:He was popular for his rough jabs, like [[Don Rickles]] was, but he stepped on the wrong toes this time. Advertisers starting pulling out, and that's what networks respond to.

There you go again, Poor Ed, setting up straw dogs of imaginary events that never happened to criticize liberals in your akward way. Niggardly? Pathetic. Where I come from calling a woman a whore is not acceptable. Obviously in your universe it is just an amusing joke, and criticism of it is termed a "witch hunt". And if you don't know why calling an African-American woman "nappy headed" is racist, you are not qualified to edit your own diary, not to mention an "encyclopedia".
