No Seinfeld For You!

Here’s your latest fix of Michael Richards news.

Jesse Jackson has called for a boycott of Seinfeld Season 7. Sorry Jesse, my Christmas will be spent watching George squirm out of his relationship with Susan, Jerry mug an old woman for a marble rye and The Soup Nazi denying George soup.(Incidentally I titled this post before I noticed the headline in that article.)

Michael Richards and Jesse Jackson both feel ‘the N word’ should be banned and Richards’ publicist confirms that he has sought psychiatric help.

Robin Williams is the latest comedian to defend Kramer the daft racist.

The Laugh Factory are insisting that Richards pays up $6 million to charity. That seems like a cheap PR exercise by the club to me. You wouldn't pay that much money if you were convicted in a civil trial for murdering a black man, far less insulting one.

Actress and comedian Monique is on a complete Michael Richards boycott.

Have you read this Monique tripe? Every nobody with a pulse is trying to make good off the back of this. This whole episode is piling shame onto shame.

"For more of Mo'Nique's reaction to Michael Richards, watch tonight's "Insider"!"

Shameful, just fucking shameful, and place JJ and Richards high up the idiot board as well for wanting to ban a fucking word. What the fuck next? There should be a prize for dumbest remark regarding this whole affair.

How can you ban a word? As soon as a word is invented, then it's too late. It exists already. How would you enforce the banning of a word?
