Hi Melissa,

Are you ever told by MSNBC not to report on certain thing? What is the rationale behind the requests?

YES! Omg how could I have forgotten that detail? Anyway, I feel like thought the killer might be Ken for half a second, then figured out it was the cousin. And that's when Ken is first on the show I think but I could be wrong, and after that they pull him back because of course he does somehow know every gay person in…

You're so right! But I think Ken is also around for the episodes where his cousin killed a bunch of people, right? The cousin makes a full confession, then somehow gets it chucked out.

Was this necessary? Or are you just a fucknut?

well,i get carded whenever i buy cigarettes or alcohol (for other folks) so i guess i'm just dealing with rude folks? darn.

It's both - mainly the accent. I grew up in the midwest and went to school in western NY, and it's a mishmash of all of the TERRIBLE ways you can pronounce words and vowels. Plus her vocal fry. Plus I just don't think she's that insightful.

COULD YOU BE TALKING ABOUT ZOE CHASE AND HER TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE VOICE?!!??!

behind-the-scenes

Does anybody remember a video posted here years ago (2010?) of her arriving late to a photo shoot and how everybody was kissing her ass so hard it was weird to watch? I obviously don't remember the words used but in my mind it was something like "oh, thank god the queen arrived. You are the most beautiful person I've…

"I am a strong woman... I have a WEAK MIND!"

Kate I have a fun fact for you!!!! Christopher Sieber (dad from two of a kind/ Gaston) actually met his husband when they were both in the show you saw! They got married in 2011.

Wait, I am so confused. What is the purpose of having a women's only online college?

The offensive line was taken out of context, where it spread like wildfire. In the actual show, its use as satire is crystal clear. When tweeted from a corporate account without the context of Dan Snyder's racist-ass organization it is completely devoid of its context and thus just an immature racist joke.

First, you know that there's an italics option in the formatting options? The slashes are irrationally bothering me.

And what I'm replying with is that the whole concept of parody being racist is about not the feeling it gives people, but the content. I get that the actual target of the joke is Dan Snyder and not…

So racism is okay as long as it's "ironic." Excellent! Who gets to decide if this is being done correctly?

Great, another white person telling brown people to shut up. How rare.

Here are two things I'm pretty sure I know to be true:

How many articles have been on Jezebel about doing racism satirically is not okay? Why does Colbert get the "hey, everybody calm down" treatment? Because it's done better? Because he's funny? I don't get it.
