Freedom of speech or not?????

who is "keaton?"

Last time I saw her I thought she was looking for Mr. Goodbar.

My question is, should D. Keaton be allowed to get away with saying this on a network television station??? Don Imus was in all kinds of trouble for what he said, so what is the difference??? She said a word that offends many he said a word that offended many. I can understand that she did slip up but ABC should have censored it. THoughts?????​

Thought.

A. You are a frizzy-haired, redneck wh*re.

B. You have beautiful f&*^ing lips.

More offensive, A or B?

I just wonder how many of our poor, innocent babes heard Diane Keaton say the F word this morning, understood what she said, and adopted it into their vocabulary, all without ever having heard the word ever before?

They wont be poor innocent babes if this continues. Language today on TV is bad enough. I use many words but try my best to refrain around my child. THat is a decision she can make when she is 18 if she wants to be a potty mouth. Actually over New Years we declined a boat ride in the ISlands b/c the owner of the boat could not quit using the GD word. I dont like it and dont want my daughter hearing it. So now my TV should stay on kids channels all the time????


All this discusion really doesnt matter, It is against FCC law and that is it. How come peple can feel sorry for Larry Craig because of a broad Minnesota law but then this is a blatant violation of FEDERAL law and people want to defend????

Thanks for putting frizzy haired in there, I am not nappy headed but frizzy I could pass for.(ESPECIALLY on a day like this) And Redneck? I love it, I am from the South ya know. Oh well you dont know. This is your first post. to the ring!!!! Quite a first post......

Comment B really doesnt offend me but offends me that ABC would allow it to air on a morning show and it clearly violates Federal laws.

way to go diane! you are my hero!!!

ya'll need to go find something important to worry about, other than the F Bomb being uttered by a wonderful woman. how the eff did I miss this?

btw, if my little one had seen it he would have never noticed unless I reacted in a way that let him know something was horribly wrong. and I would not have done that. he does live in this world you know. its up to me to tell him, when he does notice, what the deal is about such language that adults sometimes use.

actually, we do. And the govt is selling them and not sharing with us any of the profit.

nappy headed ho is much more offensive (& thoughtless) than Keaton's stupid and thoughtless remark.
