Wait... Fran Drescher, as in The Nanny, is a senator?

[–] baconeater@lemm.ee 68 points 1 year ago (1 children)

She is the current president of Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA)

[–] RagingNerdoholic@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Ah, okay. The title's phrasing was entirely misleading.

[–] baconeater@lemm.ee 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah from the article it seems the "senator" is a reference to Bernie Sanders.

A more accurate title would read as follows:

Fran Drescher the SAG-AFTRA president and Bernie Sanders the "fiery Senator" discuss 'fight against corporate greed' and Bob Iger amid actors' and writers' strikes.

She's the senator of my heart.

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

She’s on there right side of this, but she ain’t perfect. She was trying to push a bunch of anti-vax crap on the her during the height of the pandemic.

[–] derpo@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

That’s an inaccuracy. She is definitely not a senator https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fran_Drescher

[–] Claidheamh@slrpnk.net 7 points 1 year ago

No, for some reason the OP conflated her with Bernie Sanders, who was interviewing her.

[–] rm_dash_r_star@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

No, but being a union leader is a segway into politics. Fran Drescher for President! Seriously, I'd vote for her.

That part was added by the bot.

It's probably some shitty chatbot thing where it just makes shit up sometimes.

No. It isn't a shitty chatbot that makes shit up sometimes. Garbage in, garbage out. I merely repost from reddit.

Actually yeah, it is.

You just seem to get really upset when people point it out.

All the comments are either that, or it glitching out and spamming replies

Hey, let’s not be racist against chat bot, we are people too.

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

No, you're thinking Love Boat's Gopher or Dukes of Hazzard's Cooter. But the former was caught in a mild scandal and resigned out of shame. So, not a Republican, then.
