Becky is going from the full
house to the big house.
>> Late night media -- Lori
Loughlin smack in the middle of
the biggest admissions scandal.
Joining us from plugged in,
while you were out.
We have Amanda Lewis and TV host
Mike harrow.
Thank you for being here.
How much is too much punishment?
We're seeing sponsors start to
drop like flies, Netflix pulling
out the episode fuller house.
Advertisers are cutting ties
with Lori Loughlin.
What they did, of course,
horrible, they're being judged,
but they haven't gone through
the court system yet.
Are we judging too harshly in
some ways?
>> I don't know.
I think if the punishment fits
it, you have to do it.
It would be the same for anybody
else.
I think they should have the
same punishment as anybody else
who lied, cheated the system and
got caught doing it.
They got caught.
>> Do they go to jail?
>> Well, I think it's necessary
right now as far as endorsements
are concerned because it's about
image.
Sponsors want you to represent
what they represent.
I don't think hallmark makes a
card for fraud, I'm sorry, they
don't.
>> They're going to now.
>> They might make a card for
fraud.
Going to jail?
>> Maybe they're into the crime
thing.
>> Maybe some clc thing.
I think as far as jail is
concerned, I don't think that's
good enough for them.
What are they going to do, go to
a country club where the worst
thing that's going to happen to
them, I don't have enough sugar
in my lemonade?
White collar jail is not good
enough.
I need them to pay a healthy
fine.
I'm talking about a 7-figure
fine.
Give that money since they care
so much about education, give
that money to school systems
across the nation and allow
under privileged kids who can't
afford to go to these colleges
and education in the form of
scholarships.

>> I agree with that.
I also think they're losing a
lot already.
I don't know when you say enough
is enough.
I think as a society, we like
punishment.
You can look around and see
that's true.
We want people to pay their fair
due when they mess up.
Maybe after a lot of this clears
up we'll get to a sane place and
figure out what exactly is fair.
>> We were talking earlier in
our meeting this morning there
are people who make sizeable
donations, buy a building for
$500,000 and that helps get
their kid into that school.
That, of course, is legal.
It's ethical.
You know, there's a question, is
that fair, too?
>> I don't even think we're
dealing with fair in our society
any more.
People who have money can do
different stuff.
It's part of the reason kids are
motivated to be rich.
Things they can't do when
they're broke.
We start living like that or
hold people to a standard --
>> It's not just about the
money.
It's about the influence.
When you're a celebrity, you can
get your kit into certain
schools that other people can't
get their kids in schools.
I come from the sports world and
I've seen celebrities get their
kids scholarships.
I'm not going to bring up any
names because there is a rapper
who's kid went to UCLA a couple
years ago.
They were saying maybe he didn't
deserve to have a foot ball
scholarship at that time.
>> We all know these people.
>> Sounds like it, but at the
same time, a lot of people
saying he didn't deserve that
foot ball scholarship.
He got in there, it didn't work
out for him.
His name was Sean combs, he was
able to get his kid in the
school.
>> We do work hard for a reason.
He has worked hard, he has
money, he should be able to use
that, but how far should that
that's the question.
How far do we allow that?
The legal line is the real
terminating factor.
>> The problem is are you taking
away from somebody who actually
deserves to have that
scholarship?
>> That's the question.
Even if you're buying a building
or if you do have that influence
because of your status or
whatever, are you potentially
taking that spot away from
somebody who doesn't have the
privilege?
I mean, we know that's what's
happening.
>> This is something that's
personal for me, Natalie.
I have a high school senior.
My youngest daughter is in high
she's a straight a student.
I'm not saying that because
she's my daughter.
>> You're proud of her.
>> She does her thing, but right
now she's applied to nine
colleges.
She's gotten four that she
applied to that she's heard back
from now.
She got scholarships from some
of those.
Two of the schools she wants to
get into, UCLA and usc.
She should hear back from usc
any day now.
What do I tell my daughter who
has worked really hard,
extracurricular activities,
she's in athletics, what do I
tell her if she doesn't get into
usc and she knows a kid who
didn't deserve to get into usc
but got in because her parents
were able to pay for it?
>> Tell her life is not fair,
what's coming to you will come
to you.
>> An mazing good point there.
You're hosting a while you were
out.
Thank you.
Great to have you here.
Finally, we've been wanting to
have you on for a while.
>> Come on, bring me back.
>> Tomorrow at 9:00 on tlc.
One of the schools affected by
the cheating scandal, we're
going to talk to legendary
gymnastics coach who we adore
here.
>> Is she really good at
