| Shock jock Howard Stern on Monday apologized for criticizing Girls´ star Lena Dunham by calling her a ´little fat chick´ and saying that seeing her naked on the show ´feels like rape.´ The controversy began on Stern’s radio show last week, when he described Dunham as ´a little fat girl who kinda looks like Jonah Hill, and she keeps taking her clothes off, and it kind of feels like rape.´ Stern said he told his producer to contact Dunham and let her know he wants to explain and apologize for his comments.

Comments:
I never thought I would ever agree with anything Howard Stern said. Why on earth would he apologize?? He´s sure said far worse things and has not apologized.

IMO, any girl or woman with a tattoo looks cheap. I have family members who have disfigured their bodies this way, and it makes me sad because they´re not cheap. I know I´m old fashioned, but to me that only people who get a pass on this barbaric practice are sailors or other servicemen who got drunk and made a mistake.
P.S.: For the tattoo defenders, my father (an ex-seaman) had several tattoos. As he got older and his skin wrinkled, this ´artwork´ came to resemble works by Picasso or Dali. And he regretted ever getting them.

I´m not sure whether to laugh or be angry, because I´m still trying to figure out who in the world Lena Dunham is...

I have no idea at all who this "chick" is, and am not inclined to take the 30 secs. to find out-especially if she´s tattooed.

Howard apologized because he meant to say "talentless little fat UGLY chick."
The show is revolting and repulsive. And you have to see Leah Dunham naked.

Stern is a judge on one of the talent shows now, right? He probably wants to keep that job and this would definitely endanger it.
Sadly, it wouldn´t endanger it if he were talking about Sarah Palin or another conservative woman.

#4,#5: She is the ´talent´ and star of the HBO series "Girls". The TV and culture writers at the NYTimes are in a swoon over this show. They ran at least two major pieces on it last week, one in the Sunday arts section. I started watching it one time and couldn´t take more than 10 minutes. I thought that some of the principal characters are downright disgusting while the others are simply unappealing. I tried going back to a couple of other episodes and couldn´t gag down more than 5 minutes worth. I think it´s trash -- I´m certainly not a prude, but was raised in a household with decent values. The critics rave. Go figure.

you have to presume that Stern got his money chain pulled. I´m aware of her only because we caught her on tv for Obama a couple of times. Failed to make the connection. Didn´t really know anything about Girls - saw the Golden Globes show and said out loud ´´who´s that?´´
Neither husband nor dog knew...

At least in the old days, the women in love scenes were beautiful. Odd to agree with Stern, and I had search to find out who this is. Not even pretty, let alone beautiful, and porky with tattoos. Not my idea of the womanly ideal. Yuk.
So under socialism everthing is worse, the reality and they even degrade the fantasies.

Propaganda Alert!
Lena was featured in a pro-abortion scare tactic commercial for Obama... then she got a tv show to spread the propaganda further.
Hollywood knows this... so far, they´ve been supportive but when they lost their hard earned awards to a propaganda tool... it becomes annoying.
Glad to see their stupid, blind support of Obama bites them back.

No fan of Stern but his comments were right on the money.
Women must be really vapid and adrift if they think her show is in any way "empowering".
One viewing was enough for me. She really is hideous.

I´ve watched a few episodes. It seems to be about not-very-attractive young women with pinball sex lives, and the bumbling bozos with whom they collide. Sad stories of young people with no role models, no core, not even a cohesive establishment to protest. Have fun, girls. Yes, we get it. Girls smart, boys dumb.

U.S. military sources serving in North Africa are challenging the latest White House claim that the administration is applying "all the resources" at its disposal to bring the Benghazi attackers to justice, charging instead that the Obama administration knows who is responsible but is not acting. "They have let it slip by because of politics, and now we´ve taken all the correlation we had and dropped the ball because of risk (aversion) -- and now the security in Libya is more fragile than ever," one U.S. special operator told Fox News.

Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse has apologized for remarks Monday in which he linked Oklahoma "cyclones" to climate change while berating Republicans for their stance on the issue -- around the time a massive tornado killed dozens in that state. A Whitehouse spokesman said Tuesday the politically charged remarks were pre-written as part of the senator’s weekly Senate floor speech on climate change. “Tragically and unbeknownst to the senator at the time, a series of tornadoes were hitting Oklahoma at the same moment he gave his remarks,” the spokesman said.

During a panel discussion on the Department of Justice seizing the phone records of Fox News’ James Rosen, Bret Baier revealed that the seizure included the phone records of Rosen’s parents. The entire panel agreed the scandal was an outrage, with Kirsten Powers pointing out that there have been a number of high-profile leaks from the Obama administration, but the only ones they seem interested in going after are the ones that make them look bad. Charles Krauthammer found it amazing that the government would make such a “huge assault on the first amendment” in trying to

A liberal think tank with close ties to the Obama administration took money from General Motors and other businesses it did not disclose while campaigning for policies benefitting those companies, according to The Nation magazine. Members of the “Business Alliance” of the Center for American Progress (CAP) include bailed out car company GM, unsafe Bangladeshi factory utilizer Walmart, and embattled solar energy company First Solar, according to a membership list obtained by the liberal magazine.

White House spokesman Jay Carney today disclosed that Obama’s chief of staff, Dennis McDonough, and other top White House officials had advance warning that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. But he insisted McDonough and the other White House officials purposely kept Obama out of the loop.McDonough “rightly chose not to take action” to inform Obama, Carney told reporters at the daily White House briefing.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

One of the questions was whether he/she was concerned about unsecured weapons in the home. Another asked whether he/she was "in a relationship in which you have been physically hurt or are you afraid of your partner?" Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement

While many Americans were tuned into news coverage of the massive damage from tornadoes ravaging the state of Oklahoma, Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse took to the Senate floor to rail against his Republican colleagues for denying the theory of anthropogenic global warming. Whitehouse spent 15 minutes chastising GOP senators and justified his remarks by alluding to states that seek federal assistance in the wake of natural disasters. “So, you may have a question for me,” Whitehouse said. “Why do you care?
