re: #110 klys

I dislike trying to attach that word in this context because it continues with the negative connotations of it - and particularly, with once again attaching those connotations to a female.

Corporate shill is much more precise.

A friend stopped by and so now I am behind in the thread. I wanted to explain myself a bit.

I was keeping it in the context of Rushbo using it on Ms. Fluke and in the context of this thread and Blueraven’s post #22. Remember Rush used slut as another word for a prostitute. It could be said that a corporate shill can also be considered to be a prostitute too.

Second definition of prostitute: The act or an instance of offering or devoting one’s talent to an unworthy use or cause. (The freedictionary.com)

I understand your point, but I don’t think you understood mine. It is easy to get caught in the emotion of the word. I was discussing it in the context and use of wingnuts and of Roger Ailes being just like a pimp, using a woman like Megyn Kelly for an unworthy use/cause. Call it corporate shilling. but to me Sandra Fluke did less to deserve someone using the word on her as compared to Fox using women as “corporate shills!”

Damn, it is hard to put it into words. All I can ask is if you think I was calling Megyn Kelly a slut, I did not mean it that way. By the way, there does not seem to be any other definition for the word other than a negative description attached to women. That is exactly why Rush used it and why Blueraven used it in this discussion.
