A mother thinks it's a good idea to name her new baby girl Walburga (no relation to Mark or Donny, as far as I know). Things don't get easier for dear Walburga either; she emigrates to America, but ends up on a poor farm in the Midwest. One silver lining: she starts going by \"Dolly,\" so that's something, I guess.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Walburga eventually turns things around for herself in her early 20s by marrying Fred Oesterreich, a rich owner of...an apron factory (aprons were that lucrative back then? I guess more people cooked at home back in the day, but still: really??). Unfortunately, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEDvlSAMhQU\">money can't buy you class\u003c/a> or happiness because Moneybags was a drunk.

In 1913, she complains to her husband about a broken sewing machine. He promises to send one of his apron factory workers over to fix it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That worker turns out to be a 17-year-old by the name of Otto, who has no idea what he's about to get into. Dolly allegedly answers the door in \"a silk robe, stockings, heavy perfume and nothing else\" (not unlike \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2016/05/19/bette-davis-vs-joan-crawford-the-shadiest-hollywood-feud-of-all-time/\">what Joan Crawford did\u003c/a> in her solarium to seduce Franchot Tone).

They meet in hotels at first, but that can get expensive and is inconvenient in general, so they think \u003cem>Aw, screw it!\u003c/em> and start rendezvous-ing in her marital bed. That's when the neighbors start talking, as they are wont to do. Dolly tries to get them off the scent by claiming Otto is her \"vagabond half-brother\" (ew). This convinces no one, so Dolly approaches Otto with a proposition. It probably goes a little something like this:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Hey, boo! Want to live in my attic? My ball and chain never goes up there. We can have sex whenevs and my neighbors can go back to talking about some other lady on the street. Oh, by the way, you won't ever be able to leave the house and I'll be the only one you ever see or talk to for the foreseeable future. Cool?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For whatever reason, Otto says \u003cem>Cool. \u003c/em>He moves in, essentially becoming her sex slave. In his non-boning time, Otto works on his writing and makes bathtub gin. This goes on for FIVE YEARS, until Dolly's husband starts getting paranoid, not about her cheating, but about ghosts and/or his sanity. How else could you explain the weird noises at night, the shadows under his door, the missing cigars?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monsieur Walburga is creeped out enough to want to relocate to Los Angeles. Dolly is open to this with one caveat: the new house must have an attic. Moneybags is like \u003cem>Uh, you're weird, but OK. A\u003c/em>lways one step ahead, Dolly sends Otto to LA in advance.

That's when the neighbors start talking, as they are wont to do. Dolly tries to get them off the scent by claiming Otto is her \"vagabond half-brother\" (ew). This convinces no one, so Dolly approaches Otto with a proposition. It probably goes a little something like this:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Hey, boo! Want to live in my attic? My ball and chain never goes up there. We can have sex whenevs and my neighbors can go back to talking about some other lady on the street.

Cool?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For whatever reason, Otto says \u003cem>Cool. \u003c/em>He moves in, essentially becoming her sex slave. In his non-boning time, Otto works on his writing and makes bathtub gin. This goes on for FIVE YEARS, until Dolly's husband starts getting paranoid, not about her cheating, but about ghosts and/or his sanity. How else could you explain the weird noises at night, the shadows under his door, the missing cigars?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monsieur Walburga is creeped out enough to want to relocate to Los Angeles. Dolly is open to this with one caveat: the new house must have an attic. Moneybags is like \u003cem>Uh, you're weird, but OK. A\u003c/em>lways one step ahead, Dolly sends Otto to LA in advance. By the time she and her husband move into their new home, he's already kicking it in the attic!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the move, Dolly's husband starts drinking even more.

"content": "\u003cp>First, a confession: I love Ludacris. I love Ludacris to a degree I cannot really defend, other than to say I am the right age for loving Ludacris, which is to say I was 16 years old when the song \"Area Codes\" dropped, which is to say I will likely always find both it and him brilliant and hilarious. (Also,\u003ca href=\"http://www.fastcocreate.com/1682726/inf-ho-graphic-a-precisely-plotted-map-of-area-codes-in-which-ludacris-has-hoes\" target=\"_blank\"> this map\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I even went out of my way to see Ludacris perform at SXSW's Interactive closing party in 2015, an event at which I was more visibly excited and engaged than maybe 98 percent of attendees, which is not actually saying that much if you have ever been to a private but admission-free rager overwhelmingly populated by tech dudes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of which leaves me curious as to the vibe, so to speak, at a \u003ca href=\"http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/national/article86208127.html\" target=\"_blank\">rather different upcoming Ludacris performance.\u003c/a> The \u003cem>Miami Herald\u003c/em> reported today that the overgrown class clown of a rapper has been chosen to headline the annual Fourth of July \"Freedom Festival\" at Guantanamo Bay, a free event thrown for the less than 6,000 residents of the Navy base there. The \u003cem>Herald\u003c/em> notes that this population is made up of \"troops, Department of Defense contractors, Navy families and the last [79] war-on-terror detainees.\" (The original \u003cem>Herald \u003c/em>story misidentified that number as 89.\u003cem>)\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Obama, you may recall, has been pledging to close the now 14-year-old military prison since before he was elected president, noting its well-documented history of detaining suspected terrorists indefinitely, without trial. As recently as February of this year, \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/24/us/politics/obama-guantanamo-bay.html?_r=0\" target=\"_blank\">he presented Congress with a plan\u003c/a> for transferring the remaining prisoners away from the facility, noting that the prison \"is viewed as a stain on our broader record of upholding the highest standards of rule of law. This is about closing a chapter in our history.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That plan was met with near-instantaneous rejection by Republican members of Congress. In the waning months of the Obama administration, it seems likely that the complex issues surrounding the detention center and its closure will be passed on to the next inhabitant of the Oval Office, not unlike some sort of pesky, Rumsfeld-era STD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the time being, then, there remain more than 5,000 people residing at Guantanamo Bay -- and I'm certainly not here to say they don't deserve entertainment. On the contrary, if your work involves daily interaction with an institution the president actively refers to as a \"stain,\" you should get all the free concerts you can take. Calling the annual taxpayer-funded Fourth of July event at a military prison Amnesty International once referred to as the \u003ca href=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20060220210041/http://web.amnesty.org/library/Index/ENGPOL100142005\" target=\"_blank\">Gulag of our times\u003c/a> a \"Freedom Festival,\" on the other hand, involves a degree of questionable judgment I can't really wrap my head around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In any event, Ludacris is apparently the biggest name to visit said festival in over a decade: \"Base residents couldn’t recall a show of this magnitude since Jimmy Buffett played the open-air Lyceum movie theater in December 2002,\" reports the \u003cem>Herald\u003c/em>. Recent years have instead seen performances by smaller, pop-punkier fish like the Plain White Ts [insert your own offensive joke about cruel and unusual punishment here].\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To summarize: If you are a person who loves fireworks and comical hip-hop songs about women's body parts and your area code is 21 (shout out Guantanamo Bay, Cuba), this year's Fourth of July just might be the free-est you've ever felt!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unless, of course, you're a detainee: Organizers have assured the press that Windward Ferry Landing, the glorified parking lot from whence said freedom will be ringing, is too far away from the detention center for the prisoners to hear it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n",

I love Ludacris to a degree I cannot really defend, other than to say I am the right age for loving Ludacris, which is to say I was 16 years old when the song \"Area Codes\" dropped, which is to say I will likely always find both it and him brilliant and hilarious. (Also,\u003ca href=\"http://www.fastcocreate.com/1682726/inf-ho-graphic-a-precisely-plotted-map-of-area-codes-in-which-ludacris-has-hoes\" target=\"_blank\"> this map\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I even went out of my way to see Ludacris perform at SXSW's Interactive closing party in 2015, an event at which I was more visibly excited and engaged than maybe 98 percent of attendees, which is not actually saying that much if you have ever been to a private but admission-free rager overwhelmingly populated by tech dudes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of which leaves me curious as to the vibe, so to speak, at a \u003ca href=\"http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/national/article86208127.html\" target=\"_blank\">rather different upcoming Ludacris performance.\u003c/a> The \u003cem>Miami Herald\u003c/em> reported today that the overgrown class clown of a rapper has been chosen to headline the annual Fourth of July \"Freedom Festival\" at Guantanamo Bay, a free event thrown for the less than 6,000 residents of the Navy base there. The \u003cem>Herald\u003c/em> notes that this population is made up of \"troops, Department of Defense contractors, Navy families and the last [79] war-on-terror detainees.\" (The original \u003cem>Herald \u003c/em>story misidentified that number as 89.\u003cem>)\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Obama, you may recall, has been pledging to close the now 14-year-old military prison since before he was elected president, noting its well-documented history of detaining suspected terrorists indefinitely, without trial. As recently as February of this year, \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/24/us/politics/obama-guantanamo-bay.html?_r=0\" target=\"_blank\">he presented Congress with a plan\u003c/a> for transferring the remaining prisoners away from the facility, noting that the prison \"is viewed as a stain on our broader record of upholding the highest standards of rule of law. This is about closing a chapter in our history.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That plan was met with near-instantaneous rejection by Republican members of Congress. In the waning months of the Obama administration, it seems likely that the complex issues surrounding the detention center and its closure will be passed on to the next inhabitant of the Oval Office, not unlike some sort of pesky, Rumsfeld-era STD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On the contrary, if your work involves daily interaction with an institution the president actively refers to as a \"stain,\" you should get all the free concerts you can take. Calling the annual taxpayer-funded Fourth of July event at a military prison Amnesty International once referred to as the \u003ca href=\"https://web.archive.org/web/20060220210041/http://web.amnesty.org/library/Index/ENGPOL100142005\" target=\"_blank\">Gulag of our times\u003c/a> a \"Freedom Festival,\" on the other hand, involves a degree of questionable judgment I can't really wrap my head around.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In any event, Ludacris is apparently the biggest name to visit said festival in over a decade: \"Base residents couldn’t recall a show of this magnitude since Jimmy Buffett played the open-air Lyceum movie theater in December 2002,\" reports the \u003cem>Herald\u003c/em>. Recent years have instead seen performances by smaller, pop-punkier fish like the Plain White Ts [insert your own offensive joke about cruel and unusual punishment here].\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To summarize: If you are a person who loves fireworks and comical hip-hop songs about women's body parts and your area code is 21 (shout out Guantanamo Bay, Cuba), this year's Fourth of July just might be the free-est you've ever felt!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unless, of course, you're a detainee: Organizers have assured the press that Windward Ferry Landing, the glorified parking lot from whence said freedom will be ringing, is too far away from the detention center for the prisoners to hear it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Jacked on protein powder and the literal piles of meat made available during cocktail parties, Chad was incapable of controlling his temper in front of the cameras. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">On their very first \"date,\" he called JoJo Fletcher, the woman he was supposed to be impressing, \"naggy.\" Then, when Evan Bass, a wispy erectile dysfunction specialist, decided to roast Chad during a competition, Chad responded by grabbing Evan’s shirt and pulling it so hard that it ripped. \u003c/span>After that, he punched a door. But Evan wasn't the only one he had beef with: \"I'm going to cut everyone here's legs off and arms off and there's going to be torsos and I'm going to throw them in the pool and I'm going to f*ck up this entire damn thing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Eventually, ABC brought security into the house, a guy with a mere fraction of Johnson’s muscle mass. Whenever JoJo or anyone else confronted Chad for his troubling behavior, Johnson would use some bizarre circular logic to reason that he only made violent threats because the guys just wouldn’t stop picking on him and, well, what else is he supposed to do besides threaten them with physical violence?\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And after all that, JoJo \u003cem>still\u003c/em> kept him around for another episode. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“He was probably a dream character for the producers,” says Dr. Melissa Camacho, an associate professor of mass media at San Francisco State University.

They’re the characters that the audience loves to hate, even if they’re physically and verbally abusive. This apparent inability to see the abuse as anything more than entertainment deeply concerns Camacho. “Are we suggesting that these types of violent episodes on a reality show are things that we’re not supposed to take seriously as audiences because it’s just a reality show? At what point do we say that this is violence?”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">It was certainly violence when \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5cVlW5Q6J8\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Stephen Williams slapped Irene McGee on \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Real World: Seattle\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in 1998.

On the \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jersey Shore\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8eYbyriti8\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sammi and J-Woww traded blows\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in season two but both stayed cast members for four more seasons. And on \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Teen Mom\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Amber Portwood faced domestic violence charges for \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZqSgkQLiGo\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">attacking her fiance\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (in front of their child) only after the footage aired. She eventually went to prison (for unrelated charges). As of 2016, she’s still on the show. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For Camacho, one of her most memorable reality show moments came from the second season of \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Top Chef\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. After a night of drinking, four of the contestants, including Cliff Crooks, decided to shave their heads and the head of Marcel Vigneron, who was asleep at the time. Cliff \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1pse2_top-chef-head-shaving-official_shortfilms\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">is shown on camera trying to hold Marcel down\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. “Everyone knew that it wasn’t meant to be a quote unquote violent event,” Camacho says. “But they were like: You put your hands on somebody. That’s assault.” Crooks was disqualified from the show, on camera.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Unfortunately, not all programs are so discerning, and some — like \u003cem>The Bachelorette\u003c/em> — may actually capitalize on such behavior. One of the scariest hostilities in reality history happened on the usually innocuous \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Amazing Race\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The CBS adventure series was thrown for a loop when they cast Jonathan Baker and Victoria Fuller in its sixth season. The couple bickered from the start, but it wasn’t until a few episodes in that the full extent of Jonathan’s temper was revealed. After losing a footrace, he shoved Victoria, blaming her for their second-place finish. In another episode, Jonathan raised his hand as though to hit his wife, but stopped himself just in time. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jonathan and Victoria remained on \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Amazing Race\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> until they lost. Afterward, Jonathan\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://www.ew.com/article/2004/12/22/amazing-race-contestant-im-not-abusive-husband\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> went on the defensive:\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> “We went in being the villains. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We went in playing it over the top, and CBS kind of helped it along with their storyline.” Other networks decided to capitalize on them too; a few years later, the couple were invited onto the reality star edition of \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fear Factor\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, and they lived up to their hype. Ever the sore losers, Victoria pushed Jonny Fairplay of \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Survivor\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> infamy. Never one to be upstaged, Jonathan then attacked host Joe Rogan after they traded insults. Jonathan \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://nypost.com/2006/05/31/fear-fight-controversial-racer-clashes-with-reality-show-host-joe-rogan/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">claims\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that Rogan and Fairplay had taunted his wife, and he was merely defending her. (Jonathan and Victoria are now divorced.)\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fans of\u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The Bachelorette\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> may have wondered if producers were perhaps forcing JoJo to string Chad along for the juicy plot line. Fortunately, the speculation was short-lived, as JoJo finally dumped him after a two-on-one date in episode four. Of course, the network still let his exit bleed into episode five, filming his return to the house for one last manufactured confrontation, probably because they thought maybe this time he’d blow, and partly so they could milk one more episode’s worth of ratings out of him. He didn’t snap, even when Evan asked him to replace his torn shirt, and Chad finally left. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Later that night, Johnson was a guest on ABC’s \u003cem>Jimmy Kimmel Live\u003c/em>. And later this summer, viewers will get even more Chad on the alcohol-soaked spinoff \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bachelor in Paradise\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, where he’ll rejoin Evan Bass and more of the men who felt unsafe around Johnson and whose limbs he threatened to tear off. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Maybe nothing will happen. Or maybe Chad will actually act on some of his threats. Either way, millions of people will be watching. Sometimes, it's easier to stomach a guy like Chad than the grim reality we see on the news.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think people are so saturated with information about violence in all its forms,” Camacho says, “that, when it comes to entertainment media, people just don’t want to have that kind of conversation.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

On the \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jersey Shore\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8eYbyriti8\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sammi and J-Woww traded blows\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in season two but both stayed cast members for four more seasons. And on \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Teen Mom\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Amber Portwood faced domestic violence charges for \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZqSgkQLiGo\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">attacking her fiance\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (in front of their child) only after the footage aired. She eventually went to prison (for unrelated charges). As of 2016, she’s still on the show. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For Camacho, one of her most memorable reality show moments came from the second season of \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Top Chef\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. After a night of drinking, four of the contestants, including Cliff Crooks, decided to shave their heads and the head of Marcel Vigneron, who was asleep at the time. Cliff \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1pse2_top-chef-head-shaving-official_shortfilms\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">is shown on camera trying to hold Marcel down\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. “Everyone knew that it wasn’t meant to be a quote unquote violent event,” Camacho says. “But they were like: You put your hands on somebody. That’s assault.” Crooks was disqualified from the show, on camera.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Unfortunately, not all programs are so discerning, and some — like \u003cem>The Bachelorette\u003c/em> — may actually capitalize on such behavior. One of the scariest hostilities in reality history happened on the usually innocuous \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Amazing Race\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The CBS adventure series was thrown for a loop when they cast Jonathan Baker and Victoria Fuller in its sixth season. The couple bickered from the start, but it wasn’t until a few episodes in that the full extent of Jonathan’s temper was revealed. After losing a footrace, he shoved Victoria, blaming her for their second-place finish. In another episode, Jonathan raised his hand as though to hit his wife, but stopped himself just in time. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jonathan and Victoria remained on \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Amazing Race\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> until they lost. Afterward, Jonathan\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://www.ew.com/article/2004/12/22/amazing-race-contestant-im-not-abusive-husband\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> went on the defensive:\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> “We went in being the villains. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We went in playing it over the top, and CBS kind of helped it along with their storyline.” Other networks decided to capitalize on them too; a few years later, the couple were invited onto the reality star edition of \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fear Factor\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, and they lived up to their hype. Ever the sore losers, Victoria pushed Jonny Fairplay of \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Survivor\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> infamy. Never one to be upstaged, Jonathan then attacked host Joe Rogan after they traded insults. Jonathan \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://nypost.com/2006/05/31/fear-fight-controversial-racer-clashes-with-reality-show-host-joe-rogan/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">claims\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that Rogan and Fairplay had taunted his wife, and he was merely defending her. (Jonathan and Victoria are now divorced.)\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fans of\u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> The Bachelorette\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> may have wondered if producers were perhaps forcing JoJo to string Chad along for the juicy plot line. Fortunately, the speculation was short-lived, as JoJo finally dumped him after a two-on-one date in episode four. Of course, the network still let his exit bleed into episode five, filming his return to the house for one last manufactured confrontation, probably because they thought maybe this time he’d blow, and partly so they could milk one more episode’s worth of ratings out of him. He didn’t snap, even when Evan asked him to replace his torn shirt, and Chad finally left. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Later that night, Johnson was a guest on ABC’s \u003cem>Jimmy Kimmel Live\u003c/em>. And later this summer, viewers will get even more Chad on the alcohol-soaked spinoff \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bachelor in Paradise\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, where he’ll rejoin Evan Bass and more of the men who felt unsafe around Johnson and whose limbs he threatened to tear off. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Maybe nothing will happen. Or maybe Chad will actually act on some of his threats. Either way, millions of people will be watching. Sometimes, it's easier to stomach a guy like Chad than the grim reality we see on the news.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">This morning, those of us who believe in a woman's right to choose have something to celebrate: the Supreme Court has \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/27/483686616/supreme-court-strikes-down-abortion-restrictions-in-texas\">struck down abortion restrictions in Texas\u003c/a>. But victory has become an unfamiliar sensation, as of late. At the end of March, Indiana Governor Mike Pence signed one of \u003ca href=\"https://iga.in.gov/legislative/2016/bills/house/1337#digest-heading\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">the most restrictive abortion laws in the country\u003c/span>\u003c/a>, a bill so extreme even some \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/03/25/471842196/indiana-governor-signs-new-abortion-restrictions-into-law\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">pro-life lawmakers opposed it\u003c/span>\u003c/a>. Around the same time, Donald Trump suggested (and then recanted) that women \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/31/us/politics/donald-trump-abortion.html?_r=0\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">who receive abortions should be subject “to some kind of punishment\u003c/span>\u003c/a>.” The last few years have seen the curtailing of abortion rights across the US, from Tennessee to Texas, North Dakota, and most recently \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/04/23/this-is-our-proper-function-oklahoma-advances-measure-to-revoke-licenses-of-doctors-that-perform-abortions/\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">Oklahoma\u003c/span>\u003c/a>. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">I’ve watched these explosive conversations and laws unfold across the country with horror, as women’s bodies are used and abused by the political process. Missing from many of these political conversations are women’s voices and missing from the media landscape, from television to film, are representations of women who choose to have abortions, whatever their reasons may be. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">When TV shows attempt to stay neutral on the issue of abortion, in order to avoid offending an imagined conservative audience, they in fact take an anti-choice stance. Plot lines in which abortion is not considered as a reasonable option reinforce the spectacle and stigma around the procedure. That's why it's so important when shows like \u003ci>Scandal\u003c/i> offer diverse representations of reproductive choices, helping to normalize the scope of possibilities available to women.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Abortion’s absence in entertainment television is nothing new. \u003cem>Broadly\u003c/em>'s Briana Fasone \u003ca href=\"https://broadly.vice.com/en_us/article/far-from-reality-tv-the-changing-story-of-abortion-on-television\">writes\u003c/a> that, \u003cspan class=\"s2\">“until the 1960s, abortion, which was illegal in 44 states in nearly all situations that didn’t threaten the life of the mother, was absent as a plot line in television\u003c/span>\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"s3\">.” \u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Fasone \u003cspan class=\"s2\">details this early history of abortion on \u003c/span>TV, which included news reports, a controversial episode of \u003ci>The Defenders\u003c/i>, and a Walter Cronkite special. Moreover, pregnancy itself has often been invisible on network television. For decades, women’s pregnant bodies have been largely hidden behind drapey clothes (see: \u003ca href=\"http://www.avclub.com/article/more-than-60-years-ago-a-pregnant-lucille-ball-cou-100629\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">Lucille Ball\u003c/span>\u003c/a>), tight camera framing, and even the occasional giant popcorn bowl. (I’m looking at you, \u003ci>Scandal\u003c/i>.) \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Even more obscure are storylines that engage and carry through with abortion in primetime network programming -- the most expensive and conservative landscape in television -- especially when the procedure involves a main character. Here, \u003ci>Scandal\u003c/i> made history in its mid-season winter finale, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” showcasing its central character choosing, without fanfare, to have an abortion. Olivia (Kerry Washington) wasn’t the first character to make this choice on television, but she is one of a very select few. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">In the early 1960s, an abortion plot on \u003ci>The Defenders\u003c/i>, which supported the rights of women to choose, caused an uproar at CBS. The show lost sponsors. Affiliates in many major markets refused to air the episode. Then, in 1972, there was the Bea Arthur sitcom \u003ci>Maude\u003c/i>.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/06/16991917_849842870001_img-100603-maude-rue-still-182846995684.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"alignright wp-image-28023\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/06/16991917_849842870001_img-100603-maude-rue-still-182846995684.jpg\" alt=\"maude abortion\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/06/16991917_849842870001_img-100603-maude-rue-still-182846995684.jpg 480w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/06/16991917_849842870001_img-100603-maude-rue-still-182846995684-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\">\u003c/a>In 1972 -- in line with the shifting tide signaled by the Roe v. Wade decision (1973) -- Bea Arthur’s character Maude\u003ci> \u003c/i>had an abortion. Although she was \u003ca href=\"http://talkingpointsmemo.com/cafe/cristina-yang-grey-s-anatomy-abortion\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">not the first character to have an abortion on TV\u003c/span>\u003c/a> (shout out to soap operas!), she was the first character to do so in primetime television. Over 30 years later, Maude remains mostly alone in the history of primetime abortions, Dr. Christina Yang (Sandra Oh) on \u003ci>Grey’s Anatomy\u003c/i> and Becky (Madison Burges) on \u003ci>Friday Night Lights \u003c/i>are two exceptions. (Within this select group, most women on TV who have abortions are, according to KQED's own Lisa Aliferis, “\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2015/12/17/fictionalized-abortion-on-tv-no-mirror-for-real-life/\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">younger, whiter, wealthier and less likely to be raising children than the average American woman who has an abortion.\u003c/span>\u003c/a>”)\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Often when TV does depict abortion, it's a big and controversial deal. For instance, when Becky has an abortion on \u003ci>Friday Night Lights\u003c/i>, the whole town becomes hysterical. Becky’s decision even results in Tami Taylor (Connie Britton) being forced by the town to step down from her job as school principal.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFxvFF42LEM\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">While accidental pregnancies are a regular plot twist on network TV, it’s far more common for characters to go ahead and have the baby. This trope wraps sex into the productivity of the nuclear family (television’s bread and butter). You might recognize this plot line from \u003ci>Friends\u003c/i> (Ross and Rachel have Emma) or, more recently,\u003ci> The Mindy Project\u003c/i>.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Just last year, Mindy Kaling said that her sitcom \u003ca href=\"http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2014/09/04/abortion_on_the_mindy_project_mindy_kaling_says_it_won_t_happen.html\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">wouldn’t depict abortion because it is too serious\u003c/span>\u003c/a> (see \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2014/06/13/obvious-child-why-america-is-finally-ready-for-the-first-pro-choice-rom-com/\">\u003ci>Obvious Child\u003c/i>\u003c/a> for a great counter-argument about how to talk about abortion with humor and warmth). Thus, when Mindy got pregnant during the sitcom’s third season, she kept the baby, like many female characters before her. The show did not give her space to consider any other decision.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2GN3wdfqbA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Then in November 2015, Olivia Pope had an abortion in a primetime show watched by millions of dedicated fans.

Her choice, quite literally, argues that government has no place interfering in women’s bodies and our right to choose our own destiny, for ourselves and any potential children. If anything, taking this a step further, it also argues that government ought to protect this right and stop prohibiting safe access to care, something recent abortion laws have certainly not done. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">In one portion, the new Indiana law reads, “i\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"s4\">nformation submitted with respect to the disposition of a miscarried or aborted fetus that may be used to identify the parent or parents of a miscarried fetus or a \u003ci>pregnant\u003c/i> who had an abortion.\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"s1\">” There are several other typos in the bill, so this phrasing may be an accident. Even so, the implications are chilling: that a pregnant woman is no longer an autonomous being -- no longer a woman, even -- but simply a vessel for childbirth. It is a typo that feels too closely in line with the times, in which abortion and even miscarriages are stigmatized and criminalized. Donald Trump’s assertion that a woman who gets an abortion ought to be punished sounds outlandish. But, it is not so far afield from what we’ve already seen happen across the United States. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">The erasure of abortion on primetime TV, and television’s tendency to treat it as a spectacle when it does happen, is part and parcel of this violence towards women, which denies us both the choice and ability to decide what we do with our own bodies. This erasure reaffirms the idea that abortions are not normal, modeling once again that they are outside the scope of polite or appropriate TV content.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">By depriving imaginary women the opportunity to make active decisions about their own bodies, so too does television limit the ways in which we imagine ourselves and the choices available to us.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">This morning, those of us who believe in a woman's right to choose have something to celebrate: the Supreme Court has \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/27/483686616/supreme-court-strikes-down-abortion-restrictions-in-texas\">struck down abortion restrictions in Texas\u003c/a>. But victory has become an unfamiliar sensation, as of late. At the end of March, Indiana Governor Mike Pence signed one of \u003ca href=\"https://iga.in.gov/legislative/2016/bills/house/1337#digest-heading\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">the most restrictive abortion laws in the country\u003c/span>\u003c/a>, a bill so extreme even some \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/03/25/471842196/indiana-governor-signs-new-abortion-restrictions-into-law\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">pro-life lawmakers opposed it\u003c/span>\u003c/a>. Around the same time, Donald Trump suggested (and then recanted) that women \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/31/us/politics/donald-trump-abortion.html?_r=0\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">who receive abortions should be subject “to some kind of punishment\u003c/span>\u003c/a>.” The last few years have seen the curtailing of abortion rights across the US, from Tennessee to Texas, North Dakota, and most recently \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/04/23/this-is-our-proper-function-oklahoma-advances-measure-to-revoke-licenses-of-doctors-that-perform-abortions/\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">Oklahoma\u003c/span>\u003c/a>. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">I’ve watched these explosive conversations and laws unfold across the country with horror, as women’s bodies are used and abused by the political process. Missing from many of these political conversations are women’s voices and missing from the media landscape, from television to film, are representations of women who choose to have abortions, whatever their reasons may be. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">When TV shows attempt to stay neutral on the issue of abortion, in order to avoid offending an imagined conservative audience, they in fact take an anti-choice stance. Plot lines in which abortion is not considered as a reasonable option reinforce the spectacle and stigma around the procedure. That's why it's so important when shows like \u003ci>Scandal\u003c/i> offer diverse representations of reproductive choices, helping to normalize the scope of possibilities available to women.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Abortion’s absence in entertainment television is nothing new. \u003cem>Broadly\u003c/em>'s Briana Fasone \u003ca href=\"https://broadly.vice.com/en_us/article/far-from-reality-tv-the-changing-story-of-abortion-on-television\">writes\u003c/a> that, \u003cspan class=\"s2\">“until the 1960s, abortion, which was illegal in 44 states in nearly all situations that didn’t threaten the life of the mother, was absent as a plot line in television\u003c/span>\u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"s3\">.” \u003c/span>\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Fasone \u003cspan class=\"s2\">details this early history of abortion on \u003c/span>TV, which included news reports, a controversial episode of \u003ci>The Defenders\u003c/i>, and a Walter Cronkite special. Moreover, pregnancy itself has often been invisible on network television. For decades, women’s pregnant bodies have been largely hidden behind drapey clothes (see: \u003ca href=\"http://www.avclub.com/article/more-than-60-years-ago-a-pregnant-lucille-ball-cou-100629\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">Lucille Ball\u003c/span>\u003c/a>), tight camera framing, and even the occasional giant popcorn bowl. (I’m looking at you, \u003ci>Scandal\u003c/i>.) \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Even more obscure are storylines that engage and carry through with abortion in primetime network programming -- the most expensive and conservative landscape in television -- especially when the procedure involves a main character. Here, \u003ci>Scandal\u003c/i> made history in its mid-season winter finale, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” showcasing its central character choosing, without fanfare, to have an abortion. Olivia (Kerry Washington) wasn’t the first character to make this choice on television, but she is one of a very select few. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The show lost sponsors. Affiliates in many major markets refused to air the episode. Then, in 1972, there was the Bea Arthur sitcom \u003ci>Maude\u003c/i>.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/06/16991917_849842870001_img-100603-maude-rue-still-182846995684.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"alignright wp-image-28023\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2016/06/16991917_849842870001_img-100603-maude-rue-still-182846995684.jpg\" alt=\"maude abortion\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/06/16991917_849842870001_img-100603-maude-rue-still-182846995684.jpg 480w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2016/06/16991917_849842870001_img-100603-maude-rue-still-182846995684-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\">\u003c/a>In 1972 -- in line with the shifting tide signaled by the Roe v. Wade decision (1973) -- Bea Arthur’s character Maude\u003ci> \u003c/i>had an abortion. Although she was \u003ca href=\"http://talkingpointsmemo.com/cafe/cristina-yang-grey-s-anatomy-abortion\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">not the first character to have an abortion on TV\u003c/span>\u003c/a> (shout out to soap operas!), she was the first character to do so in primetime television. Over 30 years later, Maude remains mostly alone in the history of primetime abortions, Dr. Christina Yang (Sandra Oh) on \u003ci>Grey’s Anatomy\u003c/i> and Becky (Madison Burges) on \u003ci>Friday Night Lights \u003c/i>are two exceptions. (Within this select group, most women on TV who have abortions are, according to KQED's own Lisa Aliferis, “\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2015/12/17/fictionalized-abortion-on-tv-no-mirror-for-real-life/\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">younger, whiter, wealthier and less likely to be raising children than the average American woman who has an abortion.\u003c/span>\u003c/a>”)\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Often when TV does depict abortion, it's a big and controversial deal. For instance, when Becky has an abortion on \u003ci>Friday Night Lights\u003c/i>, the whole town becomes hysterical. Becky’s decision even results in Tami Taylor (Connie Britton) being forced by the town to step down from her job as school principal.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/tFxvFF42LEM'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/tFxvFF42LEM'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">While accidental pregnancies are a regular plot twist on network TV, it’s far more common for characters to go ahead and have the baby. This trope wraps sex into the productivity of the nuclear family (television’s bread and butter). You might recognize this plot line from \u003ci>Friends\u003c/i> (Ross and Rachel have Emma) or, more recently,\u003ci> The Mindy Project\u003c/i>.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">\u003cspan class=\"s1\">Just last year, Mindy Kaling said that her sitcom \u003ca href=\"http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2014/09/04/abortion_on_the_mindy_project_mindy_kaling_says_it_won_t_happen.html\">\u003cspan class=\"s2\">wouldn’t depict abortion because it is too serious\u003c/span>\u003c/a> (see \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2014/06/13/obvious-child-why-america-is-finally-ready-for-the-first-pro-choice-rom-com/\">\u003ci>Obvious Child\u003c/i>\u003c/a> for a great counter-argument about how to talk about abortion with humor and warmth). Thus, when Mindy got pregnant during the sitcom’s third season, she kept the baby, like many female characters before her.

In June of 1969, patrons at the bar fought back against police persecution — an event that’s widely seen as a watershed in the campaign for LGBT rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Raids like these were nothing new, but this time the patrons had had enough,” Obama said in a White House video announcing the new monument. “So they stood up and spoke out. The riots became protests. The protests became a movement. The movement ultimately became an integral part of America.”\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/ywtvJyXDWkk'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/ywtvJyXDWkk'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It also follows less than two weeks after 49 patrons at a gay bar in Orlando, Fla., were killed in a mass shooting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Creation of the national monument, which also includes Christopher Park and the surrounding area, required some complex land swaps. It had the backing of state and local officials in New York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Stonewall is finally taking its rightful place in American history,” said Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., who helped lead the effort. “We are faced with painful reminders daily of how much further we must go to achieve true equality and tolerance for the LGBT community, but honoring and preserving the stories of all of the diverse participants in Stonewall in our National Park System is a clear symbol of how far we have come.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2016 NPR.
