Reply #450: Think about this for just a second...

AA management had exclusive rights to the taping of the show. They put the clip up, they distributed it, they "created" the outrage. Who's the real "whore" here?

As for this site. We go by rules, and the post you cited would most likely get locked or deleted. but those who saw it and got offended, would undoubtedly carry it over in another thread...that's why "once it's out there" is a staple. At the same time, we expect people to alert on such things...but most people here figure that once it's dealt with, that should be the end.

This isn't happening in this case, it is being driven forward by some entities, it is not being allowed to die off. AFAIC people can post about this till the cows come home, but the point is, there are, in all seriousness, far worse items written on the pages of DU that what RR said. Just take a walk through GD-P...some people treat the threads as if they were a sewer. The rarity of positive posts about candidates is incredible, and with each passing day, people find new and somewhat more interesting ways to soil the candidate that is not of their choice.

That is why I find all of this somewhat spurious.
