Jane Fonda Drops the C Bomb on the Today Show
photo courtesy of PR Photos/www.prphotos.comJane Fonda may be getting older, but she’s not getting any wiser with regards to being interviewed. On the Today Show, she shockingly dropped the word c**t while talking with Meredith Vieira. Someone needs to teach this aging actress some TV manners or wash her mouth out with soap. Yikes!

that is the name of the piece, though. i mean. it’s not like she CALLED someone that. the whole point of that monologue is to destigmatize the word (which i suppose i would get in trouble for typing)…
Um, who cares?
It’s just a word.
do people even watch that show anymore?
The script, if it hasn’t been censored, calls for audience participation. Have you ever repeated just one word, over and over again, until it sort of de-coupled from the language and began sounding like nonsense? It happens, and this monologue plays on that by calling for the audience to chant “Cunt! Cunt! Cunt!” along with the actress. The whole point is to neutralize a chauvinist and stigmatic word; it would completely lose its power if you couldn’t say *gasp* “The C-Word.”
That wasn’t bad. If she had called someone the C word or used it to talk about vagina or something, it would have been completely inappropriate, but she was simply saying the name of a monologue she was asked to do. I’m sure the FCC will get complaints about it, but I really think you’d have to TRY to be offended at that.
Amazing how we’ve all devolved into children. C-word, N-Word, F-Word, B-Word … ugh. When talking ABOUT a word, say the word. Otherwise, you sound like a mother talking to her child.
Here in Amherst, Massachusetts our HIGH SCHOOL is going to perform ‘The Vagina Monologues’ tomorrow night. And No, School officials are not going to issue an apology for allowing a teenager to scream the C-word in public. Yes, this is the same High School that in 1999 became the only entity in history to ban a production of ‘West Side Story’. Now you know why I call my Blog “Only in Amherst!”
Her mere existence is comical since she should be executed on live TV for high treason. The cunt herself would not even be alive if I were president.
Where is Rev. Al???? Im Outraged! Fines and Firings coming soon…Im Outraged
…and she said it so nice and easy, like she’s said it before.
She’s probably been called one enough, she’s jaded about it.
