Dick and little Jane better toughen up. It’s a mean world out there. Granny had to learn how to keep up in this fast and brutal world and so will D&J. Good Morning America was not given a free pass, were they?They were called out on their little cracks and smug laughter. But there are countless instances of fully scripted shows, music, videos and games that are toxic. I’m not excusing this behavior, I’m saying it’s a tiny grain on an epic beach. Outrage shouldn’t be wasted on it.

Sorry, but this outrage meme is pretty lame. In effect, it denigrates those who are not willing to excuse this behavior. And you ARE excusing it when you say it happens all the time. As you called it, there is a teachable moment here. That works in both directions. All I am saying is let's move in the right direction. Media can be a force for good or bad. Train these pathetic TV hosts. Do it on air.
