the tragedy on her show on Wednesday (July 7), but it was the way she went about it thats gone viral.

During the Hot Topics segment, Wendy displayed a photo of the late teen, and then began speaking about him having more followers than her on social media.

I have no idea who this is. Neither does Norman. Neither does one person in this building, she said, asking those in the audience to clap if they knew him.

Here he is. Hes 19 and he was murdered Monday morning.

The segment went viral on social media, with many calling out Wendy for her insensitive way of discussing the topic at hand.

She set up a murder story in a weird way. Before she revealed he was dead, she was making jokes about the guy

She is a vile person.

Whats funny is I have you tagged as, likes Wendys :) lol, so imagine my moment of shock upon opening the topic. (Of course, the tag refers to the fast food chain, not Wendy Williams obviously.)

Sounds like Wendy Williams is your average CEman who insists on posting 'who?' in every celebrity death topic.

Had to google who Wendy Williams was; from what I can tell she's a US talk show host? So why is she dressed as Miss Piggy in all the pictures I can find of her?

Wendy breathes and lives toxic. She ain't going anywhere. She found her fanbase like Trump did. There's nothing that calling them out will do.

Gimme that 2 for 5 on the spicy chickens.

And on topic, Wendy Williams is someone who has always been far outside my circle of stuff I care to learn anything about, and even I know she's a vile piece of crap.

It amounted to "I don't know this guy. Nobody here knows this guy (cause we're all middle aged). But he has even more followers than me so he's a big deal. Well... he's dead." I would say that she doesn't have tact when presenting such things, but her no tact, zero filter approach to topics are why she has a following.

I'm pretty sure that legally counts as inhumane treatment and torture. I'd suggest threatening legal action in future.

There's not tiptoeing and outright mocking them.

Her show from her home was a nonstop hilarious trainwreck last year. After like day 2 she was constantly just drunk and saying even more nonsense garbage than usual. Wendy doesn't care if anyone is offended by this and neither is her audience or advertisers.

It's like the equivalent of those idiots here, you know who you are, that feel the need to go into topics about people dying and respond with "who?"
