Given that: frankly people say all sorts of things privately and to have taped a private conversation and make public and be judged publicly is ridiculous.
I have a lot of respect for Roy Innis, too.
What a racist pig! Telling his son that he is going to fire him if he keeps dating a black girl. I hope he loses his show, his house and his money.
Good for his son for turning in the tape (I assume.) At least he didn’t inherit his daddy’s stupidity.
And to think I used to like Dog and felt sorry for him when his daughter was killed. He is person non grata now.
It is if they are white or they can be any race and offend a queer.
I would like to know confess before the FR world that I wardaddy have used about every nasty term known for every group known to man when I am angry at said group or individual and especially if things were getting physical.
Somebody calls me a white mfing cracker and I figure they can handle being called the word that shall not be uttered.
I was spanked if I used that word as a boy.
I have said bad things about women too.
And worst of all, I spank my kids and I kicked a dog once...a big dog.
There I feel better now. I'm ready for my rehabilitation camp.
I guess no black person of note is against their daughter dating a white guy.
or at least they are not taped..lol
Spike Lee and Dog should talk to these kids.
Skeptical.
I’m not offended by it because I chose to not listen to it. It was a private conversation between adults and as far as I’m concerned it doesn’t exist.
OTOH I have thought about what the word might be and now I should probably be punished for thinking it.
I love racial indignation....it’s so...tolerant...lol
Your tagline absolutely “hits the nail on the head”. Bless you brother.

Thanks Dave.
I despise PC police but if it gets Dog’s show off Arts and Entertainment then the dark cloud may have a silver lining. I can remember when A&E actually was a network relating to arts and entertainment. Not a ghetto for cheap sleazy heavily scripted reality shows.
Perhaps the network’s Imus crawl on your belly apology might include producing some new shows aimed at people who can read. Sort of like the old days, like 1998.
“They’re blowing this way out of proportion. He’s just explaining why his son can’t keep working for him if he keeps dating his current girlfriend.”
“So now private conversations between adults are a reason to silence someone.”
No, A celebrity who is stupid enough to say racist comments in private conversations that were recorded and sold to the press which causes potential loss of advertiser revenue and bad PR for the media broadcaster is reason to “silence” him/her.
Heard a bleeped version on radio news this morning. It sounded like any parental advice and you can bet the Queen of England uses forceful language now and then and Hillary!08 does, too even when she knows there are open mikes. Maybe not everybody agrees in detail with the philosophy, but reality has a way of speaking louder than philosophy.
I am tired of seeing the phrase “N-word” and solely the phrase “N-word” in stories about someone uttering or attempting to ban the word “nigger.” Like the word or not, a newspaper is supposed to report—not dance around a topic. What’s next? “Yul Brenner died after a long battle with the Big C. The Big C claims xx number of lives a year.”
I always liked his show. I’m sorry to find out that he’s a racist.
