When Whoopi Goldberg Broke My Heart

Watching The View each morning gives me hope ... hope that humans can be humane to one another despite their diverse beliefs in the causes they're willing to live and die for.

But one day, moderator Whoopi Goldberg hurt my feelings and broke my heart.

The discussion occurred during the scandal in which the New York Governor was nabbed in a prostitute sting. While referring to the sexual health of the prostitutes, Whoopi said something like, “as long as they're clean.”

Why does use of the word "clean" break my heart and the hearts of many with HIV/AIDS? Find out in Dear Whoopi and the View: What Am I, Dirty?
