This is exactly what I have been saying

Lets get things into perspective.
Jade Goody has not done anything different to anyone else. We all say things, in fun or not, but it is done within our own private environment. I do not have any issue with other races or religions, as we all have the right to our own beliefs.
I feel that Jade is an innocent victim of media frenzy to get a good story.
Although not a fan of Jade, I feel she has been made a scapegoat for an error made by channel four. They know what they are doing when they select people to go on these shows, and Jade should not have been selected in the first place. Maybe they have something against her, hence all this media attention.
Jade should not have said what she did on live television, that is her error, but we should now leave her alone to get on with her life.
Maybe this is the time to rethink about these types of shows, they can be entertaining, but they can also cause problems.
I blame Channel four and the media for this current situation, and not Jade Goody, she was only being herself, although I admit it should not have been on live television.

if it was her first offence then perhaps she could claim 'media bullying'. The fact is, when she was in BB last time, she and Adele bullied another house mate, Sophie, and despite what people said, there were a lot of complaints about that, including Sophie's parents begging channel 4 to intervene.
Jade has learned nothing, she was a bully then and she is still a bully, and the media have an obligation to cover the issue since Jade believes she is the worlds 25th most influential person and therefore supposedly a 'role model'. It would be wrong of journalists etc to gloss over her behaviour, it would send out the message to all the people who are allegedly influenced by her that her behaviour and attitude are acceptable.

noticing all the fuss in the papers,and on the news,I looked in on the programe,I watched for about 5 minuits,a camera was showing someone asleep nothing else just someone asleep.no activity,no racial discrimination,just someone asleep.So I can only quote the news reports,can any body tell me where the discrimination is.all i could see was people that did not like each other arguing,or have people now got to phone some organisation or such to find if what they are about to say is going to upset a small minority of the of the population.

Maybe the action of the press is to tell us how much they disagree with her...and the more heavier they go at it, the more us readers are - er - 'satisfied', but as reported, when the fuss dies down, how long will it be before they're knocking on her door offering her a post as weekly 'columnist'? It may be bullying - but they have to act like this to jump onto the 'ooh, isn't she nasty' bandwagon in order to gain readership.
Eden...top lass! She has form in bullying, and I'm surprised nobody has picked up on that

it is but some would say deserved. it has been blown out of proportion but also raised issues which are very relevant in society. you could argue it wouldnt have happened if it was a less poular reality TV show or it wasnt Jade but as she's made about £4m from being a below average intelligence , ignorant individual with no obvious skills , i have no sympathy. she was made famous by Tv , now she's feeling a backlash. the media love to build people up then knock them down.

No. Its just showing what she is really like. If she wasn't a bully then they wouldn't have had anything to report would they. By showing her for what she really is, hopefully everyone will stop backing her up and buying her products etc, therefore send her back to where she came from, KNOWHERE. Give her exactly what she deserves.

I hadn't thought about it like that, but now that you mention it, I think you're right. The newspapers have completely blown everything out of proportion and now they are on a Jade attack.

yeah, blatenly, which makes the media as bad as her, although she wasn't quite as bad as bb made it look

Yes it is
Jade has been the victim of a whole nations bullying and I hope that the guilty partys are very proud of themselves.
