It's just sad that this Abramson kerfuffle has overridden the far more important Solange-Jayz conflict. This conflict is far more illustrative of the state of male female relations in this country. One notes how many commentators, especially women, take the reflexive position that the only possible explanation for the brawl is that Jayz must have done something truly awful to have set it off. Thus, even while he's being pummeled, we learn that it's all his fault. This is consistent with the overriding message of feminism--it's all your fault......I think a more innocent explanation is possible. When two methane leaking assholes are confined within the space of a small elevator, bad things can happen. It wasn't arson. It was spontaneous combustion........A similar phenomenon probably occurred in Sulzberger/Abramson fracas. To those who would claim that the NYT is not such a confined space, I would answer that given the circumference of the assholes involved, it is a relatively smaller space than that of an elevator. Also please understand that the two people involved had never in their lives been told that their methane leakage was malodorous. Instead they had been assured that their farts were fragrant to the nostrils of God. As a result, they never stifled the impulse to pass gas and, indeed, even a high cabbage diet to foster the scent of sanctimony.

Don't care that much for any of these people, but I am curious as to what set Solange off to that extent. It had to be a doozy.
Is that Maya Rudolph in "white face" portraying Beyoncé?
"Beyoncé is off making another sexually aggressive video about monogamous relationships". That was funny. It's been awhile since I laughed out loud at an snl skit.
I understand this clown show has been to the white house. I'll bet that it is difficult to distinguish the performers from the audience.

Just watched this. Hilarious! Almost makes me want to watch SNL.
And this skit isn't racist because . . . ?
