Somehow that line was the most galling to me. I know it shouldn't be, but that was her hard-hitting analysis - that the google machines say it's disparaging and offensive slang so it must be true.
Don't bother getting a quote from an activist or something - they're not hard to find. Don't go get historical context for the word when you're disparaging a team name. Nah - !@#$ing type it into the web browser and vomit up the results.
If she can't do it from her ****ing couch, she's just not gonna do it.
Lazy, thy name is Brooke Pryor. She's god-awful.
