[QUOTE="Dega Moo, post: 1030344, member: 19930"] I think TFN made some pretty simple dollar and cent decisions and when they let Paula D go it was a pretty simple exercise of capitalism. She did a great job of neutralizing what could have been very bad press. Some other network with a broader demographic and broader viewership will probably pick her up since the dollars will work out for them. In the end she may be better off. With that said, I think someone needs call BS on the notion that the N word is just another word descriptive of a specific subset of the population. The connotation of the word is as derogatory and foul as any word in the English language. I'm rather certain most folks here and elsewhere don't really believe it's nothing but an equivalent to "white trash". That's just a lame rationalization. And I don't care that some blacks use the word themselves - it's still not right and that doesn't make it acceptable. So I'm calling BS on anyone using the N word or defending the use of the N word or minimizing the connotation of the word. You know better! [/QUOTE]
