During a segment of “Hot Topics”, the talk show host was speaking on Jesse Williams’ acceptance speech at this years BET Awards, and she had this to say:
“On the other hand, I would be really offended if there was a school that was known as a historically white college. We have historically black colleges. What if there was the National Organization for White People, only? There’s the NAACP.”
According to Love B. Scott, a source exclusively revealed because of her comments, Williams lost the shows sponsorship with Chevrolet. Back in April, The Wendy Williams Show signed a deal Chevrolet, Carat Media and ACE Media Corp. to include on-air promotion of the 2016 Chevy Malibu.
