<description>&lt;p&gt;I&apos;m glad she is playing the race card. Columbia is getting just what they deserve. I hope Madonna gets her job back and I hope Columbia loses a lot of money.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Since she was found to be a plagiarist she deserved to get fired.  If she planted the noose herself, she is belittling the plight of her own people against racism.  Similar to women who would falsely cry rape -- belittling the horrifying experience of women who actually have been sexually assaulted and rendering the charge of rape less substantial.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;What a shame that the &apos;Negroes&apos; see themselves as victims most of the time. . . 
Poor &apos;Negroes&apos;- goin&apos; thru life bein&apos; so dejected.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;She&apos;s a hack. The noose may not have been a hoax...but she&apos;s a sorry excuse for an academic.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;That noose thing always felt like a hoax, and the idea that she was plagiarizing her work only furthers that.   I hope she loses the suit.  &lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Like #2, I always felt that she put the noose there to gain sympathy and publicity, and to cry &apos;racism&apos; falsely, as happens so often.
The plagarism charge makes it even more plausible.
Now this lawsuit nonsense.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;Did they ever find who put that noose on her door?
No, I didn&apos;t think so. Maybe because the plagiarist is also a racial hoax artist.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<description>&lt;p&gt;she claimed the school was conducting a witch hunt (though it should be noted two of her accusers were minorities--one black and one Asian).

But were any of them witches?  No.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
