Thank you, Joy Behar!

Nurses Humor

Published

If you caught The View yesterday, you saw Joy Behar ask of Miss Colorado (Miss America contestant) and nurse, "Why does she have a doctor's stethoscope around her neck?"

Our friends at Gomer Blog couldn't resist.

I think I'll order one custom-made with assless chaps. :)

No offense to any fans, but I don't know how anyone with two functioning brain cells can actually tune in and listen to those women.

I don't watch their crappy show... I found out about Joy's offensive statement right here

Same here. I didn't bother to watch it the next day either for any sort of apology.

I didn't even hear about this show until a month ago when one of my pts happened to be watching it. I wish I could get back that hour of my life...

Why would it not be in our scope of practice to use a stethoscope? I'm just curious. We were required to have one for school. How can a nurse do a head to toe assessment without a stethoscope?

It was sarcasm.

I saw that so-called apology. Raven Symone acted like she was all ticked off that nurses were upset. Then they were trying to say they were watching the Miss America Pageant and not commenting on nurses and they thought her scrubs were a costume. Are you kidding me? Then, she says I'm used to them coming out in bathing suits. They are morons, period.

It was sarcasm.

So was her post. C'mon, Cheerios, get it together!

Lol. Thanks!

She opened her mouth before putting her brain into gear, and that was what fell out.

This show thrives on snark and rude. What they didn't count on was the voice of 3 million RNs being raised in anger.

ETA: I did recognize the sarcasm. 👍
