Not BS. Would I be upset about this if it were happening within some family values organization trying to strip women of control over their own bodies? I’d pretty much expect it to happen there. Fox demonizes black folks, and Tantaros was right up there getting paid well to make white people terrified of people like…

It’s so poorly written that you’d think he’d be able to pay for better writers. Maybe he’s on a budget for all of the sponsorship money he’s going to lose.

Yes. Filing a false police report is a serious crime. I don’t know how much you’ve traveled internationally, darling - or if you’ve ever been accused of a crime you didn’t commit. Take those damned passports away and sort out whether a crime really happened. Locate & Co’s story of being robbed already damaged Rio’s…

Nope. Ugly Americans need to follow the law when traveling, no matter how corrupt the country they visit. The arrogance and possible making false statements? Leave your damned privilege at home, Olympians. Being named Johnny instead Jamal might be a get-out-of-jail free card in the US, but it don’t work that way…

Because you keep missing the point that one had good judgment (which helped her choose a role that one her an Oscar) and one had lousy judgment (which got her lambasted in an ill-chosen role).

There’s a wisdom in knowing what suits you or not. Someone who’s fronting fashion magazines and being the darling of fashion designers is the antithesis of what Simone was about. Zoe’s ambition exceeded her range. Halle knows her range - which is why she was given as an example of someone smart enough to steer clear…

Yeah. And one’s been dragged critically for doing a tragically bad portrayal of a legend when she should have known she was wrong for the role. It’s called self-awareness - and it helps in most careers. That’s why Halle has an Oscar.

Comparing two actresses taking on two comparably iconic roles: not weird at all. Nina Simone’s look informed so much of who she was: difficult to market as she was not considered beautiful by the mainstream, she had to mine her soul to find that beauty.

I’d be more empathetic if this woman were feeding an infant.

But the mom can’t. Speak to lactating mothers: it’s not like turning a faucet on and off.

I’m trying to understand your argument: so would the mother breastfeeding on the spot have been acceptable if the child were younger? If that’s the case, then the problem isn’t public breastfeeding at all.

Not having breasts or babies, I’ve been told by breastfeeding mothers that often the mothers cannot wait: there’s a physical response to hearing the baby cry that starts the milk flowing: http://www.babycenter.com/404_is-it-norm…

sorry, Miguel: listen & take notes...

Mama Stephanie has her own addiction issues, so it could be a mix of lousy parenting and genetics...

Great re-tooling of the Oscar Wilde quote. Kudos to you...

Scandinavia and the Netherlands are far more socialist than the US is. And they’re doing better than we are. Maybe Malia can swing over there and get some pointers to bring back to us...

Clerical duties, for one. She’s also fluent in Spanish and probably has a third language under her belt, so some assistant work would be easy for her. She’s had an excellent secondary education, which probably puts her ahead of many college sophomores. Oh, and Congressional pages are about her age, so I don’t see what…

You and me both!

Not headed for Harvard this fall. She’s taking a gap year and working at, I believe, the US Embassy in Spain. (I know more about the Obama family than I know about my own sometimes)...

Prince’s $3 million estate? Try $300 million...
