She says she found out cast members (mostly white male) that joined the show after her were making more money than her.

They would not even negotiate with her to raise her salary.

Oh well the only answer to this must be racism, how else can it not be *sighs*

The answer to every riddle in the MF'n world, RACISM.

She was pretty good on the show though.
As far as female comedians, MADtv had several great ones. IMO.

OT question, does Hollyweird hate MADtv alumni, there are so few that have had any decent success in the biz?
