Good thing CBS did this in the middle of his radio-thon to help kids with cancer, instead of waiting until later tommorow or on the weekend so that he could collect more money.

I caught the sarcasm, but do you really think that the two should be going on concurrently? |

I don't think he should of got fired. Too overbored.
Hot97 in the morning says ******, nigga, what ever way they want because they are black.BUT!!!Usually it is in a context like joke, song or friendly tone. Not ex..Never using the word in a bad way"
Lets say the a white radio show host says it same way like joke or a way where is made some sense BAM he is dead.
I did not here in what context he used the quote but I am thinking why he would make fun a team that made it to the final game and lost. They are black and women. So what he said "can't really be used in a joke or good way so why did he say it"
I think an apology would of been accepted right to who he mentioned it to.
The only thing going against him mainly is he is listened to over america so I guess an apology can't reach each one. For all the people that truly hate him for saying that well it is actually showing their true colors beause some people can accept and some people just can't. Thats why he is done. Probably will show up somewhere in due time.
PS. When is all Shaprton going to apologize for the duke players he accused of rape? AND.. little tid bit to add: he payed the rest of that girls tution for her last 3 years:conf: |

yeah, it's a double standard, but it's a double standard that's been around for ages, and if you're too dumb to figure out that it exists, or you're too obnoxious to abide by it when you're in a position like he is in, then you don't deserve any sympathy. |

what i meant by "i hate black people" was
I hate people who identify themselves as being part of the "black community"
i dont hate people who have black skin, because they're just people.
but the whole "black community" is only segregating themselves from the rest of the world, and insist that "the man" is keeping them down, as they wallow in self pitty, calling white people crackas on their radio is ok though, because we used them as slaves 200 years ago. |
you dont have to qualify it |
