You've got to be kidding. Do you seriously think that because 'we all know about it', it happened? Do you seriously believe everything you read on the internet?
I'm not sure what incident of which you speak, but it's been determined the word the little boy used was neither racial nor homophobic.
Do you not understand that the little boy used the slur on Bristol's TV reality show in front of all their viewers? It's documented on tape. There is no doubt what so ever what the kid said and how Bristol and Willow reacted to his slur. They laughed at first, by the way, then covered their mouths in shock. You want to watch the video and hear for yourself? Here you go........ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/0...n_1693681.html
Kathy Griffin's statement was tacky, but it is even more tacky of posters in this thread pretending to be outraged about this and defending Rush Limbaugh's statement about Chelsea Clinton or Sandra Fluke in the next sentence. How ridiculously partisan to only care when the person being called a ***** or a dog is a conservative. Just because you disagree with someone's political ideology does not make it okay to use slurs or call them names. If you truly were outraged about this, you would not condone one person doing it while claiming to be outraged at another for doing the same thing. Every thread about some idiotic/racist/sexist statement that Rush Limbaugh makes is dismissed by conseratives because he is an entertainer or by telling people that if they don't like it, don't watch, but when it is a Palin that it is the butt of the joke, we're supposed to be outraged. When we refer to Trayvon Martin as a child, the George Zimmerman defenders ignore the fact that Trayvon Martin was barely 17 and say that he was an adult. Yet when it is a Palin, she's an innocent child (who is still living by the way and has probably been called a ***** in the past) and we should be angry over this. Please, spare your faux outrage . This is total BS. If I had a dime for every time someone called someone on a reality show a *****...

you poor child. you've never heard of editing.
And you probably still believe the word was what was first reported, which turned out to be false. It was NOT a gay slur.
It's hard to edit when your BACKSPACE key is jammed.
Wow! That never occurred to me, but you could very well be right.
