Ultimate Hypocrisy

31. First beaten by the man she's in love with and now raped by the media.

Between this and the constant reporting on Octo-mom, TMZ has sunk to a no-class, might as well be a slobby kid in his basement writing a "celebrity" gossip, trash site.

32. Listen to all the apologists on this site - "well, I cant see blod ... well, I cant see a split lip ..."

How much blood do you want to see? Would it be enough for you to see her head cracked open? Would that then warrant sending Chris Brown up the river?

Dometic violence is domestic violence - put that SOB away.

33. TMZ was mentioned on my local news 3 times this morning within 15 minutes, don't hate the player hate the game. Why is local news talking about this, Brittney, Octomom now, the octomom story is over now, now she only should be on TMZ and entertainment tonight. Our local news should be about LOCAL NEWS! I know there was gang activity in LA last night, but I do not know what it was? I know I have to see the police cheif say on commercials what a great job Anthony is doing since he is not f**cking the whore in the press anymore. But, I do not see what he is doing on our local news. I see Dr. Phil and Rhianna!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

34. So you won't eat the crow and put my last post up so everyone can actually judge for themselves?

35. #6 I agree with you. TMZ should've never posted that picture. I think it's her own personal business. I'm sure if it was someone that works at TMZ's family they wouldn't want the whole damn world seeing it. TMZ is lame and I'm not coming back.

37. TMZ is doing the public and Rhianna a FAVOR by posting this picture. We've all heard the story but noone knew the
extent of what he did to her until this picture came out. It makes it very real and domestic violence is very serious and should not be treated lightly. I'm sure there were some who felt bad for Chris Brown and what this did to his career who are now
changing their opinions about him because of this picture. No matter what the circumstances were leading up to their
argument, he should have kept his hands to himself. Besides having criminal charges pressed, there is no doubt this man
needs anger management and/or medication.

38. This is to number 15 "what the hell" can you not see the 2 lumps on her forehead, it takes alot of force to get lumps like that. Needless to say she was beaten and it doesn't matter what she did to him "to make him do that" (sarcasm) the fact is he put his hands on her mutliple times to have that many injuries.
I have deleted his songs off my ipod and change the radio when his music comes on.
I hope Rhianna does not get back with him and learns once a beater always a beater...

39. Showing her battered face isn't going to help the cause of domestic violence in this country. The above picture is an exploitation of privacy and TMZ and its affliliates will get what's do.

40. Chris Brown powinien zgnić w więzieniu za coś takiego!!!To jest niedopuszczalne, żeby tak skatować kobietę... Kiedyś lubiłam jego piosenki ale teraz wszystkie jego płyty wyrzuciłam do kosza !!!!

41. comment number 15, What The Hell guy, YOU NEED GLASSES!!!!!
The picture isn't clear due to TMZ writing, but the lip is split and twice the normal size, there are two contusions on the forehead, and both of her eyes are yellow, along with a swollen nose, look at a normal pic of her!!!! ANYWAY IT COULD BEE JUST A SLAP WUTH NO BRUISING, YOU STILL DONT PUT YOUR HANDS ON OTHER PEOPLE, OR DID YOUR MOM NOT TEACH YOU THAT!!!!! NEVER OK, WHICH IS HOW I KNOW YOU HIT PEOPLE, BC U ARE JUSTIFING IT, NOT OK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

42. " We are not going to show the photo by showing the photo"
Am I the only one confused by ABC's logic?

43. liarliar ... look up parallax error my friend. Your conclusions are all wrong since the angles of the photos (not to mention camera lens distortion) are different.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE - not pretty is it people?

44. Hypocrisy at it's best. Way to go ABC! While saying they will not air the pic, they air the pic!!! As for TMZ, that is what this site is all about, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Those of you that think it should not be posted...Hypocrits! You are looking at it! You are commenting on it! It needs to be shown so those that think Chris is getting wronged because we haven't heard his side of the story, a picture speaks a thousand words. I know there are three sides to every story, his, hers and the truth, but there is no explaining this away. This is what battery looks like. And let us not forget, that was the day it occured. Bruises get much worse in the following days. There are likely even uglier photos from the following days that you really don't want to see. But I think it needed to be shown so those of you who still think Chris didn't hurt her can see for yourselves. and so those that are in abusive relationships can see what is likely to happen to them if they don't seek help. Hers is the face of demestic abuse. Lessons are repeated until learned. Learn from this experience, don't wait until it happens to you.

45. abc won't air the photo after it airs the photo this one time. they couldn't hold off on to this. they know that everyone wants to see the picture. we all need to see the picture to grasp what happened. some people need to see the picture to relate to their own situation and see that they are not alone. rhianna should be ok that the photo has surfaced. she will get an idea of what people feel. that is important because she is a public figure who needs people to feel a certain way about her. transparency is a good thing.
