Why is this now hiding in the Current Events forum?


Because rather than removing the thread outright to cries of "Censorship! Censorship!" it is instead brought quietly to the Current Events forum, the equivalent of taking it behind the barn and shooting it.

Yeah, thats exactly what we need. Bagging on women feeling good and having fun.

A genuine "take down of some hypocrites" would have been documenting the show's producers on their sex junket in the Philippines.


In the video, you can see some foreigners, and the song sounds like it's being sung in English. If a pastor referred to rock as "the Devil's music" and he was filmed at a Metallica concert, would that be "bagging on someone feeling good and having fun"? But yes, it would be better to have video evidence of the producers' doubtless room-salon proclivities.

I didn't see the show either, but from what I understand, she's not a journalist. She's a musician who's also a talking head on TV. She probably has very little to do with the material she presents. < ... >


Yes, exactly. As the singer for Clazziquai, this is not her full-time job. She could have turned down MC-ing this hate-speech, but she didn't. Integrity. Some people have it, some people don't. If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.
