Whilst I completely agree that the radio presenter was well out of line, I cannot understand why the people like the Rev. Sharpton(?) who are condemming him are not grandstanding over the lyrics of songs MTV , TV and Radio stations or the degredation of women on the accompanying videos.
Why is it ok for a Black American performer to refer to late teen girls as "Hohs" but not a White American?
Seemes to me we should all be up in arms about the way women and teens in general are portrayed in the media, not jumping down this man's throat as if her were the only one.
Can I have you opinions please?

I cannot stand the double standard involved here. It just annoys me to no end to hear someone degrade women and get away with it, but say anything degrading about a black person and they practically have to run for their lives. Bigotry is bigotry. We either tolerate it or we don't.
I mean to start my own little campaign now. I think I shall find every misogynistic song out there and express outrage, OUTRAGE I SAY!!!, over such vile words being spoken about women. I hope to point out the ridiculousness (is that a word in Engelska?) of this entire thing.
The first amendment should not be subject to such twisting, in my opinion. We all either have free speech, or we don't. The color of your skin should have no bearing on what you are "allowed" to say.

you are honestly not going to sit here and tell me that white males respect women 100% just because they dont talk about them in their music?
