Megyn Kelly and Bill Maher may not be journalists in the classic sense, but they do explore important issues in their own ways. Bill Maher used the n-word preceded by the word house to mock a Republican. Would it have changed things if hed said: I am not your house-n-word.? This is magical thinking, completely ignores context, and has a chilling effect on free speech. Ms. Kelly just interviewed Alex Jones, a disgusting lunatic with a megaphone. Thats her job! Should she only interview good people? How do we a-word-ess how bad bad people are if no one talks to them? Under the Alex Jones rule some would argue journalists should stop going to the White House.

In a world thats entertaining itself to death with trivia (whos f-word-ing who, etc), we should be grateful to anyone doing anything that has any substance whatsoever, and if they f-word up occasionally, dont be a c-word, support them. What they do is rare and hard and attacking them is censorship, however well-intentioned.

From water to willpower, weve learned that almost all resources are limited, including outrage. Children are getting bombed to death in Syria and Republicans are trying to strip healthcare from the most vulnerable people in America. For f-words sake, dont waste your outrage-energy on this Bill and Megyn s-word.
