^The same could have been said about minstrel shows. Or Birth of a Nation. The words and images put out there over and over and over again are never just entertainment. And I don't see how defending their use would change the image of Black people. On the show we're talking about, Ludacris did not say "I talk about women that way just for entertainment", he said "I talk about women that way because that's how they act." All that did was reinforce the minsconception.
