http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/28/showbiz/joan-rivers-holocaust-joke/index.html?hpt=hp_c2 so should she apologize? Its funny people say dumb shit like that and then throw in the "my black friend" or "my jewish friend" or "my _____ friend/relative" isnt offended. just saying
they do realise its Joan Rivers right? she is well known for being offensive, so is it ok to only be offensive towards individuals, or media stuff, celeb couples whatever? of course it was bad taste, but my god.... hello????? its JOAN FRICKING RIVERS!! she's been around forever and has never been any different. and yeah, slap a ban on pretty much every comedian out there if thats the new rule. If you don't like their brand of humour, then don't watch their shows!
I like Joan Rivers. I remember when she used to host The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson(Johnny was absent). And on her show, she (comically) attacked Dame Elizabeth Taylor and Bo Derek. One night, Bo Derek was scheduled to be on the show. The two women (on the surface) were quite cordial. Bo mentioned about the jokes made about her and talked about her career. Bo mentioned that she would like to host a show and have Joan on it. Everything went swimmingly well. Joan still does her thing and used her observations when it comes to celebrities and fashion.
