I have not really been following this story....but wasn't her comment about ""space""???

IMO only.....it was not an insult to the girls.....time to move on.

I just bought her black & white star print jacket.

I don't have a problem with Joan for what she says when she's trying to be funny.

I saw the ""real"" Joan on Celebrity Apprentice. That's what soured me on her.

While Joan's original remark was tasteless, I found her response to the victims' complaints offensive:

"Just days after comparing her living arrangements on her reality show to what the women faced, Rivers kept it up. She told TMZ, the celebrity gossip program, that Gina DeJesus and Amanda Berry should not complain: "They got to live rent free for more than a decade . . . One of them has a book deal. Neither are in a psych ward. They're OK. I bet you within three years one of them will be on Dancing with the Stars."

And she went on. In an apparent reference to a lack of sense of humor, she said, "The TV the guy gave them must not have had SNL.''

It's always a victory for me when I remember why I entered a room.

There is nothing ""real"" about CA either....

Never bought her stuff before, won't be buying it now. Never cared for her or her "humor".

She could be right about DWTS.

Have any of the women said anything about her comments? Or is it only people who don't know them who are offended?

Yep. I told DH a few weeks ago that it's only a matter of time before Rob Ford hosts SNL.

What worries you masters you.
