Today the Enquirer, garbage rag that it is, published a PRIVATE conversation that was between Dog and his son. This scum-sucking, bottom-feeding, so-called "News" paper is lower than I can imagine. I rejoiced when Dan Rather, that king of yellow journalism, went down in flames. It appears that tainted "broadcasters" are misinterpreting yellow as "Golden". Dog's show is right atcha, honest, you get what you see TV. A & E is making suspension noises, those cowardly idiots. I am starting to foam at the mouth, so I'd better stop here.

I just listened to the tape.

The fact remains that this publication only exists because of the millions that love to read about what goes on in other people's lives.

I'm not defending them, as I am no fan of the Enquirer.

A lot of publications, news anchors, radio broadcasters are into the sensationalism as that is what they have deemed sellable. I've even seen a person on the weather channel practically drooling whenever there is a hurricane. I'm going to take a stand here. What was said was during a private phone call. The context may or may not upset people. The fact still remains that the conversation was private. From there we go into personal rights. Now I hear that A & E has indeed suspended production.

And yet, Don Imus is coming back. Go figure.

Sorry, Mae...considering that Dog was only sorry because he was "outed" on the honest, sincere and heartwarmingly unique way (sarcasm mine) he expresses his vile contempt for Black people, I have NO sympathy for him. And I'm saying that as nice as I possibly can.

Don't get me wrong, I have no respect for the Enquirer and their ilk either. But when you have a lesser view of certain group of people and you're a celebrity, you really need to do some soul searching for the progressive better of self or keep your world small, tight and under control. Shoulda kept it private. Like, private to HIMSELF.

So you're mad at the publication, but not mad at Dog for being, quite obviously a racist? He entered the public eye willingly, and when a person does that they had better know that they give up a certain amount of privacy.

I feel no sympathy for any racist who gets outed.

I have a hard time feeling sorry for him. I do have to find it kind of ironic that the call was to tell his son to break up with his black girlfriend because she might tape them using the N word at the office and that would make him look bad. Then his son ends up selling the taped conversation.

Booger, that was my problem with the whole scene too. While I don't appreciate that this is a time when private phone conversations (remember Alec Baldwin) are being broadcast as acts of revenge, I also think that if you spew hate it will catch up with you eventually, in some way.

This is the first I've heard of it, but I couldn't agree more with you Lil.

Mae, would you feel the same if the 'private' conversation had been about fancying children?

As far as I'm concerned, racism, sexism, sizeism, whateverism, is not acceptable and people who hold those views do not belong on TV.
