*Snicker* I Just Said "Faggot" on the Teevee!

Go watch this.

Watch Beck's face when he says "naughty name."

Listen to the snickers when his guest "jokingly" dances around the slur.

Reel from this:
BECK: Do you know that “The New York Times” wouldn’t even print — I mean, we can say the word. We`re having an adult conversation here. Wouldn’t even print the word “fagot.” (sic)

GLOVER: Right.

BECK: Wouldn’t print it. I find that amazing.

Yeah, it's amazing that the New York Times would resist printing a slur, isn't it? anyway, it's not like anyone would be hurt by this... it's all just a joke! It's funny! Come on! Why is this even a controversy?

You know what's even funnier? People that watch stuff like this on television, and feel completely justified in physically attacking and murdering LGBTQ people! That's hilarious!
