Daily Gut: Janeane and Prejean

So two women are in the news today: Janeane Garofalo for refusing to apologize after calling every single tea party protestor racist – and Carrie Prejean, still, for answering a question honestly about her religious convictions.

Now Jeanane was approached by Fox New`s own Griff Jenkens, who had asked her if she regretted her blanket stereotyping. To her strange, delusional credit, she stood by her original comments: that every tea party protestor hates black people.

Meanwhile, Prejean continues to be hounded over semi nude pictures. I would call the photos topless, but technically that`s untrue, what with that target on her back (a target that was placed for holding the same beliefs as our Commander in chief).

Now, according to Griff, Janeane is so enraged at the world and the conservatives who happen to live in it – she confessed to cutting out chunks of her hair. Which is weird, because other than Fox News, no one in the media seems to be questioning her comments.

Here is a picture of Carrie, the target of vilification.

Here is a picture of the outraged Janeane. She has a job on “24.”

Let’s put both of them side by side.

Now I ask you: of the two, who`s uglier?

Is it the one who answered a question – rightly, wrongly, or plain clumsily – based on her religious convictions about the “opposite marriage?” Or is it the woman who, not off the cuff, stereotyped an entire group of people based on the fact they don`t want their taxes raised?

The point is, the media excuses Garafolo`s ugliness, because they agree with it. The witch hunt for Carrie exists only because it`s carries a stamp of approval by the media.

You can`t get much uglier than that.
