[QUOTE="Fran, post: 35553, member: 3"] I guess I don't really care if he meant harm or not. He is old enough and rich enough to know better. He isn't trying to break into music or cover for no talent or part of the rap movement. He was degrading women especially talented, professional athletes who happen to be women. This wasn't a general comment but specific to a team of women. I can't speak about Howard Stern or rappers. I'm only speaking of this particular incident. Everything those women overcame to be the best ball players on their team was dismissed to a joke. I'm sure he is really sorry and embarassed but everyone gets consequences. Personally I don't mind that he lost his show because he referred to women as wh***'s. I'll shut up now. I know everyone has an opinion and not everyone feels that his consequence was appropriate for his behavior but I do. If anyone else refers to any woman who isn't actually working the streets as wh***'s they should be fired. We should as women,not tolerate it. in my humble opinion. [/QUOTE]
