Satire out of context is biggotry racial slurs and down right wrong!
So he comes back today obviously with the backing and support of the Toronto Sun and it's editors and adds insult to injury.
You must keep in mind that this guy claims to be a satirist and goes as far as to lump himself in with Air Farce, 22 minutes and the like a feble attempt at trying to justify his unjust comments about NL'ians. He even tries to appease some by making fun of himself as if that is going to change what he has put into print as if it wasn't in the back of his mind and was allowed to slip out.
What he is forgetting is that they all keep their satire in context, maybe even with a precursory note of situation.
If he is a sports writer why would he need to bring into question NL's morals and ethics with such issues as the seal hunt, Pogey checks, and the Failing state of our fishery as if we are the only ones to blame?
Wasn't the intent or subject of the comment supposed to be about curling and Brad Gushue winning the berth to represent Canada at the Olympics?
Why the need to degrade, slander, why the need for not so vague innuendo's and the like about all NL'ians and their place in Canada?
