What We Think

‘The Wendy Williams Show’ is about as far from woke scripting as TV gets. There’s little to no grandstanding on identity or ideological issues, just celebrity chatter with Wendy’s personal flair. Nothing to get worked up over here.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

As a daytime talk show centered on celebrity gossip and interviews, the focus is squarely on entertainment and personality. Issues of forced representation or ideological meddling are virtually absent, as the show succeeds or fails on Wendy Williams' charisma. Storytelling isn’t really part of the equation here.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show rarely delves into deeper cultural issues or seeks to undermine traditional values. While Wendy’s frank persona sometimes pushes boundaries, overall, the program remains apolitical and doesn’t attempt to subvert or mock traditional family, religion, or masculinity.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative or traditional viewpoints aren’t really targeted. The show just isn’t a serious enough forum for ideological messaging, focusing instead on entertainment, gossip, and light commentary. There's little evidence of ideological lecturing or monoculture.
