Post TTT/O'Reilly

Last night, at my gym in 1.8% Land, I happened to catch Bill O'Reilly on Fox News. O'Reilly blasted the prom decision, but there was something that I found disturbing -- he read a letter from a viewer that compared it to black beauty pageants, sororities and fraternities.

I wasn't pleased with the writer's analogy. BTW, O'Reilly also said something like a black beauty pageant was stupid but less offensive to him than the prom party.


IMO, there's a difference between private organizations that are funded with private $$$, such as NPHC groups, than things such as the Georgia party, which essentially was school-sanctioned (meaning that taxpayer $$$ was involved.)
