Saying :"BULLSHIT" makes you "foul-mouthed"?
Oh, come one. Focus on the substance of what Kim Gandy is saying! She doesn't know what she's talking about.
Saying "bullshit" is the least of her sins.
"Saying :"BULLSHIT" makes you "foul-mouthed"?"

Depends on the context. In a public forum it typically would be considered foul language. I doubt if Malzberg would have called her on it if the discussion was just between him and her.
But I agree with your sentiment that this was about a lot more than a foul word....Gandy is a freakshow as are all the current NOW members.
Now you've used that curseword twice. Do you feel better now?
>> Saying :"BULLSHIT" makes you "foul-mouthed"?
Yes. In point of fact, it does.
Look, you can't decry the NYT and their ilk for their factually errant op-eds and slanted "reporting", then, when somebody actually calls a spade a spade, turn on them for that. You simply can't have it both ways without being a hypocrite.
So, choose up. You either have to side with the Lamesream media or accept that alot of Conservatives who share most of your core political philosphy are also clean-living people who take exception to expletives and will say so once in awhile. AFAIK, nobody's out to pass a law to force you to restrain your tongue; decent people mostly revere the Constitution enough to simply expect that you'll exercise the good sense and self-governance to do that on your own, and, if you don't, will bear with your outbursts and say nothing. So, in trade, when someone does comment about it, just take it with grace, acknowledge the truth and move on, secure in the knowledge that nobody's going to cuff you and drag you kicking and swearing to the altar rail at church next Sunday.
We've far larger fish to fry.
sounds like you are the one focusing on it.
