Sounds like a ruling that will eventually waste the time of higher courts, costing countless taxpayer dollars, and generally wasting everyone's time. On Tue, Feb 26, 2013 at 9:45 PM, Trevor Tymchuk wrote: > A man told his wife, who was at the beach and wearing a bikini: “You’re fat. > You look pa

[TV orNotTV] Judge Vince A. Sicari Can’t Play TV Bigot, New Jersey Argues - NYTimes.com

A man told his wife, who was at the beach and wearing a bikini: “You’re fat. You look pathetic. You look stupid.” He added, in case his point had not been made clear, “You look like Shamu.” The remarks irritated the woman and, presumably, the TV audience at home watching in 2010. The man and woman

Sorry if I was unclear. I don't find the broadcast itself immune to criticism or comment -- anyone who was on my FB feed will testify to that. That's what we're here for. I do think it's silly to attribute great social import to the things that are said and done on the Oscarcast. What I am gra
