Brehs the Onion just jumped the shark

[the next guy]

This is the fakest fake outrage ever. You would make bob coastas seem genuine in contrast.

Oh Im not mad, I'm just saying. Everybody else is pissed though.

I don't think it's funny and they definitely shouldn't target a 9-year old with a word like that. Definitely tasteless.

FWIW they have deleted the tweet already

Two losses for me today. I am retiring from thread making today. at me.

I think you need to look up what "Jump The Shark" means.....

Don't you think that was a little far?

"Fake outrage" is the most typical response to everything race related. Because people aren't allowed to be mad at things. They called a 9 yr. old a c*nt. That isn't even satire.

The shyt isn't cool at all with what they said.

The reason folks call it "fake outrage" because everyone is just gonna bytch and tweet about it from the room. There will be no active boycott. No march in the streets. Nothing of that nature. I mean... I never read them so I'm cool with being against them. But the question is... what are people going to do about it?

When you figure out that answer, you'll know why it's called "fake outrage."

Nothing about that tweet, as offensive as it is, was race related. Yet the first comment in here is "they wouldnt' say that about Dakota Fanning".

the onion only makes fun of black people.

It's an online publication. The way you show outrage is by tweeting/emailing, etc. It isn't ABC or NBC.

If no one tweeted them about it they'd think the joke was alright.

Have to agree with this.

the joke is in bad taste not because she's black..

but because she's a little girl.

She was the youngest actress nominee that came to mind.

YOU mentioned race.

THEY'VE SAID MUCH WORSE THINGS OVER THE YEARS, BROTHER! IF YOU'RE OFFENDED, YOU ARE THE PUNCHLINE, DUDE!
