Attacking Chris Rock for dogging the black community.
Keep the mention of Black women’s hair out of your mouth.
This was a call to action with a reference to the slap.
“When Black women’s hair features as the butt of jokes, the very real and myriad forms of multiple marginalization against Black women is erased and even justified,”
Black women's hair as the butt of jokes is a metaphor.
Not only did Rock produce and narrate the 2009 documentary “Good Hair,” which brought Black hair culture to the big screen, but he created it with his own daughters in mind.
The inclusion of Rock "contradicting" himself supports the narrative.
Exclusionary actions stemming from disdain toward our hairstyles are so pervasive, they require legislation.
This supports the narrative.
Let that sink in
metaphor
Black women’s hair has been the object of scrutiny, derision and ridicule in American society since it’s been growing out of our heads.
Black women as the victim narrative.
“When Black women’s hair is mocked by comedians like Rock, he ushers in the everyday forms of microaggressive hatred against Black women that normalized blatant discrimination,”
The inclusion of this narrative supports black women as the victims narrative.
Her glare encapsulated the fatigue and frustration that so many of us deal with in the complex daily feat of simply wearing our hair as we like.
The author found a reflection of her own feelings in Jada's reaction to the joke.
Rock’s joke, and Jada Pinkett Smith’s resulting eyeroll, echoed even more thunderously for Black women.

One Last Takeaway From ‘The Slap’: Leave Black Women’s Hair Alone
Sets up the narrative that the story will follow.
None of the hosts appeared on stage immediately after the Smith-Rock incident, but Schumer later attempted to inflate the crowd during the third hour after the air was let out of the room, but even her quips weren’t enough to turn the night around.
Smith ruined the night, not even funny quips about the incident were enough to fix the night.
The Oscars ceremony was a mess even before Will Smith slapped Chris Rock
The flaws of the Oscars are that they don't give enough recognition to typically marginalized communities.

Not that queer woman of color who made a passionate statement about accepting your identity or a deaf actor humbly accepting an award on behalf of his community. Not for a woman succeeding in a traditionally male-won category. Not for a streamer winning the best picture trophy and potentially speeding up an already dramatic change in the industry.But for a slap.
Women overshadowed by men, women as the victim narrative.
In fact, it’s alienating and angering the very people it is supposed to celebrate.
The Oscars aren't making valuable strides in the right direction. Women and other marginalized groups suffer for it.
Not recognizing these categories during the main show is a public rebuff of the often undercelebrated crew members who are the bedrock of Hollywood and its films.
The Oscars' lack of recognition also perpetuated the Slap's affect on overshadowing the women.
Smith’s slap wasn’t the only folly of the production. The ceremony was marred by controversy even before it began. Producers decided to present eight of the 23 awards before the live broadcast began and then edit those winners into the show later.
The Oscars are not in favor of the actual awards, rather their more interested in maintaining ratings.
The event should have been a celebration of diversity. Ariana DeBose became the first queer woman of color to win an acting award, Troy Kotsur was first deaf man to win an Academy Award for acting, and Jane Campion became the third woman to win in the directing category.It should have also been a watershed moment for the streaming industry. AppleTV+’s “CODA” became the first movie from a streamer to win best picture.Instead, audiences will remember the 2022 Academy Awards as the time a nominated actor slapped a presenter for making a crass joke about his wife.
Women overshadowed. Women as the victim narrative.
“I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.”
This continues to show Chris Rock as a villain.
But for Bailey, this incident and others like it serve as reminders of how misogynoir affects all Black women, especially those who aren’t in the spotlight—and the urgent need to correct it on a structural level.
Still, with an apology, the damage has been done and continues to affect black women.
Twitter users were also quick to point out that this isn’t the first time that Rock has targeted Pinkett Smith as the butt of the joke during an Oscars ceremony.
This pits the audience against Rock even more, which supports the narrative.
Jane Campion’s acceptance speech for the Best Director prize at the Critics’ Choice Awards, she addressed the Williams sisters, saying: “Venus and Serena, you’re such marvels. However, you don’t play against the guys, like I have to.” It was considered by many to be a back-handed compliment that was dismissive of the Williams’ significant accomplishments.
This quote was included to show that even white women can be guilty of misogynoir.
For many Black women watching the Oscars, Rock’s casual insult of Pinkett Smith was both painful and familiar.
Black women as victims narrative.
“Chris Rock’s one ‘joke’ was rooted in misogynoir, texturism, & ableism,” wrote artist Christina Brown in a tweet. “Degrading a Black woman, in a room full of her peers, on live TV. The fact ya’ll don’t see that as violent is beyond me.”
Black women as the victim narrative.
Misogynoir, the term for the misogyny directed at Black women, where race and gender both play roles in bias
This definition is helpful to describe the author's narrative.
On Twitter, users wasted no time in calling out the broader implications of Rock making this particular joke at Pinkett Smith’s expense.
She quotes twitter to show the disdain of the victims.
Pinkett Smith, before the broadcast cameras showed her rolling her eyes in disdain.
By including this, the author is supporting her narrative that the women are the victims.
most of the critique has been focused on the incident itself, rather than its cause: a degrading joke that Rock made about Smith’s wife, actor Jada Pinkett Smith, and the fact that her head was shaved.
She strips the focus away from the incident itself to focus on the degrading joke.

Nicki Minaj put herself in Pinkett Smith’s shoes. “Imagine what it must feel like to be losing your hair to the point where you have to shave it bald. You think that’s easy to deal with for anyone? You don’t think she’s cried about that many times?” she wrote on Twitter.Many in the auditorium after the altercation came to support Smith, including Daniel Kaluuya, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban. In the hours later, the hashtags #ProtectBlackWomen trended.”Sometimes when you’re speaking about somebody’s wife, you can’t really help that. So that’s what I would say,” Mj Rodriguez told The AP at the Vanity Fair Oscar party.ADVERTISEMENT
The author shuts these takes down by saying that Rock's joke wasn't as bad as previous jokes at the Oscars.
“They’ve heard a million jokes about them in the last three decades. They are not freshman in the world of Hollywood and comedy. He lost his mind.”

'It's bullying' - Alopecia campaigners explain why Chris Rock's Oscars joke was so offensive
Calling Chris Rock a bully.
"Dealing with unwelcome remarks and being the butt of jokes is sadly an all too real part of having alopecia
Metaphor. Rock is perpetuating the jokes that people suffering from hair loss have to experience.
Both women cited the case of a girl in the United States called Rio Allred who recently took her own life after bullying thought to be related to her alopecia. They said this case showed the very real impact of tasteless and offensive jokes.
The jokes like the ones that Rock made have a serious negative impact on women suffering from hair loss.
"It's really difficult to listen to. I don't condone the violence but I can see what happened. He wanted to protect his family.
She understands that Smith shouldn't have slapped Rock, but Rock should not have made the joke. Rock in the wrong narrative.

Both the general and uncle fluffy were on display that night.
“It was sweetness, sweetness, sweetness and then sour, sour, sourness.”
"The general" was responsible for the slap that occurred.
Will Smith has spent decades radiating boundless likability. But his amiable image was something of a facade, he wrote in his memoir, noting that a therapist had nicknamed his nice guy persona “Uncle Fluffy.”
Smith being a nice guy was more of a character than a reflection of his true self.

The inclusion of this quote supports the narrative.
Smith’s apology was not enough, however, to quell the reaction from Academy leaders, who said in a letter to members on Wednesday that they were “upset and outraged.”
This quote supports the narrative.
Comedians Wanda Sykes and Amy Schumer, two of the three hosts on Sunday night, also spoke out on Wednesday with strong words of support for Rock, as did Rock’s brother.
Supports the narrative.
Mr. Rock, we apologize to you for what you experienced on our stage and thank you for your resilience in that moment,”
Supports the "Smith was in the wrong" narrative
The statement also claims that Smith was asked to leave the ceremony after the incident “and refused.”
Will Smith in the wrong.
Academy initiates ‘disciplinary proceedings’ against Will Smith over Oscars incident
The title supports the narrative the Will Smith is in the wrong.
“Board of Governors today initiated disciplinary proceedings against Mr. Smith for violations of the Academy’s Standards of Conduct, including inappropriate physical contact, abusive or threatening behavior, and compromising the integrity of the Academy,” the organization behind the Oscars said in a statement.
This quote supports the narrative that Smith is in the wrong.
Smith has come under fire in recent days after he stormed the stage on Sunday and slapped presenter Chris Rock after Rock made a joke about Smith’s wife, actress Jada Pinkett Smith.
The inclusion of other people that have shown disdain for smith's actions supports the narrative that Chris Rock is in the wrong.
Per Vanity Fair’s Rebecca Ford, Denzel Washington pulled Smith to the side for a conversation after the exchange, kneeling alongside Pinkett Smith when the show returned from the commercial break. Tyler Perry also joined Washington and Smith during the commercial break. The Smiths, per Ford, held hands at their seats for the rest of the show after the assault.
By mentioning how typically well-liked celebrities comforted Smith, the author is treating smith as the victim. The narrative of Smith being the victim does not feel forced, but it is existent.
He concluded his speech by apologizing to the Academy and to his fellow nominees. “I hope the Academy invites me back,” Smith added.
This inclusion makes the reader feel for Smith.
However, this was not the first time Rock had made a joke about Pinkett Smith at the Oscars. During the 2016 awards show, which Rock hosted, he poked fun at Pinkett Smith for boycotting that year’s ceremony. “Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna’s panties,” Rock said at the time. “I wasn’t invited.”
Rock as the villain, Smith as the victim narrative.
In his tear-filled speech, Smith compared himself to Richard Williams, a man who is also known as “a fierce defender of his family.”
Smith as the victim narrative.
Will Smith Slaps Chris Rock at Oscars 2022 After Joke Gone Wrong
This was considered news because of Timeliness, Prominence, and Conflict. The headline constructs the story as a poor joke that invoked a slap. All Sides Media Bias Rating said Vanity Fair typically leans a little toward the left, but they reported on this topic very neutrally.
“I didn’t know that this year was going to be the most exciting Oscars ever!”
This is presented as regular celebrity drama.
Rock was on the Oscar stage to present the award for best documentary. He began by making a few jokes about members of the show’s audience, including Pinkett Smith—referring to her as “G.I. Jane” due to her closely cropped hair. (Pinkett Smith has spoken in the past about her battle with alopecia.) Shortly after Rock made the joke, Smith walked to the stage and slapped the comedian across the face. He then returned to his seat and shouted, “Keep my wife’s name out your fucking mouth.”
This shows the reasoning behind both the joke and the slap, but it doesn't form a narrative that is separate from the facts.
Will Smith shocked the room by approaching the stage and slapping presenter Chris Rock in the face after the comedian made a joke about Smith’s wife, actor Jada Pinkett Smith.
This is a very barebones description of the event that doesn't paint anybody in particular in a bad light. It is a genuine reiteration of what happened.

November 3rd marks National Sandwich Day
Human Interest and Timeliness
A change in voice and style is needed ASAP to save this Brooklyn Nets season, and unfortunately, Steve Nash had to be sacrificed in that pursuit.
A conclusion based on a fact.
In year three, Nash has continued his regression as head coach of this squad. Before Monday’s win the team was middle of the road in points, field goal percentage, and assists. On defense things were even worse, as they were dead last in points and three-point percentage against, and in the bottom 10 in FG% and rebounds against.
This is a solid report.
Durant reportedly asked for both Nash and Marks to be fired and rumors spread that Irving was no fan of the young head coach either.
None of this is solid, factual information.
Considering the fact that the organization is paying the second-highest luxury tax in the NBA, this is flat-out unacceptable and there were no signs of things improving any time soon.
This is a very opinion-based comment. Again, this is a conclusion rather than a fact.
Kevin Durant’s demands this summer and cut loose head coach Steve Nash.
It was never confirmed that Kevin Durant had actually said this. Regardless, it is considered news because of it's prominence and timeliness.
There is no other way to put it: The Nets are a mess right now.
This is a conclusion formed based on the Nets' record. This is an opinion.
He referenced a manager's report dated June
Though the report dated June, it is still timely because the information was just made public.
The server apologized, brought the floor manager to the table and the dish was returned again, McNally said.
Showing that the server apologized for a genuine accident helps to further the narrative that Corden is a bad guy.
"That’s when James Corden began yelling like crazy to the server," the report said, accusing him of telling the server: “You can’t do your job! You can’t do your job! Maybe I should go into the kitchen and cook the omelette myself!”
The article does a good job of sticking to the quotes gathered from a report. Still, they utilize the quotes in ways that make Corden seem irredeemable.
A New York City restaurateur said he was rescinding a ban on TV host James Corden, hours after he called out the comedian for being one of his restaurant’s “most abusive” customers ever.
The reason this story is considered "news" is because it utilizes news values. The article is an example of prominence, conflict, and timeliness.
