If she didn't use the word "lynch" then maybe she had a shot at being amusing but that's a career ender nowadays.

in these situations over-reacting validates the disproportionate outrage the media and sharpton tries to force on the masses...so slow your roll there, turbo.

the media thinks that by being subversive they are avoiding an outrage, when it's the opposite.

if she came on tv and said, "hey, i made some comments that were offensive to some people, i called tiger and apologized, but i'm not sorry for the spirit of what i said. in my opinion he's the best player in the world and right now, he'd almost have to be off the tour to be beaten on a regular basis."

what do the ambulance chasers have to hang onto then? nothing, she acknowledged that she made an offensive remark, and that she apologized.

it's time to dissociate the connotations of certain words when they are based 50 years in the past.

JMO.
