n the back page of Thursday's Sports section, a photo of Serena Williams with members of the group Destiny's Child was misidentified as Beyonce Knowles. |

I think that is what happened. I don't think that it was so much that Serena Williams looks like Beyonce it was that whoever this reporter was saw the members of Destiny's Child and thought that she was Beyonce without looking at the photo good. However, Serena Williams and Beyonce are almost built the same. |

I think this was just an honest mistake. Newpapers and magazines, especially those that operate on razor-thin deadline schedules, make these kinds of errors ALL THE TIME. Almost American adult - White, Black or Blue - who's been ALIVE over the last 10 years KNOW the difference between Serena Williams and Beyonce Knowles. |

It was racism most foul-- I don't know that Serena ought to get mad about it, though. |

"I don't know that Serena ought to get mad about it, though." Why not Chris? |

"Why not Chris?" Why should she? How was she harmed? Did she lose income as a result? Was she publicly scandalized? Was she psychologically or physically harmed? Was her professional career compromised? Did someone die as result of the error? I'm sure this woman has far better things to do than agonize over a silly misprint. Besides, why should she worry when there is a motley cult of minions who will become distressed and disturbed over such petty matters for her? |

The person that wrote the copy probably never even saw the picture. Isn't that typically how it goes? |

Why should she...? How was she harmed...? Did she lose...? Was she publicly...? Was her professional career...? Did someone die...? why should she worry...over such petty matters? Here's another one... YOUR NAME CHRIS, BIOTCH?????? |

"Ntfs, you've been harping on Tonya's every word for quite some time...chill out." Nawwwww....not really. I like Tonya. We have differences of opinion and that is what makes our posts spicy. It's just harmless bantering. And if you have noticed, I have never attacked nor used the language that some posters have. No need for that. I'm a very civil guy. Beisdes, she has pinged on me a few times. Like that T-shirt said that I saw today: "IT'S ALL GOOD!" |
