NBC on Fonda's "C*nt": That's News, Folks!

Despite Jane Fonda's little "rhymes-with-hunt" moment this morning, NBC says it has no plans to guard against similar morning emissions in the future.

A "Today" show rep tells TMZ, "It's a news show. There is no tape delay, and there won't be a tape delay." We also called "Good Morning America," where Diane Keaton infamously dropped an F-bomb on Diane Sawyer, and they've got no plans to delay at all.

As for CBS' "Early Show," they're also live, says a rep, and won't be using a delay. And we called the FCC a few times to see if they'll be penalizing NBC or requiring a tape delay because of Citizen Jane's slip, but so far, not a peep (or a bleep).

6. Did you say a "news" show????The only news shows are CNN, MSNBC. These are entertainment driven/Hollywood promo shows. The only news I saw yesterday was Uno the Beagle winning Westminster. Please don't insult peoples' intelligence. Katie Couric, Meredith Viera and the other retards are so in love with themselves. What is the difference between ET, Insider, Extra Access Hollywood and NBC,ABC,CBS NEWS Shows? the last three take themselves seriously.

13. .


And what, exactly, is wrong when a woman uses the word "that rhymes with Hunt" ?

I immediately think of blacks calling each other "that word that rhymes with Bigger"...

When that happens, nobody blinks...

Given the context of the conversation (celebrating "The Vagina Monologues" 10 year anniversary...) it was a word that was used in a completely appropriate manner. Deal with it, Judgmental eggheads!

15. NEWS show? Hell, even CNN only breaks news when Britney Spears is sleeping nowadays.

Let's not kid ourselves. That is not a NEWS show.
