This man has the sensitivity of a tarantula.

This has always gone on in Hollywood. It has gone on in any high-powered, highly lucrative arena where the perceived power of the men who are rainmakers makes them untouchable. Complaints would almost certainly mean job loss and blackballing; many people cannot afford to be unemployed - and unemployable. Men who taste…

She’s a beautiful girl, and the fact that she’s a blue-eyed blonde isn’t important. Maybe Wendy is jealous?

Eight seasons; it’s a good run. Time to shut it down now.

This is silly. In context, he was attempting to show his lack of bigotry.

This is despicable. However, I wouldn’t characterize everyone who opposes illegal immigration as racist.

Yes, and how can he enjoy the trophy anyway? He knows he didn’t win. Not an enjoyable experience for anyone.

White people? Judging from the names of the journalists, they are white, Arab and Asian. The term “non-blacks” is more appropriate, no?

Many answers here support the use of violence. Is that really an image black people want to project in a society that already considers blacks incredibly violent?

If SC doesn’t have a single sanctuary city, what is the point? Are there any cities considering adopting that policy? If so, I haven’t heard of it.

Sorry, but I’m betting the white teacher never made such a connection. If slaves were kept on toddler leashes I’m not aware of it. The result, of course, will be no black children involved in any role playing assignments. Bet nine year olds will really appreciate that.

I think the flop call is based on its $150 million production cost.

Once again, the legacy of us white folks in the US.

And the remarks on Snapchat? Pretty obviously racist. Don’t kid yourself; their intent was not innocent.

Exactly.

As a high school principal, I must tell you that the school board response here is the best choice. It makes the school’s position crystal clear, sends the strongest message, and is the only guarantee that the incident will not be repeated with future classes. The kids who pulled this stunt aren’t going to feel good…

I actually checked to see if this was published by The Onion. Evidently not, but it gave me a good laugh anyway.

Perhaps it isn’t baffling. Perhaps their surveys/research show that Dove is purchased almost exclusively by whites and East Asians, and almost never by blacks? In which case,their marketing campaign has concluded successfully.

My impression is that many films, especially the blockbusters, make the majority of their money overseas and gave done so for a while.

It’s not a documentary, or even a serious “film” but it’s a rollicking good time; we really enjoyed it. Sometimes, diversion is the best entertainment. Nice to see Cruise using his skill set, too. Take it for what it is, and you’ll consider it money well spent.
