New PETA Ad Not Controversial At All
2008-07-18 19:51:00
-By Warner Todd Huston Apparently the newest big-deal-ad that everyone is supposed to get all upset over is an advertisement by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) that came out this week. Unfortunately for them, I can’t see how anyone would get too exercised over it. In fact, to my mind the message and ...

I didn’t realize Esther Ku was controversial
2008-06-20 07:35:00
Esther Ku I got caught up in the moment when watching Last Comic Standing and didn’t realize that comedian Esther Ku was so controversial. I was persuaded to root for cutie Esther Ku after seeing her move up in the competition to Las Vegas. There was a scene of Esther Ku bouncing up and down on her hotel room bed that showed her to be energetic and fun. Plus, she’s from Chicago — I’m a sucker when it comes to anyone local who has a shot at making it big.  (Northwest Indiana is just an extension of Chicago when it comes down to it). After writing a pro- Esther Ku post, I discover there’s a bunch of anti- Esther Ku blog posts: Blogger Angry Asian Man writes that Esther Ku’s comedy is stereotypical and self-hating. Not only is her act painfully unfunny, it’s completely reliant on the same old tired Asian stereotypes. And I’m not talking about taking on the stereotypes with a creative, subversive spin—it’s just the same old tired...

Design Miami/ Basel 2008 - Controversial
2008-06-05 11:38:00
"Design-art" is a commercial phenomenon, not a cultural onewrites Alice Rawsthorn in an article published last month in IHT. I will add - a sociological one, too. It is true that commercial interests are behind the strong drive, but they are also a result of the social developments. Design and designers are trying to find their role in a new type of society, and the society is trying to estimate thir influence, too. I think that the term "design-art" and the phenomenon of design auctions has a positive meaning, too - this is a way for the wide audience to value more design and the work of designers and to admit their important role. I agree that "often uncomfortable chairs don't deserve to be aggrandized by the intellectualtrappings of art"and that "there are deeper, more complex areas of design than "design-art"; and thatallof the hullabaloo about it distorts public perceptions of design, anddistractsattention from its overriding mission of building a better world,notditzier chair...

'If you're not taking chances, putting your career on the line, it ain't fun no more,' MC says of edgy clip.By Shaheem Reid Nas' untitled album Photo: Def Jam NEW YORK — Nas was a walking pull quote Thursday night as he stood in front of journalists and bloggers at the Tribeca Grand Hotel. "I ain't Farrakhan or Chuck D," he said about the message on his new album. "I'm just a Queensbridge n---a that got rich. ... I love pissing people off and stirring up stupid mutha----as." Nas invited the media and others to see the world premiere of his video for "Be a Nigger Too." The clip was directed by Rik Cordero, who's earned a name for himself helming clips for Ghostface Killah, Beanie Sigel, Styles P and other MCs on shoestring budgets. "Nas offends no one by offending everyone," Cordero said, addressing the crowd in the small auditorium. He revealed that much of the imagery in the video — such as Nas talking to himself and rapping in front of a mirror ̵...

Humor: Nas changes controversial album title to "Negro"
2008-05-23 17:56:00
Nas is to thought what 50 is to feuds. Rapper Nas has done what most people are afraid to do and that's to push societies envelope. The power of the spokenword is in its reaction that it recieves. Nas is a master of this art and his music has always had a message. Though that mole on his face bothers the heck out of me. I'm paranoid that the damn thing will jump out and attack me everytime i see a video of his. Nas is not a true n**ger, he is more of a negro with a gift. He is a shade below black and did'nt attend school long enough to be considered an African American. Will Smith makes him seem like Malcolm X. I'm against that N-word but i think if DMX ever comes out with a new album he should call it "One Crazy N**ger". Nas is basically starting a dialogue that people like the Rev. Al Sharpton don't want to talk about. Facing up to an issue is the only way to beat it. LOng live N**ger Nas. 40Master E.G Radio, ExtravaGangsta Radio,

April 23, ReutersMEXICO CITY - Mexico's top electoral body ordered broadcasters to stop running a controversial TV ad on Monday that compares a firebrand leftist leading a siege of Congress to dictators Hitler and Pinochet.The TV ad, funded by a Mexican businessman angry at a blockade of Congress by opposition lawmakers trying to derail an oil reform plan, says the antics of protest leader Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador are endangering democracy."The complaints committee decided unanimously to order the withdrawal of the spot from today," a spokesman for the Federal Electoral Institute told Reuters.Leftists seized Congress podiums on April 10 to block a government proposal to lower barriers to private investment in the oil sector, controlled by the state since 1938.
