Scott D. Pierce: A former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star has sued producers for allegedly tolerating and even encouraging racism while the show was in production. From what we know about “RHOSLC,” there may be a pattern here.
The lawsuit involves the Atlanta version of the show, but what happened in Salt Lake City seems similar.By Scott D. Pierce“Real Housewives” is being sued for tolerating, if not encouraging, racism. And, somewhat surprisingly, the lawsuit has nothing to do with the Salt Lake City edition of the reality show.
Leakes, who was one of the original stars of “RHOA,” charges that fellow cast member Kim Zolciak-Biermann consistently made racist comments — including the use of the n-word — while the show was in production. According to the lawsuit, the show’s producers and Bravo executives not only didn’t fire Zolciak-Biermann, but took no “meaningful action to put an end to her racially offensive behavior.”
From what we know about “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,” there may be a pattern here. Original cast member Mary Cosby made racist comments in season one, and suffered no consequences from the show’s producers. I am not an expert on all things “Real Housewives.” I watch the Salt Lake City version because it’s my job, but I don’t watch the Atlanta version , and I can’t speak to what happened on those shows.
And, who knows? The fact that it went unchecked for so long might be brought up in the Atlanta lawsuit, if that ever gets to court.
