LisaRaye Mccoy doesn't like that she's being labeled as a 'colorist' by fans after seemingly being soft on Rob Lederman, a fired disc jockey who compared Black women's skin to toast. In fact, after LisaRaye said he was entitled to his "preference", she denies standing by the unemployed man at all.
A radio host who was rightfully fired for rancidly racist comments he made about the skin tone of Black women is offering an "apology" if you even want to call it that. Earlier this week, Rob Lederman of The Morning Bull Show on 97 Rock Buffalo went viral after audio was released of him commenting on his attraction to Black women and comparing their complexion to the numbered settings found on toasters. While he did so, fellow radio hosts Rich “Bull” Gaenzler and Chris Klein chuckled casually in the background. MadameNoire reports that the audio was first posted by ESPN reporter Marcel Louis-Jacques who was horrified by what he heard. “I have them to the attractiveness of women that I find to be attractive. I will never go to a Serena Williams level, but I’m very comfortable with a Halle Berry level.” Lederman went further adding, “I need a little bit of mulatto still coming through.”
