If she was conservative she would be fired.....fact. It's not a fact actually, especially since it wasn't used in a negative capacity such as a direct insult. Besides, it's Walters' show - so she can say whatever the fuck she wants to essentially. Do you really think Fox News would fire Bill O'Reilly or Hannity, if they used the word to describe a legitimate news story. |

You don't think Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson wouldn't be all over Fox??? Please. |

Why does everything need to be one side of the aisle or another? Maybe we'd be better served agreeing it's a shit thing to throw around rather than point fingers for what does or doesn't happen to that person. For instance, if someone calls your mother a festering cunt, say, the appropriate thing is NOT to say "If someone said that about Rover's mother instead of Justlee's there'd have been hell to pay." Isn't that missing the point?

You don't think Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson wouldn't be all over Fox??? Please. I disagree completely. There is no way that Fox is gonna dump their biggest money makers because they mentioned the word in a news story that mentions the word. Now if O'Reilly just started using the word to describe Obama, then you would have a point. |

Now if O'Reilly just started using the word to describe Obama, then you would have a point. You are probably correct, but I guarantee that Sharpton and Jackson would demand an apology. Let's see if Barbara makes one. I don't think she should've said it. Not in this day and age. |

I think it's perfectly fine to use the word in the context that it was used - discussing or reporting a news story. |
