I do think it was a bit over the line to make such a joke to a person ready to head off to jail - whoever they may be.
Defending Paris Hilton
Isn't there a difference between calling yourself a "nigger" (as the always trustworthy Fox News reports she did) and calling Ray Charles a "nigger"?

Did she call someone a "nigger" like Elvis Costello did?

And I don't want to be an apologist for Mr. Costello (the only time he ever made the cover of Rolling Stone was to essentially apologize for the outburst) but the circumstances of that incident are often overlooked. I'm not saying there are circumstances where the use of that word is acceptable but as I've read it, it was a very drunken exchange of extremely crude insults between EC and the Attractions and Stephen Stills band. Sort of like "Your mama" wars. Once again, I'm not saying "It wasn't a big deal that Elvis Costello said that" but it was a drunken error in judgment, in my opinion, and not the true colors of closet racist.

But why, oh why, can't you overcome your white male entitlement hubris and ever, EVER, acknowledge that when you have limited knowledge you should just SHUT THE FUCK UP!

…white male entitlement hubris…
besides…just about everyone posts with "limited knowledge" some just admit it more readily than others
so much hating. i love it.
I don't think anybody truly hates anybody else…it's just an internet message board with people rattling off opinions. We're not sending anyone to the gas chambers or anything. I love you all.

Wow I have never seen how someone could act so low,disgusting and with no class. Sarah was one of my favorite comedians and i was really excited to see her host the MTV awards this year,as I'm a young person and really enjoy the movie awards too. I know Sarah is straight up and that's part of her comedy,but lets be real here. Paris could be the biggest slut in the world but she did NOT deserve this at all,no one does.She is a human too! Come on the girl was sitting there while she is insulting her in the meanest way in national TV, It wasn't even funny to say that they are going to paint the bar cell as penises.???? Is Sarah in drugs?? That's very rude. Did you see Paris face? you could tell she wanted to hide under a rock,she dint know what to do. I felt so bad for that girl,It looked like she wanted to cry so loud..yet she was able to control herself and give a smile. Who is the one with out class now? It just showed who really is a B. If it was me I would had stand up and smack the hell out of Sarah, What a B. I can't believe MTV let her act like this on live TV. Kids are watching this,and she's talking about penise,vagina..ext I have lost all kind of respect for MTV and many more have as well. Search around and you will see how they are many angry people regarding these awards. This wasn't entertainment this was disgusting and uncalled for. Sarah has lost one of her biggest fans. I know she always says rude stuff on her shows but this was the limit.I agree 100% that Paris deserves to go to Jail for breaking the rules,and that's fine..but Sarah comments were not. In my books Sarah has went from a professional fun comedian to a low class,rude,disgusting and wannabe funny comedian.
