You Decide -- Did We Go Too Far?

Posted Apr 1st 2008 5:08PM by TMZ Staff

6:30 PM UPDATE: OK, POINT WELL TAKEN!

The TMZ newsroom is split -- half of us (like a lot of you commenters!) think the last line in the Elliott Yamin article was way out of line, the other half, well, not so much.

What do YOU think? Was it in bad taste, or just a joke? Polls close at 6:30 PM ET. Majority rules. If 51% say take it down, we will.

2. Yeah talk about being insensitive.

That is horrible.

You guys should totally take that down, and try to respect people a little bit.

I love tmz, but that is ridiculous.
