This is an example of the hypocrisy of Pee See culture. The ridicule of the catholic church by portraying nuns in disrepectful ways is almost a cliche of the lib media. But let someone DARE touch on anything that has the slightest whiff of disrepect toward racial minorities?

CALL OUT THE PEE SEE MARINES!!!!!!!

#1, this is one ad in one regional magazine. There will always be stuff like this, even if we don't have a "pee see" culture. It's what happens when you have a First Amendment.

But #2, what's hypocritical about saying it's okay to make jokes about some things, but not about others?

Nuns have been joked about for centuries because they have often been authority figures, and they represent a big kahuna authority figure -- the Catholic church.

There's a difference between poking fun at authority figures and perpetuating stereotypes of traditionally marginalized groups.

All that said, you're also wrong:

Just one example of a "disrespectful" portrayal of blacks in mainstream advertising -- about which I'm sure you heard no outcry.

Not necessarily in that order.

There are zillions of such references all the time. And stuff like this DOESN'T always happen for the Pee See Protected, and my point wasn't a legal one - not talking about the first amendment.

In 2008, nuns are "authority figures"? Then it's OK to ridicule religion, but not race - gotcha. Hmmm... but even horrendous wars have been and still are being fought over religion - holocausts have occurred over religion - people have been burned at the stake over religion - people are being mass murdred in Darfur over religion - garsh, I guess that's not a good idea after all.

HOW is that disrespectful? Because the woman portrayed is overweight? She's shown in a protective attitude toward her children?

And white guys are portrayed negatively a thousand times a day in the liberal media.

The picture of the article is not the best example, but the article is referring to this common black stereotype:

White guys are also portrayed positively a thousand times a day in the liberal media.
