The \u201cSmokey and the Bandit\u201d star diminished her own struggle as a small town girl not blessed with classic beauty in deference to black women, who she just assumed had been oppressed and not received fair opportunities in their own careers. Needless to say, Kelly was not happy and let the world, and her guests Dr. Drew and Adam Carolla know. Check this out.<\/p>\n<p><em>Megyn Kelly slammed Sally Field after the actress\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/pathetic-megyn-kelly-slams-sally-field-for-apologizing-for-being-white-during-lifetime-achievement-award-acceptance-speech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">apologized<\/a>\u00a0for being white during her acceptance speech for a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2023 Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>During Sirius XM\u2019s \u201cThe Megyn Kelly Show\u201d podcast, the host spoke with guests Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew Pinsky about what Field said at the SAG Awards \u2014 and asked why the star felt the need to say she was \u201csorry for being a little white girl with privilege.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There have no doubt been obstacles in Hollywood for women, not just black women. Everyone knows what the casting couch is. Harvey Weinstein made sure of that. Instead of talking about a shared issue that all women have in common, Fields instead took the path of least resistance and diverted down the \u201cwhite privilege\u201d road. Of course, white privilege is a myth that was invented by the woke crowd and the far left to attempt to appeal to black people and further the narrative that whites are just handed a profitable, amazing life. But why bother with the truth, especially in Hollywood, where everything you say could be taken wrong and be your last.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sally Field Makes Virtue Signaling SAG Awards Speech About Race, with Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4Pvu0lZu8ig?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cShe\u2019s [Field] very sorry about one thing and that appears to be the fact that she\u2019s white,\u201d Kelly explained. She then played the clip of Field telling the audience, \u201cI was a little white girl with a pug nose born in Pasadena, California. And when I look around this room tonight, I know my fight, as hard as it was, was lightweight compared to some of yours. I thank you. And I applaud you.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Kelly asked why the actress apologized for being \u201craised a little white girl and that she wasn\u2019t of a different race with a bigger struggle.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cBecause news flash, white girls in America don\u2019t have any\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/pathetic-megyn-kelly-slams-sally-field-for-apologizing-for-being-white-during-lifetime-achievement-award-acceptance-speech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">troubles<\/a>\u00a0that are worth remembering when you\u2019re in front of a group that has a lot of people of color,\u201d the host sarcastically shared. \u201cIt\u2019s such bologna, Dr. Drew. It\u2019s such pathetic, obvious virtue signaling.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>As usual, Megyn is correct in saying what others won\u2019t. Sally Fields embarrassed herself and had an opportunity to have a shared moment with women everywhere. In an age where feminism is under attack by sneaky dudes in dresses and fellas wearing one piece bathing suits in the women\u2019s locker room, Fields could\u2019ve spoken to something bigger and more important; women\u2019s rights and feminism. Women have indeed overcome a lot, but at the same time much is being taken from them as well, even now. Fields missed an important opportunity, instead choosing to virtue signal and apologize for her skin color. Racism will not go away until we stop making a point of talking about it, and old white women apologizing for something they have no control over isn\u2019t going to help.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Megyn Kelly had some choice words and pointed advice for Sally Fields in the wake of her embarrassing apology for being a \u201cwhite girl\u201d during her SAG Awards speech for her lifetime achievement award.
