I guess my thought is, the punishment for Hardaway was swift and quick. With Rosie, we've had to hear Barbara Walters make excuses and see what the court of public opinion is. Fox news and Rush Limbaugh were truly people who called her on the carpet but the street level media like music oriented morning shows didn't touch it. This morning, I heard the Hardaway comments on a Rock morning show and everyone had a comment. Hopefully, there are more people like you who take it in but make their own decision rather than be spoon fed pablum from the media. Thanks for stopping by! Good points firehunter.

The only thing is that most everyone knows that Rosie O’ Donnell is an opinionated loudmouth. I don't think that very many people take her very seriously. Some people just find her to be entertaining. I guess you can add Hardaway to the loudmouth camp as well. Also, I don't know that the double standard is as big as you think it is. Rosie got a lot of bad press for her Christian-Islam comparison, and lately has gotten generally bad press from most every source. It all depends on which newspaper you read and what news channel you watch. I agree with you. The only thing is that most everyone knows that Rosie O’ Donnell is an opinionated loudmouth.
