Fox entertainment network and ‘Empire’ producers are parsing their words but at this point, I can’t see them keeping him on the show when even many blacks have distanced themselves from him, making Smollett toxic and likely unemployable,even in leftist Hollywood.
Many blacks value their victim status and this clown abused that by clumsily faking a physical assault and attributing it to his “strong opposition to 45” (President Trump). For a black man, you know you’re in trouble when Al Sharpton turns on you.
The attempt to smear Trump with a concocted race-based assault story was stupid and deserves to land Smollett in prison, which is a remote possibility but still possible.
Even if he walks free, his reputation is badly damaged and his career is likely ruined. He’ll get little sympathy here or anywhere else.
They don’t want to be called racists.................

Never underestimate the Left’s propensity to forgive even the most disgusting of crimes if done in the service of the ideology..................
We had 8 years of Obozo’s racist administration in the interim...........they were taught well................
Ashamed of having been found out that he plagiarized a song, his character commits suicide by jumping off the balcony of his apartment building. (I assume his character lives in an apartment, never having bothered to watch this show.
Pair him up with Shep Smith.
Wasnt that the case with the first openly gay NBA player? Had a string of girlfriends in his past and no evidence of being gay at all? I think he pulled that because he was in danger of being cut. Funny enough, that was an early reason given for Smollets hoaxthat he was about to be cut from Empire.
They will opt to do an Empire Episode advertised as “ripped from the Headlines” where a poor Rap Star is attacked by two Nigerian White Supremacists who are in to Classic Rock.
If he was white, he would have been fired by now. Plus, there would be endless numbers of editorials lecturing everyone on the evil of white racism.
How long did it take fire Rosanne and all she did was tell an off-color joke in a PC infested country?
If it was apples to apples; the 'Empire' series would have been cancelled by now and a spin off with another name would have been started within a couple of months.
So that guy makes $100,000 and episode and that wasn’t enough. Well he can say goodbye to that money and say hello to bankruptcy when he has to pay all the legal fees and such.
Greed, Greed, and More Greed, it will do you in everytime.
Good point, where is his boy friend. Does he even have one, has anyone come out and claimed him as their lover????????
