Dolly Parton is threatening to sue "The Howard Stern Show" for manipulating recordings from one of her audio books last week into seemingly racist and sexually graphic sound bites.

Don’t threaten. Just do it. She’s a southerner. She should know that.

Get over it, Dolly. It was an obvious joke.

And by the way, the more attention you call to it, the better it is for Stern, who gets about zero press these days.

Howie’s ratings and audience must be sagging.

It's been pulled.

I heard it when he first played it.

In very bad taste.

And very funny, especially the part about Mini Pearl.

Here's the line:

"When I was a teenager I raped Mini Pearl's dead body."

Put Dolly and Howie in the Octagon, and she would rip his head off in under a minute and not break a sweat.

I did a tour with Dolly, as an audio tech, about 15 years ago. She is without a doubt one of the most down to Earth unselfish performers that I’ve ever worked with, and I’ve worked with a lot. It’s a shame that she has to put up with BS like that.

> Howard Stern, just another sewer rat.

I would have said “filthy stinking pig with a sewer for a mouth and a garbage tip for a mind.” But “Sewer Rat” works for me just fine. Sewer rat it is!
