Almost since it began airing "Glee" has provoked debate because of its satire, characters, music choices, even guest appearances.
Today's controversy involves former Saturday Night Live performer Victoria Jackson, a Christian, who wrote a column criticizing the kiss between two male teens, calling it 'sickening' and saying the producers of the show have an agenda of 'one-way tolerance.'
Whether you agree with Jackson's stance on the kiss is one thing, but let's ponder this: Does Jackson have a point about the show having an agenda? Is there anything wrong with that? And can Jackson, who still has that wacky, airy bearing she had when she was on SNL, get a fair hearing of her views? Should she?
Check out her appearance on Showbiz Tonight and see what you think?
Assistant Features Editor Adrienne Johnson Martin would like to have her life turned into an animated cartoon.

Liberal Media Bias Showing

Are HIllary and Michelle just like Meg and Sarah?
Tue, 03/22/2011 - 15:04 — JustShutUpWhat if I said Hillary Clinton is a whore. Or Michelle Obama is a twat.
Afterall, Jerry Brown's campaign aide said Meg Whtiman is a whore.
Bill Maher just called Sarah Palin a twat.
What's the media to do? What's NOW to do?
What a pathetic waste of
Tue, 03/22/2011 - 13:34 — JoeBloggsWhat a pathetic waste of human flesh. She writes such drivel, and when asked to respond her reply is "It doesn't matter what I think?"!
She's right, what she has to say doesn't make one iota of a difference. If you want to believe a folk tale translated numerous times for the benefit of human ego, then that is your own stupidity. Keep your mouth shut.

Some people just need to find work or take up a engaging hobby!
