I can't imagine that Mr. Sharpton actually WATCHED the show and is still calling for an apology. He has to be reacting to the word and his general disapproval of how Aaron uses the word in the show NOT to the content of this specific show.

For the record I do not use the n word and do not agree with those that do - BUT IN THIS CASE and in the CONTEXT of the show it was not unwarranted. I imagine if Dr. King come back he and Malcom X and others would use much harsher language.

The ironic thing about Mr. Sharpton's statment is through out the episode Dr. King himself commented/complained over and over about how his image was being (mis)used.
