From the link.....
So you use the word "nigger" 11 times within minutes on your show, and that is somebody else's fault? Please explain this again. I am having a hard time understanding this concept.
Article is here.
And guess who is defending her? Sarah Palin, who may have just committed political suicide.
What don't these 2 understand about the word "nigger"?
Now I won't go so far to call this racism, because I don't think either is a racist. Dr. Laura made a huge gaffe, in an attempt to go a bit over the top, which is what she frequently does. She needs to take responsibility for her own actions instead of blaming others. As for Palin, we already know that she is not the brightest crayon in the box. She just proved that again.
King asked how her freedom of speech was being denied by criticism of her comments, Schlessinger explained "I don't have the right to say what I need to say. My First Amendment rights have been usurped by angry, hateful groups who don't want to debate, they want to eliminate. So, that's why I decided it was time to move on to other venues where I could say my piece and not have to live in fear anymore that sponsors and their families are going to be upset, radio stations are going to be upset...my peeps, as I call them, are going to be upset."
After King referenced "This group that was after you, Media Matters." Schlessinger said, "Well, that's their job in life." She then told King that a list of advertisers contacted by Media Matters who distanced themselves from her due to her comments "proves my point."
