Dwight Howard has been outed through a00:00:35
sexual assault case and that's sad sad00:00:37
stuff Dwight Howard is gay when NBA 2K00:00:40
found out they increased his ball00:00:41
handling skills to a 99 overall Howard00:00:44
traveled out front no call and he slams00:00:46
hey yo ladies and gentlemen about a week00:00:49
ago and when I say about a week ago I'm00:00:51
really talking about February March 197400:00:54
Jet Magazine reported that red fox was00:00:57
going to miss a few episodes of Sanford00:00:59
and sun to and the show's thirdd season00:01:01
the magazine would then report Fox's per00:01:03
episode salary which is tacky as hell at00:01:06
the time Fox was earning around00:01:09
$25,000 per episode in 1974 with00:01:12
inflation that equates to around00:01:14
$160,000 per episode in 2023 it was00:01:17
initially reported that illness is what00:01:19
caused him to miss out on the episodes00:01:21
but Ebony magazine reported that fox00:01:24
took a guest spot on the Merv Griffin00:01:25
Show which caused NBC Executives in00:01:28
studio producers to realize maybe red00:01:30
wasn't so sick after all now the network00:01:32
felt that they went above and beyond to00:01:34
meet Red's demands and the back and00:01:35
forth became so much that tandem00:01:37
Productions which produced Sanford and's00:01:39
son hit Fox with a $10 million lawsuit00:01:42
for failure to report to work on the00:01:44
sitcom I asked for 25% of the show they00:01:47
wanted to give me 25% of The Producers00:01:49
pie and said it would take 5 years00:01:51
before I could get a piece of the show00:01:53
well they want to make me look like an00:01:54
idiot they know they have a winner and00:01:56
had one from the start you see when they00:01:58
gave me the show they had about 20 2500:02:00
million black folks to start off with as00:02:02
a viewing audience the show has made00:02:04
millions they want to sell the show to00:02:06
Columbia for $1 million when the show is00:02:08
syndicated I want to have a piece of00:02:10
that I figure that if I had 25% of the00:02:12
show I could make a million dollars a00:02:13
year for the next 10 or 12 years I want00:02:16
some money now because I deserve it now00:02:18
and when I'm gone I want my family to00:02:20
have 25% of something rather than 100%00:02:23
of nothing I just want 1/4 of myself to00:02:25
own if I can't have 1/4 of me then why00:02:27
am I living unfortunately red Fox forgot00:02:30
he was talking to Old Money whites you00:02:32
see by then Fox had been in the business00:02:34
for 38 years he felt like he was still00:02:36
being treated like some beginner when in00:02:38
actuality he's been doing this he's on00:02:41
the same level of Bob Hope or Danny00:02:43
Thomas I mean he won a Golden Globe in00:02:45
1973 for playing Fred G Sanford does00:02:48
that not mean anything it is no longer a00:02:50
question of money with me now it's a00:02:52
question of Economics I recently made00:02:55
$150,000 in one month on the road with a00:02:57
show and that ain't bad that's money but00:03:00
it's economics when I own a piece of the00:03:02
TV show and my family can make it when00:03:03
I'm gone or we can make it when I'm no00:03:05
longer out there on the road and00:03:07
remember red fox just wasn't starring in00:03:09
the show but he also did some of the00:03:11
writing getting a story by credit for00:03:13
two episodes but more importantly he00:03:15
changed a lot of the dialogue to make00:03:17
black folks authentically talk like00:03:19
black folks my friend Tommy Davidson00:03:21
said the same thing when I interviewed00:03:23
him years ago it was white writers00:03:25
writing for us see because i' never00:03:28
heard of have you ever heard heard a00:03:30
black person call another black person a00:03:31
jive00:03:32
turkey that was a white idea of how we00:03:34
talk exactly you know what I mean so it00:03:36
was like you know you you'll hear a00:03:38
white person go you know Bubba in Tyrone00:03:41
you know I don't know that many black00:03:43
people named Bubba you know that's their00:03:45
their voice on us that's right I know00:03:47
Tommy very well he's one of my many many00:03:49
celebrity friends who are these00:03:52
it's also noteworthy that the scripts00:03:53
for shows like Sanford and sun and good00:03:55
times were written by a lot of Jewish00:03:57
white men what they're protesting00:04:00
outside already I'm anti- what but00:04:03
that's a fact there are a lot of Jewish00:04:04
white men that write for these shows all00:04:07
of this led to Fox asking readers of Jet00:04:09
Magazine to come to a call of action he00:04:11
demanded writing credits he demanded00:04:13
wardrobe changes he demanded more money00:04:15
and asked this to his fans if there are00:04:18
any blacks who read Jet and think I'm00:04:19
right I want jet to send me the letters00:04:21
so I can forward them to NBC he called00:04:24
for a boycott does that sound familiar00:04:25
my loves I'm not asking to boycott any00:04:27
network boycott me boycott Chappelle00:04:31
Show do not watch it unless they pay me00:04:34
and if we're being completely honest one00:04:36
more thing red hated was his demanding00:04:38
schedule starring in a TV show is no00:04:40
joke trust me ladies and gentlemen I00:04:42
know according to Ebony magazine this00:04:44
was red schedule during production of00:04:46
Sanford and Sun script readings on00:04:48
Wednesdays run-throughs on Fridays00:04:50
script memorization on Saturdays and00:04:52
Sundays blocking on Mondays shooting on00:04:55
Tuesdays and the chaos starts all over00:04:57
again the next day I feel your pain red00:04:59
that leaves absolutely no time for the00:05:01
hose and that's unacceptable when it00:05:04
came to the conditions for blacks in00:05:05
Hollywood fox said the industry was00:05:07
nothing but slavery in a tuxedo this00:05:10
industry is a00:05:11
monster it's the same monster that these00:05:14
me two was trying to tell you00:05:17
about but they hate the monster for how00:05:20
it and I hate that monster for how it00:05:23
eats but my God man it's the same00:05:26
monster and red fox wasn't the only00:05:29
actor in the 1970s to miss episodes of a00:05:31
hit sitcom in order to hold out for00:05:33
better pay Carol o Conor did the same00:05:36
exact thing and according to00:05:38
Entertainment Weekly he sued tandem00:05:40
productions for00:05:41
$644,000 in back pay and other contract00:05:44
demands it was later revealed that other00:05:46
members of All in the Family had00:05:48
received little to no residuals Sally00:05:51
Struthers who played Gloria divic has00:05:53
gone on public record saying that she00:05:54
only received royalties when episodes00:05:56
aired in syndication five times after00:05:59
that that fifth time she has not seen a00:06:01
dime since and Rob Riner who played her00:06:03
husband Michael on the show had this to00:06:05
say about feelings of being exploited00:06:08
I'm not disturbed about the t-shirts and00:06:09
the posters that capitalize on the show00:06:11
what bothers me is something like the00:06:13
book The Wit and wisdom of Archie Bunker00:06:15
all the material in it was taken from00:06:17
the television scripts and I wrote a00:06:19
good hunk of those jokes in them yet I00:06:21
don't get a penny from the sales and00:06:22
neither does any writer on the show in00:06:25
1999 it was reported that Sherman00:06:27
Helmsley from The Jeffersons filed for00:06:29
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Eric Monty the man00:06:32
who created the character of George00:06:34
Jefferson and co-created Good Times00:06:36
filed for bankruptcy started smoking00:06:38
crack and eventually ended up homeless00:06:41
Monty eventually sued ABC and CBS for00:06:44
using his ideas in good times and The00:06:45
Jeffersons without giving him credit00:06:47
after he was awarded $1 million he was00:06:50
blacklisted as a screenwriter too00:06:52
difficult to work with and what do all00:06:54
of these creatives have in common they00:06:56
worked for the king of the 1970s sitcom00:06:59
Norman Lear that's right folks Carol o00:07:01
Conor played Archie Bunker for nine00:07:03
seasons over 200 episodes in all of the00:07:05
family a sitcom developed for American00:07:07
audiences by Norman Lear Sally strs and00:07:10
Rob Riner were all in the show as well00:07:12
sford in some was developed by Norman00:07:14
leer starring red fox for over 10000:07:17
episodes Sherman Helmsley was George00:07:19
Jefferson for 11 seasons and over 25000:07:22
episodes The Jefferson was the longest00:07:24
running black sitcom for 27 years until00:07:27
it was beaten by Tyler Perry's House of00:07:29
pain each one of these characters are00:07:31
over 50 years old and still remembered00:07:33
today they're iconic they've stood the00:07:36
test of time but guess what Sherman00:07:38
Helmsley died broke red fox died broke00:07:41
Carol oconor had multiple contract00:07:43
disputes over salary and ownership Sally00:07:46
strs and Rob Riner got little to no00:07:48
residuals and Eric Monty has absolutely00:07:51
nothing to show for co-creating good00:07:52
times and George Jefferson meanwhile00:07:55
Norman Lear sits on an Empire worth00:07:58
hundreds of millions of dollar00:08:00
this man is 101 years old born July 27th00:08:04
1922 101 he's evil by default he looks00:08:08
like a super villain and its skin cat we00:08:11
were all counting down the days until00:08:12
Betty White turned 100 and we were all00:08:15
devastated when she clocked out at 9900:08:17
there's a reason why Norman Lear made it00:08:19
to 101 and no one gives a you know I00:08:22
hope we can get this episode out within00:08:23
the next 48 hours before Norman Lear00:08:25
dies time is of the essence and I don't00:08:27
want to be blamed hold on strong Norman00:08:29
at least until 2024 I still hate you and00:08:32
listen folks the stories of producers00:08:34
exploiting their artists is as old as00:08:36
Show Business itself I did not have the00:08:38
best experience being signed to Bad Boy00:08:40
Records can't stop won't stop uhuh uhuh00:08:46
that's a trigger I'm sorry but sadly in00:08:48
the 2020s we still hear stories of00:08:50
artists being taken advantage of but the00:08:52
more folks are aware the more we can00:08:54
prevent artists like red fox and Sherman00:08:56
Helmsley from passing on with nothing to00:08:59
show for their life's work while00:09:00
producers like Norman leer and Bud yorin00:09:02
have created generational wealth and00:09:04
that generational wealth was based off00:09:06
of the work of black artists I don't00:09:08
know sounds like slaver to me but hey00:09:10
what do I know ladies and Gentlemen00:09:12
