well you're only reinforcing her point.

Sunny isn't stupid enough to think that no one is saying it, but she doesn't want the media to reinforce it given their platform.

The media's job isn't to ameliorate the moral condition of the populace or censor the dirty elements of life, it's to provide an accurate and thorough account of reality so the people can come up with their own conclusions. I hate Lemmon and CNN because they're basically infotainment and are seeking to exploit these issues for ratings by being purposefully shocking, but they're correct on this specific issue. The media can't treat the audience like they're children, or else the audience will become like children. They have to trust that we have the ability to make sense of reality for ourselves, including the uncomfortable and dirty elements.

This would make sense and I would be all for it.... except MSM hasn't been impartial or reporting just the facts, without political, opinion, agenda or propagandist reporting generally in a long ass time.

Yeah completely agree. And that's one of the main reasons why the state of national discourse is as decrepit as it is. :scust:

MSM is totally unwatchable.

You know why it's not acceptable and why reporters don't? Because if they did, it would become acceptable for them to drop it 20 times in one segment and you'd have those Fox News clowns using it every day under the guise of "academic usage."

OT I watched this comedian roundup with a Jewish guy and of all people Paul Mooney. Jewish comedian said it maybe 5-10 times right in front of him under that same kind of reasoning. It wasn't 6 months after that Mooney came out talking about he'd never use the word again.
