Yes, you absolutely should be sick about it. And disgusted and outraged. Maybe I'm Pollyanna, but I hope this doesn't happen often. I'm suprised to hear it happens at a 'major cable news network', where I would assume serious ethics policies would be in place. Perhaps you'd care to take this matter up with your managers? Ick, gag me (and please, email me with further details, if you're so inclined). As for Mariah's habit of enlisting rappers, it's all about desperate efforts to broaden her reach. I'm sure we'll see the usual parade of name-brand guest stars and slutty get-ups, whatever it takes to get the cameras pointed her way." Read the entire chat here.
