CBS This Morning now has audio from Omarosa Manigault Newman of what she says is a conversation between Trump campaign officials about the existence of and potential spin on an Apprentice tape in which Donald Trump uses the N-word. A development that will shock precisely no one and change absolutely nothing.
I bring this news to you as some one who formed a Madonna lip synch club in the 4th grade (personal solo: "Fever"). I believe Madonna is indeed an icon. I also believe that in a sincere but ultimately desperate quest for relevancy, Madonna is now throwing every pseudo-provocative soundbite she can in a drive to hype…
Ugh! This week has been so hard.
Through a statement released to E! News and a post Instagram, Justin Bieber apologized for a second offensive video that shows him using the word "nigger" and joking about the KKK.
Earlier this week, video of Justin Bieber telling a joke with "nigger" in the punchline surfaced online. Turns out, there's more where that came from.
While you were at Pride this weekend covered in rainbow body glitter and making out with everyone, Paula Deen was busy figuring out how to harness the Supreme Court's pro-gay marriage ruling to her advantage. You read that right — because of last week's SCOTUS beatdown of Prop 8, the world's most delicious-smelling…

Some Americans are going out of their way to patronize Paula Deen's restaurant The Lady and Sons in Savannah, Georgia to support Deen in this difficult, deep-fried-racist time — some of whom even plan to boycot the Food Network for dropping her in the wake of the controversy. If you were curious, "Most of [these]…
Lisa Lampanelli, a comedian who's the self-proclaimed "queen of mean"*, is over on Twitter being a real idiot. Her psuedo provocative act is tiring, and this is really, really not OK. No matter how many times she talks about how she slept with a black man, the n-word is still off-limits. Let me try to put this in…
Usually the only controversies Gwyneth Paltrow deals with have to do with cookbooks and juice cleanses, but she stepped in a real mire this weekend when she tweeted the n-word. It happened on Friday night when Gwyneth was in Paris and joined her BFF Beyonce for Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch the Throne tour stop. While…
We received multiple tips today with links to an online store that calls itself the Abercrombie & Fitch Outlet, to a product in the store called "N***** Brown Pants." Using a racial slur as a youthful, carefree, and edgy touch in a product name would be a totally fucked up, racist thing for Abercrombie to do — if the…
A white teacher in Chicago was suspended for using the n-word in class. Now he's suing, claiming he was teaching an important lesson. But the school's principal has a different memory of what went on.
Dr. Laura's still playing the victim — this time on the Today Show, where she went on and on about the "shark frenzy" over her use of the n-word. She also talked about being "assassinated."
Next month Professor Alan Gribben and NewSouth Books will release an edition of Huckleberry Finn that replaces the "n" word with "slave." Gribben says "textual purists will be horrified," but the slur is preventing schools from teaching a classic.
California's gubernatorial race has momentarily shifted from Brown vs. Whitman to slur vs. slur. Go go Oppression Olympics!
The caller who received Dr. Laura Schlessinger's racist rant last week told CNN she doesn't accept the radio host's apology — and did a great job explaining why the apology was bullshit in the first place.
Dr. Laura Schlessinger has announced she's leaving radio — not because she feels bad about using the n-word, but because her First Amendment rights are being "usurped."
Dr. Laura Schlessinger has issued an apology for repeatedly using the N-word on her show on Tuesday. But her racist rant isn't really the kind of thing you can apologize for.
Having already offended Italian-Americans, Jersey Shore is moving on to another ethnic group. In a video on her MySpace page, new addition Deena Nicole Cortese says, "And now we're gonna play you out, n***a! Do not try to play us!"
