Tip for TV journalists: if you want to know about whether or not a place is sexist, the best person to ask is a probably not one of the legislative branch's most clueless men. Read more
I haven't seen the photos, but that doesn't matter. If she ASSERTS that she is the copyright owner under the DMCA, then they must act accordingly or lose safe harbor. That's how the DMCA works. Period. An ISP(what the porn site qualifies as) is not a judge and cannot determine who does or does not own copyright for… Read more

He has a point. And I'm sure he would agree with me when I say that I've never met a white man that wasn't racist, therefore all white men are racist. Right? Read more

Please don't forget Citizen Ruth when bringing up the subject of abortion and comedy!
I'm sure it's not just her but tv execs being total cowards. I wish it weren't such a taboo subject outside of political discussions. We need more "Obvious Child", more abortion jokes, more abortion story lines in tv shows that don't involve women agonising over the decision or feeling guilty about it or regretting … Read more
Yeah, that's not the right way of talking about the issue. If Mindy doesn't want to address it on her show, that's fine. Some comedies don't tackle serious issues. But the abortion episodes in Sex and the City and Girls worked well enough, even though both shows shied away from having the character follow through with… Read more
So, I agree there are ways to mention it in a sitcom but I think the show would have to have a good reason to use it because it IS an important issue. I think it could be fit in somehow and have wondered this myself before about the show. Read more
