Eddie Murphy, Brett Ratner In The Center of Hollywood P C Flap

IT'S ALWAYS FUN WHEN THE RICH, POWERFUL AND FAMOUS lapse into gross political incorrectness and cause an earthquake of instant outrage.  Those who don't have a life go bonkers. You'd think they'd been shot in the head with a .45 Magnum at the Oscars. An off-the-cuff remark in Hollywood involving the word 'fag' caused a tsunami of nuclear proportions, and the dominoes have fallen like flies. Say what funny fellas?  Don't you know,  no one  knows how to take a joke there anymore!

Big Hollywood explains:

Eddie Murphy is a complicated man and it’s impossible to know his precise motivations for jettisoning his Oscar hosting gig just a day after the Hollywood P.C. Thought Police took out his friend and creative partner Brett Ratner, but it certainly looks like a rebuke of the repressive “tolerance” mandate that has eroded Hollywood and the art it attempts to create.

This isn't really much of a story, but frankly after the last two weeks of focusing on Herman Cain's peccadilloes, it's fresher and a lot more fun to write about. Thanks for keeping it slightly interesting in Hollywood fellas.
