Has she made mistakes? yep. so has peeler and others. not like she knew at the time that the woman had breast cancer.
OK, let me get this straight. Jackie owns a work out center; promotes it on her reality TV show, advertises and promotes improving one's mental and physical well being, and even dedicates a large part of her show to helping the obese make a new life for themselves.
But, it's ok that she can make fun of another woman's body, who's working out in HER gym, as long as she didn't know that the individual had breast cancer beforehand? It's also ok that she's never apologized for herself, or her employee, for making the demeaning comments about a woman working out in HER gym on national television? It's also ok that her actions are totally contrary to everything she claims to be about and promotes? It's ok that she goes on to fire another employee because he questioned what happened in this particular incident, not because of some other reason for firing him?
Yes, everyone makes mistakes, but people also try and make amends for their actions. Jackie has not ever tried to make it right, apologized, or taken responsibility for for what she's done. In fact, she continues to lie about it and brush it off as "no big deal".
Jackie has not been accountable to what happened in HER gym, nor even vocalized any remorse over what happened by her own, and others, actions involving the demeaning of another woman. The breast cancer only makes it worse, but is not the sole reason everyone is so upset. You'd think that upon learning that the person she had made fun of was a breast cancer survivor she'd of bent over backwards to apologize over what had happened. But no, Jackie is above all that.
I refuse to watch Work Out as to me, that means I support someone who would do that to another and I just won't.
