Hello, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the right opinion, the house of eight, with too much free time and for those. Well used to this channel, you will know that I have a habit of covering topics that normally fall within the YouTube sphere.

I do this for a variety of reasons, it's consistent with my brand, you guys enjoy it, I have a lot of personal investment in the themes and the views aren't bad either, all of these factors are considered when undertaking a new project and as you can imagine, My head runs a series of complex mathematical algorithms to calculate the most suitable topics to cover in my next content, however, from time to time. There is a disturbance in the matrix, the computer malfunctions and a topic is chosen because I feel like it. Yes, I know, as shocking as it may be, I possess the ability to experience feelings today.

This emotional intuition has led me to one of the most

ic. talk show hosts of all time and perhaps the not-so-unknown fate that befell them this abysmal year, you see, as I subtly alluded to a moment ago, YouTubers have characters, myself included, although these characters will rarely reflect completely to the individual behind them that we tend to develop. a more personal connection with them than we have with most celebrities because of the many personal elements that have been integrated. The intimacy of YouTube has always been a specific selling point and where we can separate the art and the artist into various branches of entertainment with content creators.

The relationship seems a little more inextricable, however, probably one of the most similar genres to YouTube is the American talk show host. I will close Twitch. I will close YouTube games. I have had that power for years. We have perceived them as an invasive species. platform and to be honest I can't say I'm particularly excited about their presence, however their involvement makes a lot of sense, especially considering how they call themselves, the overlap is so obvious now that we even have a YouTuber who became a talk show. host, that's a video for another time for those who are familiar with this type of television personality, you will know that despite these scripted sequences and the big-name guests, there is a lot of weight in the actual host and the qualities that they have, whether the soft sidonic bite of Trevor Noah, the reasoned incision of Stephen Colbert or James Corden, each has its own appeal;

However, if the degree of market dominance that one woman has commanded, that woman being Oprah Winfrey, can be claimed, it takes a drum. roll, cue drum roll, okay, open your boxes, open your boxes twice, get baited, punks, although it's completely true, of course, the Oprah Winfrey show has been off the air for just under a decade However, it was over 20 years ago, in 1997, when an individual by the name of Ellen Degeneres appeared on the Oprah show to speak openly about her sexuality for the first time. Why did you think it was necessary for you to come out of the closet?

You know what. Have you read some of the emails that people say if you're going out why don't let that be your business, why did you need to go out? Tell the audience why it was necessary for the character to do it. Because she is well at that time, Ellen was a star of the popular sitcom. Ellen's proper name, Jones, came out of the closet. Also integrated into the plot of that show, with the revelation occurring in a scene in which Oprah played Ellen's therapist, the episode containing the sequence became one of the most watched in the show's history and attracted an audience of 42 million; however, despite this reception. mixed both within the industry and the political spectrum with some advertisers taking away spots and pressure from groups concerned about family rights, how lovely, although

ellen

was renewed for a fifth season, Disney property, ABC Ram, heads up warnings for parents before each episode, which along with other factors was attributed as engineering.

The show's declining ratings and eventual cancellation spurred debate over LGBT discrimination within the field. What about this? What about adult content that depicts characters who are gay on television in physical acts? I think it's adult content, but how come it's more adult content than straight couples hanging around? in bed, which they do again, we are making a judgment about what our society is comfortable with and what they will not be comfortable with, so aren't we just allowing bias into the audience? We're not necessarily telling people not to watch it. The television career hit a rough patch in the following years, with another attempt at a sitcom, The Ellen Show, failing to find success;

However, in 2003, the winds of change finally blew in our comedian's direction, first with the release of the animated film. Finding Nemo, where she played a memorable character named Dory, a fish with short-term memory loss, her distinctive voice performance earned Ellen both accolades and awards, strengthening her status as an innovative artist and versatile; However, the best was yet to come because in September the first broadcast of a small program known as the Ellen Degeneres Show was broadcast. It's uh, it's September 8th. This is our first show and you are my first audience. The Ellen Degeneres Show. commonly abbreviated as

ellen

is a

daytime

interview series hosted by no one other than our well-known friend Ellen Degeneres, her philosophy is often presented as one of positivity accentuated by a light-hearted tone featuring audience participation and celebrity guests in a variety of games, pranks, pranks and giveaways since its inception just over 17 years ago.

The Ellen Show has steadily climbed the

daytime

television ratings hierarchy, often second only to the man, Dr. Phil himself, the show has received 61 daytime Emmy Awards, spawned spin-off series such as Ellen Games of Games and has earned a reputation for being a space where one can unplug. of all the stress in the world an asset that becomes increasingly valuable in times like these however it would not be possible to convey that message if the host did not embrace those same values ​​and in Ellen many would find someone who is a lighthouse in that darkness is a doctrine of goodness represented by a person who would face difficulties to be where he is today but who overcame it and wanted to share that spirit with you.

I don't think you have to have a talk show to be nice. People should do what I'm doing. I just believe that kindness is something we should all have. It is an innate quality that we have and need. We need more of that. Be kind to each other. A simple but powerful precept. and one that to many, Ellen seemed to live alone; However, in a time when many felt that kindness was more imperative than ever, some began to claim that he had, in fact, abandoned her, while others claimed that she was never there in the first place.

What followed was an avalanche of media-driven accusations that threatened to alter the perception of a beloved tuberculosis

and everything people thought she represented; On the contrary, many jumped to her defense, claiming that these attacks on her character were unjustified, that critics had imposed unfair standards, and that Ellen was still the person she had always claimed to be, a person under attack or a person under the microscope. , there is only one way to try to find out, ladies, gentlemen, I suggest that we begin to unravel this curious case, you see what it seems like. Recent actually goes back a little further than you think, so to fully understand what we're dealing with today, let's dust off the time machine, give it a spin, and gather information to understand what set the stage for the charades to come.

I've been studying kindness for the last 17 years on this program and I thought I could help with some research you know like I didn't know these are things I've learned so consider me your teacher this is like kindness 101 so pay attention attention this is midterm the ellen degeneres show has somehow established ellen as an icon unlike anything else she has created this is not to diminish her contributions to her career before we must acknowledge that these things are cumulative, but when people think about ellen they think about this well what i want everyone in this room to do is just think kind thoughts let's witness the power of kindness let's all think kind thoughts in a way that is incredible and the fact that That so many people have that innate association is a testament to her abilities as a performer, and at the same time, given the marketing and framing of the show, many viewers and even guests will get the impression that the Ellen Degeneres show is fundamentally what happens.

When you just take Ellen and put her in front of the cameras for 40 minutes in a way, this is part of the charm, at the same time, this is an un

real

istic portrayal, does this mean that Ellen is not a kind or even good person? Ellen doesn't necessarily preach those virtues. and off the air, but at the same time it is clear that some had a mental image of Ellen that did not match their later experience, particularly when the cameras were not rolling for the gossip magazines, when someone expressed this feeling publicly it was indicative of the appointment.

The

real

Ellen and it had been the predominant point against her for a few years, in some ways I think it was a result of the fact that certain skeptics found Ellen Schtick too good to be true and with the online world when someone seems so wholesome and perfect. some people feel ready to depose them, there were internal leaks and celebrities who had negative experiences with her, such as kathy griffin and corinne olympios with the way she describes her as having a pretty bad streak and the latter referring to her in a podcast is very cold. you say that's a great representation of yourself um that's a real me it's definitely a real side of me um but there are many other sides now it's important to note that these were mostly fringe rumors at this point the fights and interactions unfavorable are not unexpected In the industry, some media jumped on them because, as scoops, they are quite interesting and challenge the universal perspective, but most people did not pay much attention to them;

However, the fact that minor comments received this publicity was a sign that many were ready to live up to their expectations. Subverted hell, a 2017 YouTube video about this issue has racked up over 10 million views, most of which came long before 2020. Go sit in that Ellen jail over there right now, I mean, Look how angry Ellen is, look at her face, I've never seen it before. Her act like this is always weird and over a hat and yes, people laugh, even Ellen, you know, laughs a little, but this lady has been shamed in front of 13 million people on YouTube, a live audience and millions watching at home and why?

Note that Kavos is a creator who primarily focuses on YouTube dramas, and while his upload received mixed feedback upon launch, the traffic was indicative of the potential such narratives held. That video focused on a rather peculiar clip in which Ellen criticizes an audience member for taking more than one item of her merch against the instructions shown. Some of these more controversial clips have resurfaced over the years, attracting small snippets of public attention. These excerpts may have seemed well-intentioned in concept, but could translate in practice as mean-spirited or short-sighted at that. He said that the video itself is nothing extreme and Kavos begins his critique of it with the acknowledgment that he really likes Ellen.

This is how many felt about her at the time and it seemed like many of her criticisms would amount to Ellen's individual experiences. that didn't turn out as expected, this is the perspective that Portia de Rossi, Ellen's wife, echoed in an interview for Ellen's relatable 2018 Netflix stand-up special, stating that she is a little more complicated than it seems in the program, there is more variety of emotions. In the same article a friend and director Tignataro affirms this by stating that being trapped in the world of being asked to dance and expecting it to be cute is real, adding that I'm sure there are people who think he's joking orthat you can't have a bad time. day but she does it's an interesting predicament she's in ellen has bad days and unfortunately some people will see that from time to time, especially people who have had limited experience with her, that point of view could hold back public approval, maybe if each claim was treated as an outlier rather than a pattern for a time, this was primarily the case given the sparse and separate nature of the previous negative testimonies and the existence of conflicting positive testimonies, it was particularly difficult to reach a consensus on what Ellen's workplace was really like.

The most overtly critical testimony was provided by an individual named Surgery Strikes or Dan Tobin, which was published in 2007 during the Writers Guild of America strike after Ellen questionably crossed the picket line to tape her show. Tobin shared stories from when he worked for her. In the mostly failed sitcom The Ellen Show, which depicts her as antagonistic and even contemptuous toward her team, she comments on how she openly expressed a desire to fire the head writer for lack of quality content, while also points out how he would later create the legendary. Arrested developments, this stance received a great deal of media attention, but for the most part it fizzled out when no one else came forward to corroborate the claims.

Ellen would indirectly respond to this account and other headlines fueled by anonymous testimonies in the 2018 interview, where she dismissed them as quotes. An absolute lie in emphasizing that happiness in the workplace is one of her top priorities, with that in mind, why did we have any reason to doubt her commitment? Well, at the time of the interview, not much. I'll say some of the other content for later, but as it was. What was constantly hammered home was the fact that Ellen was human in a way that I think a lot of people knew, but even if we did, the Ellen Degeneres show had almost elevated its host's image in a way that begged for her to be taken down. .

However, the only way this would happen is if a steady stream of people with degenerate backgrounds showed up and for a long time that just didn't seem like it was going to happen, but here we are today, which probably means one thing he did in For the most part, Ellen's 2019 went off without a hitch, but as the new decade beckoned, she found herself in a bit of trouble after appearing at a baseball game with former US President George W. Bush, where they seem to be sharing. Some exquisite banter Some online did not welcome this interaction given Bush's notorious legacy, which included the now highly controversial invasion of Iraq.

Ellen responded to this by appealing to her philosophy of kindness by stating that this principle does not extend only to people who agree with For her, this targeted the support of many celebrities in her comments section and also inspired a monologue on a later episode, but just because I don't agree with someone on everything doesn't mean I won't be friends with them when I say be kind to each other, I don't just mean people who think the same way as you, I mean Be nice to everyone, it doesn't matter. Earlier in the year, she had received some mild criticism after hosting comedian Kevin Hart.

She had pulled out of hosting the Oscars following the resurfacing of some old and inappropriate homophobic content. Now, personally, if she's moved on from that situation, then I don't think she should blame him and I really think it's sad that she had to quit. such a fantastic opportunity, at the same time, Ellen's narrative that the unrest or outrage was simply a case of malicious internet trolls may seem a little unconventional to some, there are so many haters out there, no matter what happens on the internet , don't pay attention to them. that's it that's a small group of people who make a lot of noise we're a big group of people who love you and want to see you host the oscars you know they're the trolls and they do it and who knows who this person or people you care about is and You can't let them destroy you and they can't destroy you because you are too talented, no one can do that and stop you from achieving your dream, what you wanted to do and what you are entitled to. to do what you should do that's why they haven't found another host now this may not seem like the most relevant incident to today's speech and anyone familiar with ellen will know that her friendship with bush and heart preexisted these situations however was an important reminder of the extent to which our goodwill as a TV presenter incorporated whether it was too far away for some people it wasn't important, it wouldn't be Ellen if it were anything else, you know, in 2020 we could all use a little kindness towards each other with the bleak socio-political landscape draining the very fiber of our being, there has never been a better time for Ellen's teachings to shine;

However, instead of being the saving grace in a year full of disappointments, she became a key topic of the public itself. disappointment, let's move on then and if you remember I mentioned that getting advertising claims would require organizing them in a way that describes a pattern of behavior rather than just individual experiences, it was hard to see exactly how that would happen, but gold was found. When comedian Kevin T Porter decided to raise some money for charity through the unorthodox method of donating for every story shared about Ellen's cruelty, the tweet announcing this quickly received hundreds and eventually thousands of replies covering the alleged Ellen's antics, these ranged from former fans whose opinion of Ellen had been spoiled after encounters with the TV personality to an eyewitness account of Ellen transforming into a dragon, although unfortunately there is no evidence to support That, however, there were a few select statements that stood out and became quite popular on their own terms. of which, regarding ellen's former head writer karen kilgorth, the tweet here claimed that during the 2007 writers' strike kilgore had refused to cross the picket line and was subsequently fired from her role and ellen never spoke to her again, kilgroove had actually made a statement expressing empathy for degeneres at the time for crossing the picket line, so this would be a pretty damning story if true and this is at least somewhat supported by the account itself Kilgriff's case is now in a position where the program has decided to cross the picket line. and you said no, well I didn't say anything, I had to go on strike, so we all said goodbye like, oh this sucks, this is so weird, see you later and you know when I was talking to my eps. like we called you and it was all that kind of stuff and I don't think anybody was prepared for the kind of political action that was about to take place like they knew nobody knew what was going on what happened.

The writers guild found out that they were our show was going to cross the picket line, they went crazy, they were just as they wanted, they made sure I was always in the center of the strike gate, it was really crazy. It just became the eye of the storm in this weird way like the show was doing the worst because there were others that you weren't working on no, we were on strike, we showed up every day like that it was the crazy part is ours The show was angry at us because the guild was angry at them.

What happened after that with your relationship with her? Oh yeah, she was bad, so we made her sit out the first day, so Karen Anderson and I were talking to her and we were just. like you, please trust us, this is a lot worse than you think is right, um, and that's why she stayed out the first day, told them she wasn't going to cross the picket line and then that's when they assaulted her, I mean, I don't. Meet the affiliates, no, no, no, no, the production company, right, the people who ran the show are sure that their people are right, like all the big shots come in and we're like, uh no, you're doing the show, so she doesn't.

I'm comfortable with that, but they basically convinced her that this is what you have to do and then that's when it all seems like we're union fanatics, yeah, a story started floating around and the next time after that, I, who am your writers, yes, like everyone. Of us on strike we had no choice, she was definitely guilty, like there are all these people who have jobs, you can't, you can't stop their paycheck, you know, they put her in that weird position, I think it was the part that fell apart. the worst thing was just that interpersonal connection that no one needed to be demonized, no one needed to be like she was the one doing all these things.

At one point there was a story in the National Enquirer that I was in about how Ellen had crossed the picket line. There was like a photo of me on the strike line in the National Enquirer, it was the strangest thing and I never spoke to anyone from the National Enquirer, that's not something you do when you work on a show, you sign confidentiality papers and there was no story What to tell, we were on strike, it was just what it was and they, the people, the eps and things like that found out and thought that I went to the press, so it was things like that, it was like you had known me for five years. and you think you think I would go to the national choir to talk about this ridiculous situation, it was like all that kind of stuff ended, everyone was so distant and everyone was so angry and those people had to work for four months on a talk show without writers like they must have been really stressed, I mean it wasn't good, I honestly felt like at that moment it was almost like an act of God, it was like I've been here for five years I've given all this something really strange has happened that I never it would happen in a million years it's like the weird thing I go out like this is my chance to leave and that's it and I just wash my hands it was because it was too much it was really painful now this excuse is that ellen's actions are not for nothing is a situation where she could have had the luxury of thinking for herself and not believed the fact that someone sees contact with another individual?

All in all on the basis of a very difficult decision makes me wonder where her priorities lie, but it's not a character critique we would need, however, we have many more stories to examine, some of them characterizing her as unbearably petty, complaining about trivialities and going as far from encouraging the firing of those who had caused her inconvenience, others describe her as cold, distant and even cruel with statements from several people claiming to be or at least not to be employees in the program, but the common theme is that many were discouraged from even talking to her with ellen adhered to this principle quite strictly and the stories continued to pile up, many of which were not the most positive, not what you would expect in a thread built on the premise of sharing your experiences stories were supported by a good cause may lead some to present circumstances in a more negative light than they actually occurred;

However, a good portion of these stories were difficult to dismiss, some came with receipts and others came from seemingly credible sources, yet they were all tied together. for one thing, that Ellen Degeneres's recorded goodness was not as inclusive as proclaimed, in fact, to many it appeared to be a source of personal gain, a façade that was abandoned as soon as there was nothing at stake, however, as Most of these tales revolved around relying on third-party or anecdotal evidence, very little could emerge from it prospectively, a group of people gossiping on Twitter is not really enough to topple and establish a television personality alone. ;

However, social media can be an excellent indicator of how much meat there is on the bone for a voracious media outlet and I'm sure many were excited by the prospect of a headline revealing the undermining of the values ​​personally promoted by a figure public that would otherwise be revered, even if she didn't realize this, Ellen's producers should have recognized the protective signs and tread carefully. the standards and conduct of everyone involved would be tested more than ever. This was a time when kindness and care towards those around you was desperately needed, perhaps even to a degree unprecedented in the world. the lifespan of the ellen degeneres show and if they make even one misstep, they could easily be subject to very acute scrutiny that could permanently damage the image of a show they love so much and its precious host, the

truth

is that if ellen degeneres doesn't could afford the currency of kindness to those around her then it was not a price that anyone else was willing to pay.willing to pay Jesus, where the hell am I?

At the end of the previous part I emphasized the importance of this viral threat that had already generated a few articles and sent many previously unsuspecting eyes to a daytime bride as the pandemic loomed and we were all advised to stay away from each other. There were a lot of question marks about the entertainment industry and what this meant for shows like Ellen, which relied on personal interaction with a live audience as well as all the employees whose jobs may be on the line at the same time, this The concern went beyond the industry, probably felt by many people who observed Ellen and looked to her for guidance.

It was an emotional time for many and Ellen needed to be sensitive to how she would deal with this era of uncertainty. She always wanted to have this show as a distraction, as a break from whatever was going on out there. be nasty so if you're feeling down I want to lift you up if you're feeling trapped I want to set you free if you feel like you're going in the wrong direction I want you to back off that with a calming clip from home, quintessential Ellen, what could go wrong. One thing I've learned from being in quarantine is that people, this is like being in jail, it is what it is, mainly because I've been wearing the same clothes for 10 days and everyone here is gay, the jokes I have, Well, it looks like the writers have gone on strike again because that joke sucked and wasn't particularly well received by viewers either, with many tweeting their dismay at various aspects of The Joke Now there are plenty of angles you can hit it from, however, I think it once again makes Ellen seem a little out of touch with the state of the world.

The analogy doesn't really make much sense in concept and just falls short. intensified by the focus on Ellen's problems that don't attract the most personal sympathy, you know what movie wouldn't have worked during a quarantine alone at home, you're killing it today, that being said, it's a bad joke, it happens at a time like This seems excessive to be angry about, who knows how much stress Ellen or her staff may be under that cloud of their judgment over delivering such a joke. She'd have to do a little worse than that to be attacked, right? A week later, it was reported that many members of the Ellen Degeneres show's team were frustrated by their treatment after the state of crisis, according to two anonymous sources, they had received little or no communication and showed no concern from the program.

In addition to Because of this, many executives were frustrated that the show had hired an outside, non-union technology company to record its broadcast at home when employees finally heard back from producers, more than two weeks later, they were informed that their pay was being cut. would be reduced by 60 percent to an amount that would hardly be enough for many workers, much of the workforce probably felt that their future was up in the air, and the supposedly ambiguous messages from leaders probably did not calm these anxieties of waiting for such difficult news. , can hardly be fair and many were I hasten to point this out, as long as this is true.

Can this be attributed directly to Ellen? Not at all, she can't be expected to keep in touch with everyone she works with. I think most people can understand that, however, the problem is once again. What rears its ugly head is that contradiction: the people who have given everything to keep a show going deserve to be informed above anyone else, and whether it's Ellen's direct responsibility or not, people don't want to see her as if was in a system that is the antithesis of what she defends with this story a new narrative began to emerge that not only accused Elena of hypoxia based on her principles, but of a greater double standard when dealing with other celebrities, ellen did the most sincere appeal to the qualities of friendliness and decency, after all, they are human like the rest of us, however, these standards seemed to be neglected when dealing with someone outside the celebrity group, some felt this way after the controversy of George W.

Bush, this separate class had always existed. elite above the consequences of their own actions and that Ellen had since joined them, the contrast of a billionaire in his mansion complaining about confinement while the livelihoods of many employees were in danger was not a flattering portrait and It only served to highlight us and them. In contrast, I want to start doing my new show as soon as possible because it's really for the people who are stuck at home and especially for my staff and my team, I love them, I miss them and the best thing I can do to support them is keep the show going. on the air, so here we are, however, this still wasn't the whole story as clips began to appear that even questioned the idea of ​​Ellen's preferential treatment of celebrities.

These could be quotes from people reflecting on her experience, like Nikki. tutorials deciding to address the show's hospitality on a Dutch talk show um, it seems like there's even a hierarchy within the industry and despite being applauded on air, her treatment elsewhere seemed less than stellar, but that's just one account, what about direct clips? Well, there were those like well, it's good to see you happy birthday, when was your birthday?, it was October 4th, October 4th, this is dakota johnson, she is an actress, model and friend of ellen, at the beginning of the interview, degeneres decides to jokingly criticize the fact that johnson hand invited our gracious host to a birthday party, however, there was a slight problem with that.

Actually, no, that's not the

truth

. Ellen, you were invited last year. No, the last time I was on the show last year, you told me a lot about not inviting you, but I did. I didn't even know you wanted to be invited, but I invited you and you didn't come, so this time you invited me. If you're sure? Yes, how do you know? I don't believe it. Ask everyone. Ask Jonathan, your producer, who's okay? Was he invited Why didn't I go I don't know if it was Oh yeah I had that thing In fact at the time of Dakota's grieving Ellen was busy in a little baseball game with former President George W Bush Now this exchange seemed to be in a good mood, However, these circumstances surrounding it led many to return to it, especially the relevance of how out-of-touch Ellen is portrayed.

Other clips were even more incriminating, such as a now fairly infamous scene with Mariah Carey where she determines whether she is pregnant with a boy. Ellen decides to offer the singer an alcoholic drink, something anyone expecting a child would want to avoid. I'll also add for more context that Carey suffered a miscarriage after this interview, which doesn't really age well and then the other thing is people say that, uh, that you're pregnant, there are rumors, don't talk about it, um, okay, no need, okay, no, honestly, let's toast with champagne and decide on some champagne, it just makes you fat, no, let's toast to you, no. be pregnant if you're not pregnant who knows what they have who knows okay go ahead ok cheers cheers it's too early for me I only drink it after 3 p.m. m.

As a concept for a low-key prank, it may have been a bit of fun and at least I initially thought it was too personal not to stage, however, Kerry later said that the questioning made her feel quite uncomfortable and when you take this into account, It's hard to look favorably on Ellen, even if it wasn't her idea. She should have recognized and respected the discretion of her guest and not fallen for the betrayal of the tabloids. I have my own dog. In reality, she is pregnant with two. I have two dogs, both her master. Well, let me have some vodka next to me. why not? you answer ellen did that to me and tried to put me on the spot, good with some alcohol okay alcohol im trying to put you on the spot it's good if you're okay as these clips started collecting out of the others documented claims.

Some began to look for an explanation for such behavior if she was out of touch or out of care, well, with more accusations to come, let's talk about it with the gradually increasing agglomeration of content, there was little doubt that something here was not of the all well, however, at the At the same time there was a divergence in the theories that many adopted when attempting to evaluate Ellen's actions; On the one hand, some believe that much of this illustrated a celebrity who had simply forgotten what it was like to live in the real world and had therefore become insensitive to the needs of many of those she claimed she cared about to be.

Honestly, many of the rich and famous probably suffer from a lack of relationships, yet their careers don't depend on connecting with an audience the same way Ellen's does, are you guys fans of? the program is correct, yes, and you watch it regularly. Alright, one of those who subscribed to this school of thought was a juicer from the Ellen Degeneres show, speaking anonymously in an article published in the New York Post, they recounted the time Ellen couldn't. She didn't read a text message after losing her glasses and decided the reasonable response would be to call Steve Jobs and inform him that the iPhone should have a larger font.

They say it's Ellen and that she's not a demon, just a person who has been living in a privileged place. bubble for too long, this does not seem like an absurd point of view and would perhaps explain some of this alleged rather petty behavior, as others claim by focusing on her role as host, she may have been isolated from many with whom she works . either by her own decision or through corporate design, something I will probably talk about in her time. Some who had worked with Ellen previously said they had an overall positive experience, such as former head writer Karen Kilgriff, whose relationship seemed to fizzle out quite a bit.

Suddenly, when a conflict of interest arose in Karen's interests, she was clearly hesitant to characterize Ellen as the source of this fight, especially with corporate meddling witnessed; However, others would not be so charitable and would have a more damning verdict on our famous friend, where some may stop short of characterizing our protagonist as malicious, others would venture with much less trepidation, especially with some of the more incriminating testimonies and clips. on display, and then you went through a very difficult time, you couldn't get a job, what was that like? I couldn't get a job, I couldn't get anyone on the phone, I mean, literally, you know, the show was canceled and no one called me, I just found out that my assistant read it in the paper, um, and you know, I felt.

I feel sorry for me, I felt like this isn't fair, I thought people liked me and why did this change something and I'm still the same person and you know, everything seemed horrible to me. Ellen is a television veteran and someone who has had more than ample experience with the worst in the industry, however, while that makes her rise up the hierarchy very respectable, it also makes selective application and even outright abandonment certain responsibilities are more difficult to defend; With some personalities, you can use ignorance as a way to explain away certain mistakes even if you personally believe that they have a duty to be aware of the consequences their actions have, it may make sense for them to lose sight of this.

In short, Ellen seemed much harder to believe and many concluded that she must have been aware of these. injustices, but had made a conscious decision not to care, some would go further and say that she may even enjoy the subjugation of those around her who engage in excessively cruel and sadistic behavior, this matches many of the more unforgiving stories. regarding her conduct and it should also not be ruled out that another person who would come out to support this in the following amount was a bodyguard who escorted Ellen at the 2014 Academy Awards and stated that, although her experience with Porsche, Ellen's wife Ellen, was pretty positive, this went downhill.

Quickly, when he met Ellen, who barely made eye contact with him and radiated that aura of rigidity that bothered the companion in question, he summarizes his thoughts by saying that it is a little degrading the way she treats people who are not the ones she They are in it. In the circle now, both of the aforementioned positions have their defenders and cases that seem to argue against even people who claim that much of what was said was completely made up; However, this criticism did not subside and many more people began to discuss their run-ins with the embattled icon.

However, despite this, everyone remains silent on Ellen's social media, addressing drama is usually not a positive process. , whether it was the right thing to do or not, so she kept pushing, but internal reports continued to spread that these accusations had affected her and it was difficult to deny that she shouldBeing somewhat aware of what was being said now, in general, the rule for many public figures is to avoid insisting on statements that do not necessarily have the substantiation to deserve a response, but with leaks and rumors that reach fever pitch. tone felt as if the show was a breaking point constantly roaming rings were being thrown at the press, who promoted it to the expectant public in a vicious cycle that was gradually eroding the show and its host stature by early July word began to spread that the ellen degeneres show could be canceled entirely due to the accusations and although the production company behind ellen dismissed this as speculation, as expected, with what happened in the coming weeks perhaps they wish they had made because Thursday, July 16, a damning event.

A dossier was published that denounced the toxic work environment behind the award-winning production. It described unjustified dismissals, discrimination, favoritism, and neglect of responsibilities that are normally expected from a program with such a moral foundation. Yes, one current employee and 10 former employees described the workplace culture as being governed by fear with most of the blame falling at the door of producers who were aloof degenerates and validated an environment that marginalized vulnerable people. that they needed support above anything else somehow much of what was detailed was no more incriminating than the previous testimonies published and this was much less focused on Ellen, for some reason this article went deeper, perhaps the cumulative factor along with other content, perhaps it was the socially charged narratives that had become increasingly relevant in recent months, but for me, once again, it was the organization of a In a series of moving stories published in media credible and moderately credible in the article, the executive producers who are the subject of much of the criticism expressed surprise at the accusations that promised their commitment to a safe and friendly workspace for all who seek to fully accept. guilt for misconduct is listed, attempting to divert attention from Ellen in many ways, this was not her story once again, at the beginning of the article there was an emphasis on Ellen's narrative of being nice, effectively used to contrast with the upcoming content.

It wasn't just any workplace, this was Ellen's workplace and if she was as nice as she was perceived to be, silence was no longer an option, but talking was a costly obligation anyway, let me explain, let's get back to it. Ellen as a person and to Ellen. As a show, they are in many ways separate entities, but the fact that the latter is based on the former means that no matter what the producers claimed, this was as much Ellen's problem as anyone else's, as one of these said staff members if she wants. to have her own show and have her name in the title of the show, she needs to be more involved to see what's going on.

One of the biggest problems with this industry is that there is often this separation between individual presenters and the productions behind them that seems easy to understand. forgotten as an audience member, but it is understandable when the host takes a more passive role, as in certain reality shows or televised talent contests, and even then, in many ways, as an anchor of the experience that a host cannot expect. focus on control. behind the scenes, however, this was reaching a point where Ellen's neutrality would be seen as an endorsement of an undesirable status quo. The accusations were well founded and that's why she needed to say something before she could say anything, although Warner Bros intervened. launch its own exhaustive internal investigation that would determine the source of the problem on July 27, Variety reported that a memo had been sent to staff members the week before announcing the upcoming audit with consultation from a third-party organization and a customer relations group.

Employee interviews were conducted and circumstances were evaluated and three days after the initial story was published, Warner Bros. issued a statement regarding the findings of its evaluation that revealed deficiencies in quotes in the work environment while also indicating that changes would be made. This was a statement made on behalf of both the company and Degeneres. which probably wasn't the best decision, but it appears that Ellen had distributed her own separate statement to staff communicating remorse for not having been aware of the oversights and shortcomings and promising to ensure that a repeat of such antics at At All Costs would be avoided. , this statement was picked up once again by the press, who framed it as Ellen finally breaking her silence; however, it was mostly an internal acknowledgment of flaws only caused by the main report and doesn't really mention much else, not what you'd expect.

But it's not what some online portrayed it to be, but Ellen's statement was enough to start a strange chain reaction that would take this ongoing controversy to new heights, although the promise of a safer work environment may have appeased some employees. who are not directly affected seemed reluctant to accept her apology, likely because many felt her angle was taken primarily for damage control rather than actual regrets in response to these specific accusations leveled against her; many felt this simply added more weight to the belief that she was just another selfish social vulture and this time it wasn't just the internet reveler who was paying attention;

In fact, Ellen's statement attracted the attention of some pretty notable figures. One of those who left his input very soon after journalists' coverage was esteemed voice actor Brad Garrett who had appeared on Ellen's show during the 2000s, however it seems any camaraderie had faded since then. when she criticized the chalk show host rather harshly by commenting in a now-deleted tweet that it was common knowledge that Ellen had mistreated her. The staff, although also claiming to know some personally, this was reported by websites, an article that generated a response from future star Leia Thompson who seemed to affirm Garrett's nominations with her best Yoda impression around the same time, the announcer Australian radio broadcaster Neil Breen, no, no. that neil breen recalled the time he had worked as a producer on a show that interviewed ellen the numerous restrictions the production team had placed on them and the subsequent environment that worked well for him when ellen degeneres came to australia to make his show in 2013 i she was the executive producer of the today show, so we partnered with them to have the Swiss vitamin company that was sponsoring the whole thing bring her here and she was originally going to be a co-host of the today show, and then I was going to do this and she was going to do it and it all fizzled out until ellen degeneres would do a sit down interview, right, we took the whole today show to melbourne at our expense, but she would do a sit down interview with richard wilkins, um, we walked. on and then on Ellen's show project there were a lot of them there were a lot of people there anyway the producers took us aside and said okay this is how it's going to work here this morning Ellen is going to arrive at 10 15 and she'll be there sitting in this chair here and Richard, you will be sitting in this chair here now Neil, no one can talk to Ellen, so don't talk to her, don't go near her, don't look at her, her.

She'll come in, she'll sit down, she'll talk to Richard, then Ellen will leave and we'll give you the thing and I said, are you a big earner? Oh, I can't look at her. Everything seemed strange to me. Anyway, I have to say that I don't blame Ellen because I couldn't talk to her because I wasn't allowed to, so I don't know if she's a good person or not. She wouldn't have a clue, but I can. I'm telling you the people who worked with uh worked walked on eggshells the whole time and it was all totally strange like we were there to do an interview with her to promote what she's doing but you can't look at her like someone turned real.

In case it couldn't get any worse at the time she was being publicly reprimanded, more accusations were made towards the producers about inappropriate advance actions and comments towards employees that included the invitation to give one of our revered executives a handjob and even the occasional group. Here and there, the main recipient of these accusations was producer Kevin Lemon, who many believe covered up her behavior with sarcasm, but carried it out in the most predatory manner. There were also allegations involving two other producers, Jonathan Norman and Ed Glavin. This was corroborated by many others. former employees and seemed to incriminate other producers who failed to take action against such behavior.

The role of degeneration is not explicitly discussed, but as in the previous case, it calls into question his position as a person whose environment should reflect his own values ​​with these additional contributions. It seemed like Ellen's reputation was practically in the gutter and with ratings in free fall attributed at least in part to the continued protests, a repeat seemed to be a distant dream - although after all, you can't exactly be surprised if Ellen was an actively malicious actress or a distant celebrity was no longer close to the inner workings of her own product, she was undermining her own appeal, and as it stood, these were the only two explanations that made sense of the situation and neither made her look good. ;

However, the walls were collapsing. That Ellen may have one last chance at redemption coming from those more familiar with her fellow celebrities who wanted to present a third perspective, a much more sympathetic one, we're back with Katy Perry and you're about to go on tour and, uh, you're right . september, you're single and ready to socialize ready since kevin t porter's initial post there have always been those who spoke up for our beleaguered heroine by recounting the genuinely positive experiences with her and, whilst obviously not representing a universal perspective, the fact that some of These testimonies going against the grain of Twitter made them seem more authentic in a way;

However, they had mostly been isolated and discarded given their relatively weak presence in a sea of ​​criticism with August; However, this was about to change for many. As she shared her negative experiences, public figures came out in droves to share the positive ones. Music producers. Award-winning actors. Comedians and many more. Their stories told a different narrative. Sure there may be rumors circulating, but the experience they had with Ellen was invaluable and she has done so many fantastic things for so many people, she may not be perfect, but surely whatever she was enjoying at the moment wasn't there, she had brought so much more light to this world than many others and to dismiss it based on rumors, well, that's just ridiculous.

The internet is a place full of negativity and stigmatization and in a year like this it was time to take a step back and remember that people like Ellen really gave us a heartwarming feeling, but was it enough to get Ellen out of the situation? hole she had found herself in, well let's talk about it with statements coming from many well known names, this third narrative began to gain traction, there were so many people paying homage to Ellen's character, many of whom would have significant personal history with her , maybe online toxicity there were some who clearly agreed with this and echoed the sentiment on their timeline after all, Ellen had done a lot more for communities than many of those Internet denizens who threw second-hand shade hand;

However, at the same time, The Celebrity Narrative did not exonerate Ellen in the way one might have implied, in fact, for some, it actually solidified more cynical behavioral theories. why is it so good? Let's think about the initial case and what many alleged we were told to many. He felt that Ellen gave preferential treatment to those in her elite circle and had a tendency to avoid those outside of that, therefore, it was entirely plausible that those most likely to vouch for her were those in the elite circle. . Now, with that in mind, there are many appeals to the greater positive effect that Ellen has generated beyond those who have direct experience with her, given her history in fighting for human rights, animal rights and many more .

This is all well and good, but it doesn't really dispel the main point against television. Personality from a social perspective Ellen may have left a net positive impact on the world around her. I'm sure there are many people who have been touched and inspired by her feel-good spirit on a daily basis. I'm sure there are also many people who have received help from charitable companies andphilanthropic, but the moment we allow someone's net positive impact to absolve them of all possible criticism is the moment our fundamental ability to think critically has failed. Sure, there may be some points where appealing to a greater impact as a public figure is a valid response, but responding to people who share negative experiences and accusations of workplace toxicity does not meet this criterion.

A lot of these statements just feel like Ellen ruining the celebrity Twitter group chat by asking people to vouch for her because it doesn't seem like any of these people have any idea who they're replying to or what's going on, and the fact that That these posts were made a few days after the new accusations of impropriety simply makes them seem even more clueless by the end of the episode. day, I'm sure we're all happy that people had a positive experience with someone they greatly admired, but it didn't alter what was happening elsewhere and how many wanted something more than just people saying he's nice, believe me , this sense of division was not helped when former Ellen DJ Tony Ochemboa commented that he personally was with his colleagues and had also experienced some of the toxicity reported in his timid decade-long stint on the show.

However, there was a glimmer of hope for Alan on a more personal basis. Samantha Ronson, a person who has worked with Ellen on more than a few occasions, supported the Under Fire TV host and said her experiences as an employee have been positive, creating at least some diversity outside of the celebrity clique, the current boss of dj stephen. o twitch had left a mostly ambiguous comment to the media observing that despite the difficulties there was love however that love was clearly not present with three of the producers who in the following week were all fired by Warner Bros. these individuals have been placed under the microscope following the accusations we discussed above and it is clear that the parent company had viewed these accusations with the seriousness they justified or at least their media implications justified that two of the three producers had previously declared their innocence denying the accusations made against them and as this was an internal investigation, it is difficult to really comment on the reliability of what was being testified to, although given the volume of the claims, it is difficult to dismiss them now, that being said, I believe their fates were sealed regardless of the whirlwind of media chaos. that had already been unleashed. given the corporate bigwigs a headache that was probably shortening their patience with the show's production team, and keeping the producers on after such widely supported claims had emerged would have been bad news for them in more ways than one. end of the day. be replaced by people who, hopefully, will leave the corporation in less trouble, the truth is that there is only one person behind the program who is apparently indispensable and that is Ellen, therefore, the priority will be to keep her image as clean as possible. possible at all costs now that they had the majority.

He failed in this task in the following months, however, there was not much they could do, the only person who could defend Ellen was Ellen, but at the same time, by doing so, he would be opening a can of worms, unfortunately the worms escaped from anyway and had a lot of dirt on it, the celebrity endorsement should have given it at least some sort of comfort, but in fact it partially contributed to the smears espoused by its detractors, brought more attention to an unresolved problem that the company took sufficiently Seriously enough to fire three of his executive staff and a bunch of rich people who dismissed much of the online outrage while people were spreading rumors was incredibly bad timing, especially given the final outcome of the investigation. once the departure of its senior officials was announced.

Ellen got a call to discuss it. Additionally, with current employees where she is alleged to have disputed certain claims about her character, such as those claiming she did not want people to make eye contact with her, a claim she called false and also reaffirmed her commitment to being much more active behind the scenes and not just being an on-screen person, which is good, however, as he had probably realized by now, this was not just about his employees, but was a public issue that had been discussed. the inner workings of an otherwise beloved daytime show. exposed and she had to be the one to correct him in many ways.

The comprehensive explanation of this situation that we discussed at the beginning of this part was not yet out of the question, but some judgments cannot come solely from the testimony of third parties. Anyone can vouch for someone else, but sometimes that person has to speak for themselves and let people judge them based on their own sincerity. This was not a situation that lawyers, producers, managers or celebrities could respond to. speak for Ellen this was a mistake she had to write Ellen built a career on kindness a feeling that when It's made up people don't take it lightly the question was whether Ellen was a woman at work and at this point we didn't.

I don't even know what her word was now when I talked about the record ratings on the Ellen Degeneres show being attributed in part to the controversy. You may be wondering what the other reasons were. Simply put, they were reruns and reruns will inevitably attract fewer viewers as some have already seen the episodes that air, however a new season was just around the corner and that meant a new beginning, but not really. you can start over until you put an end to this saga for the last few months. Ellen's reputation had been a living nightmare with many substantiated claims against her and as she slowly transformed into this internet caricature without even an attempt to defend herself, it felt like she was losing control of what she even stood for, but he still had one thing if you're watching his show and that means he still had one more chance to redefine his values, would he take that opportunity?

Well, she would have to dig deeper. Oh boy, welcome to season 18 of the Ellen Degeneres Show, September 21, 2020, season 18 of the Ellen Degeneres Show was the launch of corset. Her journey to the screen, while not without obstacles, had likely taken many involved to a better place. Dj Steven Boss was now also an executive producer so hopefully he would bring some of his trademark love and generally had those in charge become more committed to a support structure for employees, I think we can all agree that This can be considered a positive thing overall, however, it was always bigger than this show, it was about the person at the center and that individual still had many devotees and detractors waiting for her to address what had cast a large shadow over her through throughout this tumultuous year in a way that was not just for her but for all who had admired her over the years, an open renewal of a doctrine that had previously been taken for granted, this time she had to say it.

Seriously, how did it go? As you may have heard this summer, there were accusations of a toxic work environment at our show and then there was an investigation. I found out that things happened here that should never have happened. I take this very seriously and I want to say that I am very sorry for the people affected. I know that I am in a position of privilege and power and I realize that that comes with responsibility and I take responsibility for what happens on my show. We have had many conversations over the past few weeks about the program, our workplace and what we want for the future, we have made the necessary changes and today we are starting a new chapter.

Well, the apology is quite short in the context of the show and mainly addresses claims in his General State, as shown in the clip, he previously talks about the office environment and accepts responsibility for the misconduct that occurred under his nose; in fact, this part is executed reasonably well and Ellen reiterates the need for a new beginning; However, then we get to the heart of the matter. about people's problems, Ellen's character, something the TV host should know better than anyone and her apology, her apology is certainly a sight to behold, there are also articles in the press and on social media that say that I am not who I seem to be. tv because I became known as the nice lady the truth is I am that person you see on TV I am also many other things sometimes I get sad I get angry I get anxious I get frustrated I get impatient I am a work in progress and I am working especially on the topic Out of impatience because her monologue is not going well, she once again avoids specific details and opts to confront the general sentiment behind the accusations and the message that many within the press were using the stories.

To push, she draws on her humanity and her imperfections and admits that she is not perfect but that she works every day to improve it. A very noble spirit. In fact, she ends up having a conversation with the new Twitch producer and using him as a vehicle to stream. that feeling of progress, you know, the summer was a little crazy, it was intense, but during that time there was a lot of learning, a lot of discussions, a lot of listening, you and I have had numerous discussions and, for me, I'm very excited to be of back here in the studio so we can do what we do best, which is bring laughter, love and fun, and also lead by example by giving our best after a rebound, so it's all love.

I'm so excited for this season, it's all love, that's all real, it's love, that's the truth After this lovely speech, Ellen moved on, I mean, she moved on to the next segment of her show, which I'm going to assume is a Hilarious comedy and a trademark of Ellen Degeneres. hijinx, thank goodness it's all over yet, for many people it wasn't over, in fact the reception on the YouTube post-upload wasn't the warmest and the slight dislike ratings indicated a widespread rejection of Ellen's return and the subsequent declamation, most of the comments and video responses were tinged with a clear doubt about her integrity, after all, with so many accusations, you can't easily put them aside in the space of five minutes with her.

I'm not perfect, so what narrative? I always try to grow as a person. I observe everything that arises. my life as an opportunity to learn I got into this business to make people laugh and feel good, that's what I like to do the most and now I am a boss of 270 people 270 people who help make this show what it is I am 270 people. I am very grateful for the only thing I want is for each of them to be happy and proud to work here. However, what did I think? Well, after going through the whole situation, this video struck a chord, it's certainly short, humor interspersed. these serious apologies feel a little awkward, the laughs aren't necessary and they keep cutting back to applause at very spontaneous points like ellen ends racism and also talks about what's going on in the world, which although not necessarily used as a point The defense may seem like it's trying to downplay the allegations, which is not what you really want from this type of video, at the same time I feel like as Ellen super fans go, this explanation It will convince them and, to be fair, I can't exactly blame them for that.

My hope is that we can still be a place of happiness and joy. I still want to be the only time a day where people can escape and laugh. I want to continue helping all the people we help every day and I am committed to making this the best season we have ever had. When I talked about Celebrity Elite earlier I mentioned how, in many ways, many of her comments were irrelevant to the charges brought against her because most of her character's implications only stem from one specific case here. Ellen doesn't address the specific case, and that will understandably frustrate viewers as she treats them in a way that encompasses the allegations and seeks to explain them through the lens of them being nice.

Obviously, the narrative is not always the most beneficial for her image, as it is not always something she can commit to. It is not perfect and this seeks to address the underlying insinuations behind other claims. Being known as the nice lady is a difficult position to be in. Let me give you some advice, if anyone is thinking about changing their title or giving themselves a nickname, don't go with the nice lady, this is where it gets even more complicated and I would like to re-present the previous explanations for her behavior. Cynical and more understanding of commentators and critics, manyThey've started to throw out the assumption that Ellen was a bad person, a tyrant who treated her employees terribly, and so of course this speech wouldn't convince them because the only way to really undermine that.

A pretty unforgiving narrative would be if Ellen directly responded and debunked any and all of the most austere accusations that just weren't going to happen in a way that we've been blessed with comprehensive responses from YouTubers in the past because the accusations often feel more personal for them and they want to clarify themselves, but it is not something that transfers to other industries. Ellen wasn't going to post a 40-minute response to each individual claim with an ambiguous lowercase title, not if she didn't feel she needed to not respond. take cues from the other two explanations, on the one hand, she was clearly out of touch and should become more involved in the well-being of those around her, she had distanced herself from that which she had previously found affinity with while at the same time being human and will have bad days when people may not see your best side.

I've played a straight woman in movies, so I'm a pretty good actress, but I don't think she's good enough to be able to come out. here every day for 17 years and fool you, this is me, if people were more inclined to show leniency towards ellen, people like her fans, then I think they might well believe this explanation, ellen appeals to those fans when she talks about her time on the show, how They Should Know Her. This is not directed at those who no longer like her. This is for people who will be receptive and who have stuck around.

That they've seen what Ellen has done after all, whether people choose to forgive her or not. Those who are not Ellen. Before-enthusiasts are unlikely to become later-item enthusiasts, and if Ellen were to transform the show into an elongated response, it would only hemorrhage more viewers. This was a call out to the people who knew her and who knew who the real Ellen was, but was who the real Ellen was really enough? Ellen During the month following the response and before the time of writing the script, Ellen's show has found some semblance of stability, however, the ratings have dropped and that, as expected, has been picked up by many outlets with current circumstances changing the world as we move forward.

I know, it's hard to know if this is permanent, but it will certainly foster some unease among the corporate bosses, okay, william, you have to get down, it will be good if you come down here, oh God, it's okay, don't worry, william, how ? it was so terrible ok oh my god we're done now no you'll come back up oh my god the show itself hasn't changed too much which has been a little more complicated compared to previous seasons I guess it's one of the least problematic. For people, her presence is a more effective instrument to win back people who may feel disillusioned with Ellen and her routine.

Stories are still being published here and there about how Ellen has treated those around her, although unless there are major developments, I would expect this. fades away as people gradually lose interest in the subject and move on to the next star who misbehaves, leaving this American idol to fend for herself, rebuilding what she may have lost before losing much more, it's hard to believe that she will disconnect with current ratings and it's still important to remember that a bad season for Ellen is still much better than a good season for most broadcasts; At the same time, doing poorly by one's own standards can be demoralizing and there will be questions about whether it's worth it.

Sticking with such pretexts as they are, it seems like it will, but there's no real surprise behind why viewership may have dropped for a show that couldn't respect its own foundations. Ellen herself took for granted the reputational benefits the show gave her. and she eventually turned on her, but the burning question is how much she knew and what exactly she did. What bothers a lot of people is the hypocrisy when you project this out-of-the-world image of being nice. and loving and charitable, but it turns out it's all a facade to make you look better when in reality you're some kind of monster behind the scenes, that's worse than just being an unapologetic guy, you attract people with this fake persona and they I fell in love with you, but in reality you have been lying to their faces all this time, the YouTubers and much of the press were unanimous in giving their prognosis, often incriminating that Ellen is indifferent to the suffering of those around her, even They openly give themselves to it. backed up by testimonials from people claiming to work with her and substantial evidence that for many developed an already well-founded perspective of how, with all of this acknowledged, I feel it was a fairly selective body of evidence cherry-picked by those online, but I agree Not only should I blame Ellen, I would also say that Warner is probably more to blame here than Ellen.

Oh, and of course, the other employees who also pitched in and made the workspace terrible for me personally. It is difficult to ignore the amount of testimony that actually refrained from incriminating especially those outside the celebrity group. The full exposition of the former employees emphasizes that Ellen was not directly aware even though she neglected a certain degree of responsibility are the stories in The ones where she is presented as a borderline psychopath incompatible with this not entirely, but the depiction of the workplace where Ellen is as this distant matriarch makes it harder to believe that she also filled the role of power-hungry dictator who punishes others. people for their own pleasure, especially when some of her former colleagues go so far to defend her in the At the same time, they will train employees who would attack her, such as former producer Head Muscat, who worked with Ellen between 2002 and 2004 and had an idea very different from his consciousness.

She laughed and said that every production needs her dog, I mean, Ed is her dog. like her attack dog, her attack dog, therefore, she doesn't need to do that. He took on the role of being the attack dog that she didn't take. Now he has to be the attack dog so he doesn't have to yell, so when Ellen says she's not aware of this environment, you don't think that rings true, it's lie, taking all this into account, it becomes conflictive, there are so many people. with different ideas about who Ellen is, especially given that many of them work on the show at the same time and they may all have their own reasons for the positions they take, reasons we will never fully understand now, as said, there is no reality in that these two experiences cannot coexist and the people who have defended them certainly make it worthy of consideration, but writing people's nuanced thoughts to fit a more one-dimensional character portrait risks two things: first , downplaying the role that other actors have played, the corporation's fellow producers, for example, and secondly, undermining the actual experience.

A lot of the stronger accusations seem to imply that I think a lot of viewers had predetermined opinions, which led to a lot of people becoming overly pedantic about what it was. really just a pretty average response to the drama even with some of these experts oh boy welcome to season 18 of the ellen degeneres show generous show generous show there's a little bit of self-consolation followed by a prayer we have a behavior group though she's trying to giving this jovial energy hey okay let's move on, she's very aware, very aware of the possible downsides of doing this wrong, but why should she worry about it if she hasn't done the things she's been accused of doing?

Why is she praying? I'm sorry, but I would be 100% uncomfortable addressing accusations, whether true or not, telling someone that she has nothing to worry about if she hasn't done anything wrong is good talk, but it's certainly not impenetrable. In attacking the defendant you can argue that the fact that she is nervous is addictive, that clearly she does care about this and I think to some extent she would have faced criticism, however she addressed the response or this comment that says that because she added a conditional clause she was ruling out responsibility even though saying yes was the most logical placement in the sentence given its generality and if I have ever let anyone down if I have ever hurt their feelings I am very sorry if that is ever the case I've let myself down and I've hurt myself too if you use it if in these circumstances you're not a bad person and I don't think that means you're dismissing it I've used it in that context before and I don't think it's unfair to use it it seems like a lot of people are trying to parse your statement with the galaxy brain when it may be a bit lackluster and contrived;

In other cases, stories can be twisted through hyperbole for anecdotal purposes or the classic telephone scenario, another good example of this is the nail polish chip. Instantly posted a comment to record that the situation in question involved Ellen phoning branch management and attempting to fire the employee, but then the actual person who was at the center of the commotion commented saying that Ellen had filed a complaint. which almost resulted in his dismissal. Now I'm not trying to use this as a moment to prove the story is false because I'm not giving it one bit, but once again it's a case of how stories can be distorted by narratives a complaint intended to encourage a firing It's very different than a complaint that almost leads to a firing since it implies a lot more about the complainant's intent.

Neither version of events flatters Ellen, of course, I still think it's pretty dumb, but the difference is still notable. This story was finished by Pharah herself in a stand-up routine, obviously for humorous effect, and I don't think it discredits her story at all, but it's easy to see how those details are told. in moderation when they do not have too many consequences, although in the current context they can be decisive in understanding Evan and I believe that some testimonies did not match this weakness, especially once told from the perspective of a third party. I understand self-torture because I worked for years.

At an organic vegan mecca that serves the locals, I was released after a popular talk show host emailed the owner and complained about my ship's nail polish. True story with many of these stories if you become too obsessed with the role Eden plays and not with the ways in which other individuals may have contributed to bosses, insensitive or coercive producers or anyone behind the scenes who is often much less responsible but may still have some degree of power; It's easy to lose sight of who else may have really contributed to a situation and how they may also need you. being held responsible for her actions somehow ellen had gotten away with it for too long at the same time, she shouldn't easily become a scapegoat for other people's misdeeds or all ellen is a sadistic psychonarrative may be more exciting but?

Is it the most plausible? I'll let you decide which are more devil's advocate arguments for now I'll leave some safer critiques because there's more than enough to go around, whether Ellen is genuinely evil or not, there seem to be plenty of legitimate reasons. grievances that arise from less than perfect encounters from a stranger's perspective, ellen allowed herself to separate herself from the masses of people who subsequently lost touch with the narratives with which she branded herself, we are all going to be cold and distant from time to time when and I I didn't attack her on that basis, but I think it's very possible that this distance led to a death tone and callous behavior that probably hurt a few people;

It could also lend itself to pedantic micromanagement and comments that upset others. One of the saddest situations this encompasses is Ellen's relationship with her head writer, Karen Kilgriff, a previously strong and productive bond severed over partisan interests, with Ellen simply accepting this, if something like this were to happen, especially with business as it is. are, I would talk to him. they understand her perspective. Ellen didn't have enough control of her own production or even her own character at times and even if what she felt from time to time was real, the show simply wasn't, it was a well-produced veneer for another. rope transmission. that she suffered the same problems is symptomatic of too many Hollywood creations, she needed more humanity and maybe Ellen needs it too.

This is me. The season 18 monologue wasn't the first time Ellen talked about her kind of kindness and the toll she can take. In the 2018 interview that I cited earlier in the video, she talked about the mythical real element and the weight of the audience's expectations of her to maintain a brand that she does not always identify with the article emphasizing this which reveals that in person she is more direct . introspective andinteresting than she is on the show, willing to express mild irritation that may seem out of tune in front of a national audience, some expect her to smile all the time, to be cheerful, even to dance something she stopped doing on her show a few years ago. years. because it was too much at one time, even with the controversy, she continued to pursue the image of kindness, she even recently released this beautiful merchandise, be kind, she's been around for too long, James, all these people walk away, you've been famous forever , move away as eventually.

Everyone will notice, many people close to Ellen recognized what the show had done for her public persona, but you could also see that the show had limited her image in a way that previous projects had not set standards that she couldn't. Living up to some around Ellen, including his wife, had encouraged Degeneres to consider other avenues, but our intrepid main character perseveres. If the pre-indictment interview was anything to go by, the TV star saw her career as a mixed blessing and was more aware of the dangers than some may think, but she couldn't prevent the inevitable tragedy.

Using this interview to promote his Netflix comedy special is certainly ironic in retrospect, the subject matter being a satirical commentary on his place among the media elite and detachment from the hoi poloi a concept that would raise its head in capers starters a few years ago I started to end my program by saying let's be nice to each other but here's the downside: I can never do anything unpleasant I shouldn't even have a horn in my car like someone will cut me off in a dangerous way if I honk they are Like Ellen, kindness is a virtue, not a brand, and expecting someone to be the model of such a pure quality is bound to cause disappointment.

At the same time, it's not wrong to expect better from someone who claimed to be better, someone who used the narrative of kindness when it suited him, extending it to people who many would say had not practiced it, but neglecting it with those who probably needed it most. Ellen seemed to be lost in the cosmos of her own state and, if anything, I hope the situation brings her back to earth. At the beginning of this video, I talked about the similarities between YouTubers and talk show hosts, however, what they can share in the presentation differs greatly in composition and ellen. is a prime example that a person who lets go of her character will now see her as an algorithmically calibrated puppet maintained by contract instead of whatever she is. the real ellen is the only person who can know who the real ellen is is ellen herself and i hope she takes It's time to find out what that means, however, if she wants to recover her public image then it may take more than a simple monologue, a gradual healing will be necessary, exemplified by your own actions, and I hope that those who still believe in it will be rewarded. his faith before I knew it I had a successful sitcom and I got out and then I lost that sitcom and then I had another sitcom and I also lost that sitcom and after that I got a talk show and I was able to be myself and that was 17 years ago and I feel like You all have really gotten to know me over the last 17 years.

The arc of Ellen Degeneres is certainly fascinating, a person who built an image out of a philosophy rooted in struggle, some of which she experimented with directly with her television career only to be accused of abandoning it as she rose through the ranks of the industry, It is not a rare phenomenon, many people become corrupted in this way, but it seemed more exceptional given his own convictions and as a person who had been considered a national treasure. His downfall was almost expected by those who knew the potential of such a story, the twisted villain per se with content on and off YouTube attracting widespread publicity and destroying what had taken years to build, if the damage to his image will ever be repaired. is another question and will depend on factors within and probably outside of your control until then the best thing you can do is show that you really care about kindness because God knows we need it right now.
