Personally I can't stand this type of talk regardless of who is the subject.
It's utterly juvenile and shallow minded, and I can't believe that a show like that is someone's 'entertainment'.

Being a parent of daughters, I imagine Billy Ray Cyrus feels like opening a can of whoop-&ss on some one.

She is a 16 yo kid. No matter what..it is inappropriate for so-called adults (and I use that term loosely here) to make comments like this about a kid. End of story.

Someone making a snide comment about a teenager is not "robbing them of their innocence". That's ridiculous. You should be setting your kids up for the real world by the time they're in high school - ESPECIALLY if they are in the public eye.
I have been in a similar situation although my child isn't as famous as Miley, but also on tv, newspapers , etc...do you have any clue how harsh some people can be...I agree they have to deal with it and they do, but it is alright IMO if it is done in a decend way.

To just call some one a white ***** who should make a porn video, use cocaine, etc....that is so much bs and so wrong...and to try to get away with everything by stating "I'm a comedian"...well okay from now on I will add that title also so that allows me to insult whoever and whenever?

I don't think so!

Jamie Foxx never called her a white *****.

First of all, it was wrong to get that harsh (or dare I say real) on a 16 year old girl.

But, she is making a lot of money on her persona. I don't blame her, she is a kid and doesn't have the sense yet to understand that her father and disney are making money hand over fist on her back.
I do blame trailermulletman himself though. He is doing nothing short of wh**ring his daughter out for ready cash. Since Miley is the families cash cow, she can do as she pleases. Now to her, that probably sounds great. However, the past has shown us what happens to child stars that support their families. It rarely ends well. The names Danny Bonaduce, Patty Duke, and Lindsay Lohan come to mind.

I told my sons to never use their fists unless the other person tried to hurt them physically. Well both of them got to beat the crap out of a bully, one each, and then nobody tried either of them. Now both got in trouble with the school for what they did but they didn't get bullied again.

Whoops, I don't think you meant to deal with it with fists.

However I didn't here him shushing the female voice that did call her that. I read and read in this thread waiting to see someone mention that word.

I think that there is a double standard at work here in that black people seem to use that word often talking about women of any color but I just don't hear it used the same way among whites. When I use that word about any woman I mean something very serious and not just a figure of speech. When an obviously black woman calls that girl a white bi*** it indicates to me that she doesn't worry about race (in a pig's backside). I would like to hear her talk about her feelings about Don Imus. Was it the nappy or the ho that they didn't like? Is nappy the same as saying black?

Yes there is a racial double standard in what any of us can say in public and radio is just about as public as TV.

For people that hate both Cyrus and Foxx, this must be confusing as hell for them.
