Re: Refusing to print or say "nigger" in reference to the incident is absurd. Rowland Send a noteboard - 03/07/2013 01:12:54 PM

Good god, yes, this is the thing that annoys me about this story. This is especially striking when compared to the media blitz four or five weeks ago when apparently network execs apparently made an opposite decision that saying "pussy" on the air was acceptable when describing the incarceration of members of Pussy Riot. Context is everything. Just as it was obviously reasonable then, the inability to say the word now is foolish.

Knowing what the word actually means would be helpful for everyone. - 02/07/2013 04:29:34 PM 691 Views

I do not buy the "everyone is somewhat racist" argument. - 11/08/2013 06:03:31 PM 619 Views
