Maybe Mushnick doesn’t comprehend his own role or maybe he just doesn’t understand context.

A racist white guy using the words of a racist black guy, effectively used as irony about how the racist black can say something racist that’s not really racist that the racist white guy can’t say because it would be considered racist.

Music is entertainment. It’s weird that some people don’t seem to understand that as it pertains to music; but no one has issues with The Wire. But maybe squawkbox is just a racist.

I, for one, DO regard young women as bitches and whores and I most certainly glorify the use of assault weapons and drugs.

Good call. Like me, you’re livin’ the dream.

No. There is no excuse for saying something racist. This isn’t a question of context. This is an asshole acting like a racist. He should be called on it.

Except that quoting JZ’s own lyrics is not an act of racism.

Could you have bothered to try to understand what Mushnick is saying before wrongly killing his column?

Even though I don’t agree with him, I’m kind of glad he is standing by what he said.

Actually, I found his explanation after the fact as bad as what he actually wrote in the column. It showed a stunning lack of self-awareness and perspective.

First of all, yes. Jay-Z is the only NBA owner allowed to say that word.

It would devastate his clean image, but Usher probably can as well.

If that’s the worst thing you know about Donald Sterling you’re missing out on some great racism and terrible PR

But I thought super rich people are by proxy morally superior beings? Surely this must be a slander campaign by jealous poor wenches.
